Are you struggling with overwhelming anxiety, depression, and difficulty coping with unpleasant thoughts and feelings? Are you finding that the things you once used to enjoy, such as sports/exercise, academics, art, or social interactions with others are no longer serving a purpose, like they used to? Sometimes, things may happen that are beyond our control or understanding, which may in turn affect the way we feel or behave. I believe in an integrative approach and meeting you where you are at. An overarching theme of my practice is based on you and your unique needs and strengths and helping you improve your quality of life.

People come to a place in their lives where they have been wounded in their relationships or experiences. Everyone has their story that has caused them to be in the place they are currently. And sometimes parts of our story interfere with us being able to move forward. We may find ourselves irritable, cranky, depressed, snappy, sarcastic, anxious, defensive, sensitive and protective. All of which are coping strategies for the hurt that has been suffered. These coping stances interfere with connections which is opposite of what we are longing for. All of us our craving to be in relationship.

I consider it an honour to walk alongside individuals through their journey to wellness. My hope for individuals is that they come to a greater understanding of who they are, learn effective ways of coping with life's challenges, and learn to embrace life's joys and beauty. I believe the client is the expert in their own life, and that my role as a counsellor is to be a sounding board or facilitator through the therapeutic process. I strive to develop a positive relationship with clients based on honesty, trust, empathy and authenticity, and I believe in creating a sacred, secure space for clients to feel comfortable and safe.

I've been in practice for clinical counselling since 2010. Over the course of time, I have adopted a practical and evidence-based approach to clinical counselling. Some of my areas of expertise are anxiety, depression, inter-personal relationships, family of origin challenges, career/work and trauma. I have years of additional training under my belt but I've found that it comes down to the relationship between the counsellor and the client. In this case, it's what you know AND who you want in your corner. I enjoy working with a variety of clients, and most especially those who are ready to do the work to get the life the want!

Hello dear friend. Thank you for taking the time to ponder my profile page. I trust taking this step was not easy but you did it. Way to go! Now for the next part of your journey ... Let's talk about being human. It’s a wild ride, isn’t it? Every moment is a dance with our inner and outer world. We have thoughts, emotions, and sensations constantly arising and passing away. We face challenges, make mistakes, lose people we love, and experience victories. In the midst of all this chaos, we often forget to pause and truly understand our human experience. But that's where mindfulness, wisdom and compassion comes in.

An innate desire to help and understand others, as well as several pivotal points throughout my personal life have led me to pursue a profession in psychotherapy and counselling. I am passionate about supporting individuals wherever they are in their respective journeys. I am dedicated to helping facilitate healthier lives for individuals and families within our community. To begin this journey, I obtained a Bachelor of Arts in Psychology from the University of British Columbia, followed by a Master of Arts in Counselling Psychology from Yorkville University. My professional experience comprises work with adults, teens & children.

Welcome! I am so happy that you dropped by to view my profile. I hope that you will see through the various information that my strong desire is to connect with each individual to create a safe space for you to talk about your struggles, needs, and goals for counselling. My approach is client-centered and driven by you, the client. My hope is to come alongside to support and empower you to become the best version of yourself - owning your story (past, present, and future).

My hope is to make you feel safe and connected as we work together. I prioritize showing up authentically so you can feel free to do the same. Within you exists a whole host of feelings, sensations, and wisdom. However, most of us have not been taught how to access these inner resources. As a result, we find ourselves disconnected from our bodies, experiencing anxiety or depression, and coming up with other creative ways to avoid or defend against thoughts and emotions that can feel intolerable. Much of our work together will be about slowing down to notice and experience emotions in a new and corrective way.
