Crime Victim (CVAP / VQRP / IVAC) Therapists in North Vancouver, BC
Trauma does not always present as a single event or clear memory. It can appear as anxiety, grief, dissociation, relationship patterns, shutdown, or a life that looks functional while still feeling difficult to live inside. I primarily work with adults whose symptoms often point to something deeper than what is immediately visible. My role is to help clients process what has been carried emotionally, psychologically, and relationally so relief and meaningful change become possible.

I am a trauma-informed therapist, doing ongoing training on attachment, parts work, somatic techniques and nervous system regulation. I hold an EMDR basic training. I address depression, anxiety, trauma, grief, shame, guilt, dissociation through various approaches that resonate with the client towards changing their unhelpful, recurring patterns. I support clients to navigate life transitions, chronic pain, stress, low self-esteem and identity struggles. My intention is to help them release fear, regain their authentic self and unleash their full potential.

You may be someone who has spent years trying to understand yourself, your relationships, and your emotions, yet still feels caught in patterns you cannot simply think your way out of. You may find yourself overthinking, feeling overwhelmed, disconnected, or reacting in ways that don’t feel like the “real” you. Therapy can help you explore the deeper roots of these patterns, including how past experiences continue to shape your nervous system, relationships, and sense of self. Together, we can work toward greater awareness, regulation, and meaningful change.

Welcome! I specialize in supporting tweens, teens, and young adults of all genders. I am happy to work with adults too. To me, counseling begins with safety, empathy, and trust. Sometimes people need a non-judgmental ear, sometimes they need more specific approaches like EMDR, DBT, CBT, or coping skills. Either way, therapy is collaborative and customized to meet your unique needs, hopes, and goals. Challenges I specialize in include ADHD, FASD, trauma, anxiety, depression, child and teen-related issues, school and academic issues, communication, and the general complications that life can throw at us! I look forward to meeting.

My desire to serve the community in which I grew up in, has always been important to me. I have worked at overdose prevention sites, harm reduction residential facilities, suicide crisis lines, and employment family assistance program (EFAP). It’s been a privilege to work with such a diverse range of clients. Having lived experience as a first responder, I am aware of how trauma can profoundly impact the mind and body.

I believe that life has the potential to be beautiful and fulfilling. At the same time, I believe that life consistently presents us with challenges and that these challenges can ultimately serve and enable our own growth. I see counselling as the space where we can more fully understand ourselves and discover how to live our lives to the fullest. I believe that by taking such a position we can become more aspirational and creative rather than becoming stuck on and identified with problems. Through becoming more conscious and aware, I believe we can unlock ourselves, overcome barriers, and find creative paths towards living fully.

Life doesn’t always unfold the way we imagined. Transitions, relationships, and the ups and downs of our inner world can leave you feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or questioning your direction. You may find yourself in familiar relationship patterns, feeling anxious beneath the surface, or noticing patterns like overthinking, people-pleasing, or struggling to set boundaries, even when you know something needs to change. Part of you understands what’s happening, but another part still feels stuck. Together, we’ll look at the patterns underneath what you’re experiencing, not just the symptoms, so change feels meaningful and lasting.
