Online Therapy for Penticton, BC
Village Wellness Therapy offers online counselling for adults in Penticton and across British Columbia.
Many of the clients we work with are navigating eating disorders, disordered eating, burnout, body image concerns, anxiety, or the internal pressure of holding everything together for everyone else. Therapy offers a space to begin to feel supported, untangle patterns, and begin relating to yourself differently with more honesty, steadiness, and self-trust.
Our approach is relational, depth-oriented, and non-pathologizing. Rather than focusing only on symptom reduction, we look at the wider emotional, relational, and nervous system patterns underneath what you're experiencing. You are seen as a whole being: body, mind, soul, and environmental context.
Sessions are offered virtually for clients located in Penticton, Summerland, Naramata, and throughout BC.
About Village Wellness
At Village Wellness, we believe care should be both intelligent and deeply human. We support mind, body, and soul as one interconnected, living system. Our bodies are not machines to be managed; they are part of nature itself.
We’re here for women seeking grounded, evidence-informed care that honours their biology, intuition, and autonomy. No quick fixes, no numbing: just real, relational support that helps you reconnect with your body’s own intelligence.
Because true wellness restores sovereignty: the quiet knowing that you are free to change your circumstances, your story, your life.
Once, care was woven into the rhythm of the village; shared, trusted, alive. Village Wellness exists to remember that way of being: where health and belonging meet, and where modern care finds its old, human heart.
About Julia Webster, MCP, RCC
Therapist and Founder at Village Wellness
Hi, I’m Julia,
I’m a Registered Clinical Counsellor, endlessly passionate about the possibilities in creating a world lived from the heart.
My work is a true weaving of the practical and the subtle. My professional training and education have always revolved around possibility, alchemy, and the quiet miracles that unfold in healing, likely long before I consciously knew that to be true. I studied psychology alongside an anthropological perspective on religious studies, with a focus on various mystical traditions. I hold a Master’s in Counselling Psychology and have training in yoga and meditation facilitation.
From a young age, I’ve felt at home moving between worlds. That quality helps me connect with and understand many different human experiences. My approach to healing and change is creative, compassionate, relational, and intuitive. In my therapeutic work, I draw from several modalities, including Existential Psychotherapy, Depth Psychology, Emotion-Focused Therapy, mindfulness, and ongoing training in energetic and nonverbal healing and communication practices.
My understanding of eating disorders is both personal and professional. For many years, I was at war with my body in nearly every way. The process of finding my own way forward to a truly peaceful relationship with my body and myself has shaped how I work with others, allowing me to see beyond textbooks and labels, and to help people return to a sense of home within themselves. All of my work is shaped as much by my studies as by every life experience that has brought me to deep and transformative places; experiences that continually expand my capacity to see, hold, and be in awe of the people I have the privilege to work with.
I’ve worked with adults and teens navigating eating disorders and disordered eating, suicidality, anxiety, depression, self-harm, grief, major life transitions, relationship challenges, and more, within the full spectrum of what life brings. My hope is always to support the people I work with in cultivating a more peaceful and sovereign relationship with themselves: one rooted in trust, choice, and the quiet intelligence of nature. I believe healing is less about fixing and more about remembering our innate wisdom and belonging within the living world.
