Gunjan Kundhal
MPCC-Provisional
Associate Counsellor
Gunjan Kundhal is a registered Master Practitioner Clinical Counsellor (MPCC – Provisional). She brings a grounded, compassionate, and relational approach to counselling, supporting individuals navigating trauma, identity transitions, grief, emotional regulation, and relational challenges. Gunjan’s work is rooted in deep respect for each client’s lived experience and inner wisdom.
Drawing from Internal Family Systems (IFS-informed), Person-Centered, Somatic, and Existential approaches, Gunjan tailors therapy to meet each client where they are cognitively, emotionally, culturally, and somatically. She believes healing is not about fixing what is “broken,” but about creating safety, curiosity, and choice so clients can reconnect with themselves and move toward integration and self-leadership.
Gunjan has a strong interest in working with clients impacted by trauma, attachment wounds, identity exploration, cultural displacement, grief and loss, and emotional overwhelm. Her counselling style is warm, attuned, and collaborative, offering clients a steady presence where vulnerability is met with respect rather than judgment. Somatic awareness and nervous system regulation are woven into her work to support clients in reconnecting with their bodies and expanding their window of tolerance.
As a Punjabi Canadian woman and a member of the 2SLGBTQIA+ community, Gunjan practices with a high degree of cultural humility and trauma-informed awareness. She is especially mindful of how systemic oppression, cultural expectations, and identity-based marginalization can shape mental health and relational patterns.
Before entering the counselling field, Gunjan built a diverse professional background in healthcare settings, simulation-based training for social workers and law enforcement, hospitality leadership, and the performing arts. These experiences have strengthened her capacity for attunement, emotional regulation, clear communication, and holding complex relational dynamics, skills that translate directly into the therapeutic space.
Gunjan views counselling as both a professional discipline and a relational practice. She strives to create a therapeutic environment that feels safe, grounded, and deeply human, where clients are supported in exploring meaning, agency, and inner resilience at their own pace. Whether working through grief, identity questions, or relational patterns, Gunjan walks alongside clients with care, curiosity, and integrity.
The Mountainside Wellness team is committed to providing compassionate, inclusive, trauma-informed, queer-affirming, and neurodivergent-affirming mental health services that recognize the unique lived experiences of every individual who reaches out for support.
Our team values authenticity, collaboration, accessibility, and creating emotionally safe spaces where clients can feel heard, respected, and supported without judgment. We recognize that many individuals have had difficult or invalidating experiences within healthcare and mental health systems, and we strive to provide care that is human, respectful, individualized, and grounded in both professional knowledge and lived experience perspectives.
The Mountainside Wellness team supports individuals, couples, professionals, neurodivergent individuals, 2SLGBTQIA+ community members, disabled individuals, and people navigating mental health challenges, addiction, trauma, burnout, anxiety, depression, grief, relationship concerns, emotional overwhelm, and life transitions.
Our services are designed to support a wide range of experiences, identities, and support needs while recognizing that every person’s story is different. We aim to create inclusive and affirming therapeutic relationships where clients can safely explore their experiences, emotions, identities, strengths, challenges, and goals at a pace that feels supportive and collaborative.
Yes. Mountainside Wellness is committed to providing queer-affirming, disability-affirming, and neurodivergent-affirming care that respects and validates the experiences of 2SLGBTQIA+ individuals, disabled individuals, and neurodivergent clients without pathologizing identity or difference.
We understand that many individuals within marginalized communities have experienced stigma, discrimination, masking pressure, healthcare barriers, family rejection, or invalidation within traditional systems. Our team works to create supportive and inclusive environments where clients can feel emotionally safe, respected, understood, and empowered throughout the counselling process.
Yes. Members of the Mountainside Wellness team provide virtual counselling services for clients across British Columbia, Canada, and internationally in English depending on the service being requested and the location of the client.
Online counselling provides flexible and accessible support that allows individuals to access services from the comfort and privacy of their own environment. Many clients find virtual services more accessible because they reduce barriers related to transportation, mobility, work schedules, sensory sensitivities, anxiety, childcare, or geographic location while still allowing meaningful therapeutic work to occur.
Choosing the right counsellor is a personal decision, and finding a therapist who feels supportive, safe, and aligned with your needs can play an important role in the counselling experience. Different team members may have unique approaches, specialties, lived experiences, training backgrounds, and areas of focus.
Individuals are encouraged to review team member biographies, areas of specialization, and therapeutic approaches to help determine who may feel like the best fit. Many clients find that connection, communication style, comfort, and feeling understood are just as important as clinical expertise when building a positive and effective therapeutic relationship.
Members of the Mountainside Wellness team may incorporate a variety of therapeutic approaches depending on the needs of the client, including person-centred therapy, trauma-informed approaches, cognitive behavioural therapy, solution-focused approaches, strengths-based counselling, neurodiversity-affirming approaches, and emotionally supportive therapeutic practices.
Therapy is not one-size-fits-all, and different individuals may respond better to different approaches, communication styles, and therapeutic techniques. Our team focuses on creating individualized and collaborative support plans that respect each client’s lived experiences, goals, identity, values, and comfort level throughout the counselling process.
Sliding scale options may be available for uninsured individuals and members of marginalized or underserved communities depending on counsellor availability and service capacity. Mountainside Wellness believes that access to mental health support should be more accessible and inclusive whenever possible.
Financial barriers can prevent many people from accessing counselling services, particularly within queer, disabled, neurodivergent, and marginalized communities. Individuals who are interested in reduced-cost services are encouraged to contact Mountainside Wellness to discuss available options, supports, and current availability for sliding scale counselling.
