Dr. Pinaud is a registered Clinical Counsellor (BCACC#1992) based in North Vancouver, British Columbia, who specializes in relationship issues.  He counsels couples, families, and individuals who may wish to improve their ability to communicate, may have had problematic experiences in the past or are looking to be successfully involved in long-term, committed relationships.

Over 20 years ago, Dr. Pinaud went through a difficult divorce. At that time he enrolled in a course called “Rebuilding” by Dr. Bruce Fisher, which became the catalyst for his significant personal growth and sparked an interest in psychology. After first taking the training to become a facilitator for this course, he then furthered his education leading to the completion of a Master’s Degree in Psychology and a Doctorate in Counselling Psychology. Dr. Pinaud continues to have a passion for learning and professional development.

Dr. Pinaud facilitated group sessions for divorced couples and parenting groups. Currently, he focuses on working with clients from an office conveniently located in North Vancouver’s Lower Lonsdale area within walking distance to the SeaBus. As well as his own private practice, Dr. Pinaud is a member of a group of therapists with various specialties and can provide referrals when appropriate.
