In Person Therapists in Ladysmith, BC

My clients come longing for stress relief, work and life growth, more personal connection, and better relationship health. They seek a better sense of self and self-care, or they're anxious about work, life moves, or family juggling. Many experience significant grief and trauma. Parents want support in helping their children to grow holistically with a sense of self agency, cultural fluidity, meaningful life insights, and innovative/creative energy. Some come due to conflicted family breakups and needing support with loving, developmental missing pieces and overcoming parental neglect or bypassing. Some seek life inspiration.

Are you or your child struggling with managing big emotions? Do you enjoy nature and the outdoors? Are you more comfortable in a natural setting than in an office?

I offer sessions both in person in Ladysmith, BC and virtually as well.
Sometimes in life we can feel stuck in patterns that don’t make sense but that we just can’t seem to change. Do you feel like you're hyper alert for signs of danger, feeling anxious? Or do you feel emotionally flat, only half alive? When you feel upset, do you find yourself with your back up, ready to fight? Do you feel like running away, escaping the situation? Do you find yourself frozen and collapsing, not able to act? You know you’re capable of overcoming these patterns, but how do you get there? The fight, flight, & freeze are survival states, hardwired into our nervous system through childhood trauma or overwhelming events.

Zoom and in-person sessions available Sunday through Wednesday.
I work in an integrative way. What we do and how we approach it will depend on what works best for you and what you need at this time. Some people know exactly what they want to work on. Other people come because something doesn't feel right or they're not functioning as well as they could but they're not sure at first why that is. Others come even though things are going well but they'd like to develop greater awareness or fulfilment in life. We will work together to develop an approach that suits you.

I'm accepting new clients in-person as well as online.
I empower young adults and women experiencing burnout, trauma, anxiety, and depression—especially those who are highly sensitive, creative, empathetic, or introverted. In our overstimulating world, it's easy to fall into unhealthy patterns or relationships in an effort to feel a sense of belonging. Through talk therapy and creative approaches, I help ground the nervous system, creating space for healing and peace to begin.

I have dedicated the past i5 years of my life to working with First Responders. Before opening up my own practice I served as the Director of Trauma and Spiritual Care at a Treatment Centre located on Vancouver Island. I have met many people who have been my teachers. They have been struggling with PTSD, emotional dysregulation, depression, anxiety, loss of instinct of purpose. Some have been struggling with loss and grief not knowing how to grieve in a healthy manner. Others have been struggling with intense fear and self doubt knowing that change needs to happen in their lives and not knowing how to move forward.

I have immediate openings for in-person and online appointments and am available Tuesday to Friday, including Tuesday and Wednesday evening.
Like many people, I grew up in an environment where we didn't talk about our struggles and emotions. From an early age, I learned to keep the difficult things inside and deal with my emotions on my own. In 1999, I became a crisis phone counsellor and realized that I wasn't the only one who had had this kind of experience. I realized that a lot of people felt the way I did and kept their emotions inside. For the first time, I learned how healing it could be to share struggles with supportive people.

As a counsellor I show up just as I am and offer a genuine, heartfelt, relaxed environment with very little clinical feel. I intend to do this so that you will feel as comfortable walking into my office as you would walking into a friend’s living room.

I typically work with individuals ages 13 and over with various mental health concerns from struggling with day to day life from home, work, school, to relationships, high level athletes, to addiction and recovery. This is about you and your needs.
