Therapists in Nanoose Bay, BC

As a Clinical Mental Health counselor I help clients with anxiety and depression understand how to heal their nervous system. I meet clients where they are at and we decide together the best course of action for moving forward. I am a trauma therapist and I help people to understand their healing journey. I provide tools for emotional regulation, and calming an overactive nervous system. I also provide tools for shifting beliefs and increasing well being daily. I use Safe and Sound an inner ear acoustic intervention that is evidence based and has been shown to calm an overactive nervous system which is so important for therapy.

Several times in life we are all hit with something that’s really tough. We feel terrible. We don’t like it. We want it to go away. We do a variety of things in an effort to feel better. Some of us withdraw, hide, or do other things that allow us to avoid the problem. Others speak up, attack, or try to control the situation. These things may help in the short term however, they can also create additional problems and then we find ourselves back where we began, often worse off.

I aim to help my clients, whether adults or youth, heal and grow as they move through periods of change. We accept private insurance plans, Victim Services(CVAP), ICBC Claims and Autism Funding.
