ComPsych Therapists in West Vancouver, BC

Hello and thank you for visiting my profile! You may be dealing with relationships, family conflict, working through challenging thoughts, emotions and behaviours related to the past, present and future, or exploring career change. You may be experiencing anxiety, frustration, numbness, stress, self-esteem issues, or struggling to get things done at home, work, or postsecondary school. My practice is guided by compassion, openness and grounding while supporting you on your healing journey.

Are you stressed? Anxious? Feeling overwhelmed by your emotions? Please know that I'm here to offer support in a non-judgmental space where you can feel truly heard. As each person is unique, my approach is tailored to your specific needs and what resonates with you. Originally from France, I provide counselling in both English or French, using various therapies such as Somatic Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Narrative Therapy, Brainspotting, Internal Family Systems Therapy (IFS), breathwork, and mindfulness practices.

I'm passionate about helping my clients better understand themselves. This self-awareness is the key to overcoming difficult emotions such as anxiety, depression, low mood, stress, and overwhelm. Sometimes they come to me just feeling stuck, unmotivated, and unsure of how to move forward. I work with them to find the reasons behind these challenges and then step on the path to healing. I am fascinated by people and the uniqueness of their life experiences, so the most important aspect for me is to build a trusting relationship with my clients so they feel safe, accepted, and comfortable opening up about whatever is on their minds.

I am an Associate with Stewart Counseling, a trauma and cognitive behavioral therapist serving healthcare and technology professionals, fire fighters, first responders, military veterans, front line workers, First Nations peoples, visible minorities, LGBTQ2S people. My practice consists of extending progressive psychotherapy and clinical social work services to a diversity of individuals, groups and communities struggling with complex forms of trauma/PTSD, bereavement and grief concerns, depression, anxiety, substance abuse, mental health disorders, divorce and custodial disputes, bullying, discrimination and social alienation,

Finding a balance between our own needs and the expectations of others can be a difficult task. Factors like trauma, anxiety, depression, or relationship issues can make it even more challenging to stay true to ourselves. If you're experiencing doubts, low self-esteem, shame, or simply looking to understand yourself better and live more authentically, I'm here for you. Together, we can work towards finding a renewed sense of understanding, connection, and direction in your life.

You know the pain of feeling stuck. You've done everything you think you 'should' to make the situation better but things still aren't working out the way they should. You don't know what you're doing wrong. Perhaps you can't shake the feeling that there's something else out there for you but duty, responsibility and obligation keep you in the same situation. Maybe you long to do something different but the fear of what might happen stops you from making the changes you really would like to make.

Your emotions are valid…feel them. It’s okay to feel overwhelmed. It’s common for transitions in life to bring up heavy emotions. This heaviness may be surfacing for you as feelings of being stuck, anxiety, frustration, hopelessness and even fear. You are taking the first step in acknowledging these difficult experiences and seeking support in working through them to live a more fulfilling life.

Struggling with emotions or life changes? Our counselling practice provides an empowering solution to overcome obstacles and achieve purpose. We create a nurturing environment for you to explore emotions. Together, we craft tailored strategies for growth, guiding you at every step. Whether it's battling anxiety, overcoming depression, addressing relationship concerns, or feeling constrained in life, our dedicated team empowers you with clarity and guidance.

The focus of my practice is supporting Caregivers. People who are spending time & energy dedicated to the wellbeing of loved ones (family of origin or chosen family). It could be caring for young children, an aging parent, a sick partner, a sibling with a disability, a friend in recovery etc. I know from my own lived experience that care work has its own very unique challenges. And I draw on what I’ve learned, both personally and professionally, to create a counselling experience to meet your specific needs.

I support clients in all areas of life including: anxiety, stress, overwhelm, depression, grief, trauma, burnout or any other challenges that come along with the human experience. My approach to counseling involves deep listening and powerful questions that empower you to discover answers and insight on your own. I remain deeply curious alongside of you and ask questions to help you find the insight you might be looking for. I will gently challenge you if there are limiting beliefs standing in your way of healing and we will work together in a compassionate way to resolve them and bring more ease into your life.

There are no clinical issues that I am not comfortable with. I will hold space for whatever you bring and especially enjoy peeling back the layers of those with childhood trauma who find it impacts their ability to experience safe relationships as adults. I can help with issues related to addiction, and the fall out effect on families and relationships. I really enjoy helping people deal with personal impact of narcissism, BPD and emotional regulation disorders in a parent, children or spouse. I also welcome those with BPD and Quiet BPD. I can also help anyone caught in the turmoil of infidelity. You will find clarity with me.
