Maybe you’re here simply because you need a place to catch your breath. I offer a creative sanctuary for that pause. As a Certified Level 2 IFS, Trauma, and Art Therapist, I provide more than talk therapy; I hold space to move through parts that feel overwhelmed, anxious, or in emotional and physical pain. Whether in my Burnaby studio or online, we integrate counselling with the tactile language of clay and art (no experience necessary) to reach depths where words alone cannot touch. Drawing on my extensive life and professional experience, I help you meet the “full catastrophe of living” with curiosity, resilience, and care.
I invite highly sensitive individuals, those wishing to explore neurodiversity, parentified children, people navigating trauma, anxiety, depression, stress of immigration, legacy burdens, or parenting challenges to receive support and practical tools. Our work is deep, creative, and often enjoyable—healing can be a truly fascinating and liberating journey.
The best time to begin therapy is now. Many wait until they feel ready, but therapy is here for those challenging moments. You do not need to wait any longer to get help. Come as you are. If you are interested in IFS work, clay or art-based therapy approaches, please reach out to learn more and take the first step toward meaningful change

The unique Integrative Creative Therapy approach, a combination of counselling, IFS, art therapy, and mindfulness, allows my clients to get in touch with their inner wounds and processes in a gentle but profound way. After a few initial sessions, most clients report feeling lighter, more focused, and having better clarity, energy, and connection to the self.
