Building a relationship based on trust, empathy, and respect is my top priority. I place a high value on relationships and believe that a positive therapeutic relationship is crucial to effective therapy. By creating a safe environment, I acknowledge that each individual is the expert on their own life. With this as a foundation, I strive to empower my clients to create their best lives. I am dedicated to putting the individual client’s needs at the center of my approach, recognizing that each client comes with their own unique experience and requirements. I believe that healing begins with acknowledgment, which involves two parts: - Becoming aware of our pain, understanding why we do things, and recognizing how we often interpret our experiences. - Having our experiences validated by someone with whom we have established a safe, empathetic, and caring relationship.

I am passionate about bringing personalized approaches to my clients as they navigate challenges such as anxiety, grief, self-esteem, relationship challenges, parenting support, anger management, emotional regulation, and depression.

Life is inevitably hard and full of challenges that can sometimes feel overwhelming. Stress, self-doubt, uncertainty, and fear are emotions we all face at some point. Whether you’re struggling with persistent anxiety, carrying the weight of past trauma, navigating difficult life transitions like divorce, entering adulthood, or dealing with loss, I’m here to support you. My goal is to help you unpack the challenges you’re facing and gain a deeper understanding of how your life story has shaped the way you see yourself and the world.

You can expect our sessions to feel natural, non-clinical, and safe. I offer a caring, curious, and non-judgmental approach, and I strive to build a secure, supportive relationship with you. I want you to feel heard and understood as we work together through whatever you’re going through. I believe that everyone has the inherent ability to navigate life’s obstacles, but sometimes, we all need a little support in realizing how to move forward.

I take a person-centered approach, which means I’ll spend time getting to know you and learning what works best for you, both in therapy and in life. My approach is grounded in empathy, and I’m deeply committed to walking alongside you as you find the strength to face life’s challenges. We’ll work together to find strategies that align with your unique needs.

I hold a Master’s degree in Counselling Psychology from Yorkville University and am licensed through the British Columbia Association of Clinical Counselling. Most insurance plans cover my services.

My own life experiences have been a driving force behind my decision to become a counsellor. I’ve been through a divorce, experienced the loss of loved ones, and navigated the complexities of raising children, so I deeply understand the pain and uncertainty these transitions can bring. While I’m open to supporting you with any challenge, I have a particular interest in life transitions.

When I’m not working, you’ll find me spending time with family and friends, traveling, or enjoying the outdoors. I love staying active—whether it’s skiing, canoeing, mountain biking, or playing volleyball. I’m happiest and healthiest when I’m with the people I love and in the beauty of nature.
