To conceptualize therapy, the following might be a helpful picture. Several years ago, we decided to hatch our own chickens. After a couple of weeks, we candled the eggs to get a glimpse inside. The glimpse was amazing and mysterious—we could see life happening beneath the shell. This is what often happens in a counselling session; we look beneath the “shell” and get a glimpse of the mystery and complexity of the human experience. From this deeper looker inside, we have many choices and changes that are possible.
I am a Registered Clinical Counsellor and a person-centered therapist. I received my Masters in Counselling from the University of Northern British Colombia and currently live in Nanaimo. I welcome new clients who are families, couples, adults and kids (age 4-18).
I believe change is possible. If you are feelings stuck in life, if you are needing help in your relationships, if you are feeling overwhelmed; it would be my honour to walk alongside you in a counselling relationship.
