I also believe that for positive, effective change and healing to take place, a strong therapeutic relationship is key.
Do you feel lost, stuck, or without direction and find yourself in a cycle of overwhelm, anxiety, and avoidance? Are you feeling disconnected from yourself and your vision of what you thought life would be? If your sense of self-worth has taken a hit and you’re struggling to cope and find a path forward, know you’re not alone. The way you’re doing things now doesn’t have to be forever – I believe we all have the innate capacity to heal, evolve, and ultimately live more authentically.

I have trained extensively in a therapeutic model called Narrative Therapy, an approach to counselling work that helps individuals to renegotiate their relationship to unhelpful stories and patterns and to connect with what matters to them in life.
Many of us have experienced the impacts of negative stories or beliefs about ourselves. These stories can serve to separate us from our preferred ways of living and being in the world. Have you had these types of experiences? Has this resulted in anxiety, depression, anger, low self-worth and/or despair or challenges with substance use? My work is focused on supporting you to renegotiate your relationship to these unhelpful stories. I am skilled at supporting people to (re)connect with their values, and hopes and to develop a new and preferred picture of themselves.

Struggles arise throughout life. Personal, professional, and relational challenges are inevitable and can leave us feeling defeated, lost, or confused with how to navigate life's complexities. Your experience is valid and so is your desire to work through difficult emotions, events, and situations that are holding you back. Burnout, anxieties, relationship conflict, and self-doubt are just some areas where you can improve through the support of a trained professional. Sometimes a safe space and listening ear is what we need to tap into our resiliency and become our empowered, self-compassionate selves.

One of the great therapists of the last 50 years, Irvin Yalom, wrote that "the relationship is the therapy.
My fundamental orientation to counselling is existential. At its heart, this approach doesn't distinguish between cognitions (thinking) and affect (feeling) and the somatic (body). Instead, it (and I) attempt to make contact with the whole of one's being. After all, we don't refer to ourselves as "human brains" or "human bodies" but as human beings. This is why talk therapy participates in healing the body, but it also explains why attention to the body can help heal what we generally call mental illness. And in the midst of it all, feelings are the endlessly rich source of information that help connect thinking to the body.

VCAWC is a Vancouver based counselling clinic with many experience counsellors as well as a low rate student clinic. We work collaboratively with clients to explore the concerns in their lives. Although our practices are influenced by many therapeutic models, we primarily offer an approach called Narrative Therapy. Narrative Therapy is a collaborative approach to therapy that helps to centre people’s strengths, values, abilities and hopes. We believe that all people have relationships to problems. Through counselling—a journey of exploration with another person—we get to re-author that relationship and choose how we want to be.

It's important to me that our counselling relationship be built upon collaboration, respect and rooted in a social justice framework.
Welcome, it can be scary to reach out for support and I respect your courage in taking this first step. I'm an RCC with over 20 years of clinical experience in a wide range of settings including community, public health and private practice. I see my role as a guide in supporting you with exploring and engaging in the change process. I assume all clients have wisdom and lived experience that has allowed them to survive. However, you may be wanting to move beyond "surviving" to living a life you prefer. I have extensive experience working with traumatic stress, substance use, grief, identity, occupational stress and life transitions.

In our sessions, I offer a warm, non-judgmental space where you can freely explore your thoughts and emotions, so we can create meaningful change together. While counselling can be challenging, I believe it should also include humour, hope, and comfort, making it a place where you can truly learn and grow. Many of my clients seek support during life transitions or when grappling with an inner critic and overwhelming emotions. I specialize in helping with anxiety, depression, ADHD/ADD, parenting and family dynamics, relationship issues, grief and loss, trauma, psychedelic integration, and career concerns.
