Get the support you need to realize your goals.

Come as you are. I'll meet you where you're at.

Hi, I’m Beckham Ronaghan.

I'm a Registered Social Worker with a Masters of Social Work offering virtual therapy to patients across British Columbia.

Everyone has the ability to change. This is your process; I am here to guide you toward your goals. With my clinical knowledge and personable approach, we will work together to figure out a plan forward.

My Areas of Specialty

  • Addictions

    I use a trauma-informed harm reduction approach to support you in your substance use goals. Whether you want to be completely abstinent or you want to be able to use intentionally, I will work with you from a place of acceptance and understanding.

  • Gender-Affirming Therapy

    You may be at the very beginning of figuring out who you are in the world. Or you may have figured out decades ago but you're entering a new life phase. I draw on both professional and personal experience to help you live with integrity and self-love.

  • Families of LGBTQ+ People

    Has your teenager told you that they are trans? Is your partner questioning their sexuality or gender? Let me support you in your unique role as a family member of someone who is figuring out a new or changing identity.

  • Concurrent Disorders

    Substances can be one way of coping. People are usually much more likely to find longterm success with their goals if both a mental health issue as well as an addiction issue are treated at the same time. I can help you do this.

  • Anxiety & Depression

    I use a skills-based approach to help you manage symptoms of anxiety and depression. We can work on strengthening strategies you already have or we can focus on building a toolbox from scratch. I'll meet you where you're at.

  • Chronic Illness

    Managing a chronic illness is a whole job unto itself. You may cycle through difficult emotions: overwhelmed, frustrated, hopeless, powerlessness, lost. I can support you in this long and difficult journey to find resilience and strength.

My Approach

Strengths Based

I will help you identify and celebrate all of your strengths. When we focus on our resilience and resourcefulness, life's challenges become less daunting.

Trauma Informed

Trauma affects all parts of our lives, whether we're aware of the impacts or not. I am trained to work with you to bring a gentle curiosity to your thoughts and beliefs, identify triggers, and build new ways of coping.

Skills & Solutions

Your time is valuable! I will make sure you are equipped with practical tools based in dialectical behavioural therapy (DBT) and cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT).
