Relationship Issues Therapists in South Vancouver, Vancouver, BC
I incorporate mindfulness, self-compassion, and somatic awareness in my work with clients and understand the counselling relationship to be built on safety, trust, and hope.
I appreciate you showing the interest and courage to find a counsellor. Finding someone with whom you can be seen, heard, and accepted for all of who you are can be challenging. In truth, life can be challenging and leaves many of us looking for support in dealing with transitions, relationships, our sense of identity, as well as discovering what matters most to us. I believe that every person has incredible value, and despite challenges and pain, has the potential for healing, growth, and change.

Does the pressure to live up to 'good vibes only' leave you wondering if there's something wrong with you? We live in a world where disconnection abounds and vulnerability is shamed. Life hands us pain and expects us to put on a smiling face. Therapy with me is an attempt to provide an alternative: a space of understanding, safety and non-judgement. I believe that humans make change while in relationships that support empowerment, therefore I place high value on our working relationship. Working with me will allow you to have a space where you're nurtured, challenged, and seen.

During our work together, I will provide the space for you to re-construct your self-concept and understand your stress and your relationship patterns.
Life conflicts, trauma, and stress can steer us away from our core; it can also prevent us from living our best lives. Honoring your story and understanding how all of these hardships can impact your everyday life and your choices and life decisions is one of the effective ways to look inside ourselves. It will also provide you with a clear picture of what you are not satisfied with, what makes you stressed, and if your social relationships work for you or not.

I'm passionate about helping my clients achieve weight loss, health, and overall emotional wellness goals. Building self-awareness is key to overcoming difficulties that are associated with this kind of journey. Weight, anxiety, depression/low mood, stress and overwhelm are often interconnected, and sometimes clients come to me just feeling stuck, unmotivated and unsure of how to move forward. Together we work to uncover the reasons behind these challenges. One of the most important aspects is for me to build a trusting relationship so my clients feel safe, accepted, and comfortable opening up about whatever is on their minds.
