I work alongside my clients to help to improve their daily well-being and happiness. I support people with improving relationships, developing emotional regulation, improving communication and intimacy, trauma, anxiety, depression, parenting issues, attachment issues, substance use, and grief and loss. I also work with mind/body related issues and I am influenced by Eastern philosophy and yoga practices in my work. I provide psychotherapy for both individuals and couples. I am a Registered Clinical Counsellor, with a Master's Degree in Counselling Psychology. I have had a psychotherapy practice in Nelson, BC for the past 18 years.
I work with individual clients to improve overall wellness and mood. I support couples to find new ways to connect, and deepen communication. I practice trauma informed therapy and I have extensive cultural training. I am experienced in improving communication, cognitive behavioural therapy, mindfulness, grief, parenting, and much more.
I work to create a safe and supportive client-centered therapeutic relationship. I work with clients to resolve difficult family issues and find new ways to approach life. I work with clients to reduce anxiety and depression issues. I have experience working with Indigenous people, people from diverse cultural backgrounds, and the 2SLGBTQ+ community.

I work with clients around improving emotional regulation, reducing impacts of trauma, and improving day to day coping skills. We work together to deeply understand the self and personal needs, and the family of origin. From here, clients can find ways to create a positive life going forward.
