You have taken the first courageous step towards your goal by reaching out for counselling. My role is to work along side you to help you achieve self-compassion, self-understanding and renewed calm. I have witnessed my clients’ progress, particularly, their understanding of difficult life situations, with a new sense of direction and confidence. Clients come to me for an exploration of their important family and other interpersonal relationships, for trauma, loss or abuse counselling or to achieve specific shorter term goals. I work with individuals in person or virtually, and couples or families in person.

If you want to move forward in your life, change behaviours or unwanted patterns; restore a sense of meaning and purpose; build confidence and vitality; and learn healthier ways to cope with life's challenges... I believe I can help!

Not accepting new clients
Accepting new clients for video sessions. Support for overcoming anxiety, people-pleasing, building self-esteem. We may be a good fit if you can relate to one or more of these: You were told growing up that you're "mature for your age", you are a self-labelled "perfectionist" or "overthinker", you're there for everyone else and tend to put yourself last, feel guilty or ashamed about considering your own needs/wants, people around you seem to find just existing much easier than you do... Are your goals - be able to express yourself more? take better care of yourself? feel better about yourself? feel better in general?

I now have a sense of worthiness and peace that I never imagined possible. Whether you’re dealing with anxiety, self-criticism, relationship issues, or symptoms of trauma, we will co-create a compassionate container for exploration and healing.

You may find yourself dealing with challenges that have altered the structure of your life, as you knew it before. When things around us change, we can sometimes feel overwhelmed by the unknown and not feel prepared to adjust to new realities. These factors can trigger different emotions making us feel stuck or not able to move forward. My area of focus is diverse and includes; anxiety, depression, addiction, low self-esteem, grief, loss, unexpected life changes, crises, relationship issues, difficult family dynamics, health challenges, work, and school stress. My aim remains steadfast in helping clients find healthy ways to cope.

Seeking therapy is a sign of a personal strength, not a weakness. It takes awareness in our lives and courage to be able to reach out for help. Often people who engage in therapy are actually doing well in life but would like to do better in one area or another. I believe that the client is the expert on them and it is my role to support them to reach the goals that they set. Now excepting virtual clients in British Columbia.

I work with adult clients only for individual and couples therapy. I mostly work with anxiety, depression, stress management, spirituality, family/relationship issues, cross-cultural challenges, work-related stress, grief, and managing life transitions. Through lived experience and training, I strive to help those struggling with cultural differences and the impact this has on our everyday life decisions and goals. My personal journey has also been deeply impacted by my faith and want to support others to draw on their own faith for strength.
