Men's Therapy Centre

Today, I am asking for help with a heavy heart.

Every day, men across Vancouver Island struggle with depression, anxiety, trauma, addiction, relationship breakdowns, and thoughts of su***de. Many suffer in silence because they don't know where to turn, or they can't afford the support they desperately need.

The Vancouver Island Men's Therapy Centre exists to provide a safe place where men can heal, grow, and find hope again. Lives have been changed here. Families have been kept together. Men who once felt completely alone have found the support they needed to keep going.

But now, we need help.

Without immediate financial support, our ability to continue providing these critical services is at risk. Every dollar donated helps us keep our doors open, support vulnerable clients, and ensure that no man is turned away during his darkest moments.

This is not just about funding a program. It's about saving lives. It's about fathers, sons, brothers, partners, friends, and coworkers who deserve access to mental health support when they need it most.

At the Men’s Therapy Centre, we believe every man deserves a safe, compassion… Chris Pettman needs your support for Men's Therapy Centre - No One Left Behind.

Hello everyone! We are once again sharing our GoFundMe Campaign. Our current funding year has been hit hard by rising operating costs and limited funding options. The Men's Therapy Centre is a registered non-profit organization and a registered charity.
All donations help sustain the vital work of helping men heal from trauma.
Please donate today, and share with friends and colleagues.

We give our sincere thanks.

Your donation to the Men’s Therapy Centre helps create a safe, compassionate space where men can access professional mental health support, build resilience, and feel less alone in their struggles. Too many men face barriers to seeking help, and your generosity directly removes those barriers—funding counselling sessions, outreach programs, and vital resources that change lives. By giving today, you’re not just making a donation; you’re offering hope, understanding, and the chance for healing to individuals and families who need it most.
