People seek out therapy because they cannot live their lives in the same way anymore. Perhaps there was a crisis, a feeling of despair, or a longing for something they have never had before. Therapy is a place to reflect on the past, explore present experiences and create change to have a different future. Therapy is not for the faint of heart, but with the right therapist, you will have a guide on your journey to knowing yourself more intimately.

I am a member of the LGBTQ+ community and a Registered Clinical Counsellor licensed in British Columbia. Working with me you’ll begin to discover your unique sense of self that will help you navigate life's challenges with grounded confidence. I combine evidence-based interventions to help you build a personal 'tool kit' to approach your mental health needs on a regular basis. Overall, my clients notice an increase in psychological resiliency; an increase in confidence and self-direction; and a decreased desire to please others in a way that they lose themselves in the process.

I am both a Clinical Counsellor and Dietitian. I work with people to help create peace with food and their body. My clients are tired of struggling with food and their body. Perhaps they have struggled with disordered eating, or are currently struggling. They know diets and rigid ways of eating don’t “work” and they see the trauma of this way of eating has on their mind and body. So they seek a way of eating and being in their body that is less confusing and carries less judgement. That they no longer want to feel out of control with their eating. And they want to start caring for their body.

You might feel like you’re floating aimlessly in the sea of life with no direction or purpose, or perhaps life has handed you a few too many unexpected and distressing experiences, and you might feel like you’re treading water just to barely stay afloat. Even more, the expectations and standards of society, or the people around you might be making you feel even worse. If you’re feeling any of these ways, please know that you aren’t alone, and despite what society might tell you: nothing is fundamentally wrong with you.

Healing Waves Counselling was created to provide people with a different type of healing experience. We live in such a fast-paced society where we are constantly striving to compete, do better, and make more money that we forget to be present. We want people to be able to work through their trauma and have them feel comfortable in their own skin, to reconnect people with themselves, reconnect with nature and the earth. Reconnecting to the environment and our surroundings can be so healing and grounding. We are here to walk with the client side by side on their journey. They are the experts of their own

In the world of problems, maybe none are more worth solving than those that plague children and families. Over 20 years, I have dedicated my practice to solving these problems by counselling parents, children & families and assisting them through high-conflict challenges. In March 2013, the Family Law Act changed whereby it now is rightly focused on the best interests of the child and makes it possible for families to work with a parental coordinator who has judicial authority to make legally binding decisions. This alternate dispute resolution allows for a more effective process so that children of high-conflict families are not stale mated.

We all struggle with a variety of issues, at different times in our lives. Discovering the tools to manage these situations and being challenged in the way we think by a therapist who provides a safe space, and who cares about us, is a big part of what often helps people move forward. I believe Attachment Theory to be applicable to a wide range of concerns clients come to me with. When in therapy with me we will examine your attachment style, and I will have you critically think about aspects in your life you may have not previously thought about. I am passionate about my job and strive to achieve the best results for my clients.
