I am an RCC and somatic attachment psychotherapist with the BCACC. I specialize in adult ADHD, trauma, relationship issues, life transitions, grief & loss, anxiety, and depression. I work with individuals and couples. I strive to provide a counseling space that fosters safety, encourages growth, and supports each individual’s innate healing potential. I value allyship with the Indigenous and 2SLGBTQ+ communities. I focus on long-term healing by unpacking current triggers through finding the root cause which is often linked to deep routed childhood trauma.

My counselling practice combines a multicultural viewpoint, a client centred philosophy, humanistic values and cognitive behavioural strategies. I believe our culture influences the way people see the world and I will strive to understand your world view. I can offer you a safe, non-judgemental and genuine atmosphere to discuss your concerns. I believe you are the expert on your own life but that I may have some strategies to assist you. I am here as a guide, not to follow or lead but to walk beside you on your journey

Do you find yourself feeling stressed, overwhelmed and anxious? Longing for a sense of peace, calm, and hope? Life can be challenging, and if we don’t have the tools to cope- some moments it can feel downright impossible. Sometimes we need actions to take, and sometimes we just need someone to truly listen. As a therapist, I consider myself not only an educator and guide, but a fellow human being here to support you where you’re at.
