The journey of healing and self-discovery can be challenging, but you don’t have to face it alone. My approach as a therapist is grounded in creating a compassionate and safe space where you feel deeply seen, heard, and supported. Together, we will build a therapeutic relationship that fosters your healing, growth, and exploration of the challenges and patterns that may feel overwhelming. You may be experiencing a racing mind, a sense of disconnection, or carrying the weight of tangled relationships and unresolved pain. Perhaps you feel stuck in cycles of exhaustion or are seeking clarity after years of navigating complex family dynamics. Together, we will gently unpack these challenges, creating space to heal old wounds and strengthen your inner sense of safety and empowerment.

For those drawn to nature as a source of healing, I offer nature-based therapy sessions in accessible parks. These sessions allow us to work collaboratively with the natural world, drawing on its wisdom as a co-therapist to foster grounding, insight, and connection.

My practice is informed by both my lived experiences and almost two decades of supporting individuals through times of crisis, pain, and transformation. I hold a Master’s degree in Counselling Psychology from the University of British Columbia and am a Registered Clinical Counsellor with the BC Association of Clinical Counsellors. My career has included extensive work in crisis support, mental health services, and community care. These experiences have shaped my deep understanding of the complexities of human experience and the importance of a holistic, trauma-informed approach. I bring warmth, empathy, and curiosity to every session, tailoring my approach to meet your unique needs and goals.

Choosing a counsellor is an important decision, and your sense of safety and comfort in the therapeutic relationship is my top priority. If you’re ready to take the next step, I would be honored to walk alongside you on your journey toward healing and self-discovery.
