SunLife Therapists in North Vancouver, BC
I offer a neuroaffirming, non-judgmental space where you can show up exactly as you are. My approach is grounded in therapies that are respectful of neurodivergent experiences—you won't find approaches here that aim to suppress or "fix" neurodivergent traits or that have been shown to be harmful, distressing or traumatizing. Rather than focusing on changing your behaviours, I work to understand them. Together, we'll explore what your nervous system is communicating, identify your strengths, build supports that work for you, and look at how your environment may be contributing to the challenges you're experiencing.

Do you feel like you are too much and not enough all at the same time? Do you hear the phrase ‘just love your body’ and you know deeply that there is more to that statement? Our society holds many messages about being acceptable and conforming while we just want to trust what’s right for us. Add into that all the ways we are taught to push down, set aside and outright ignore our feelings of grief. My practice is here for people seeking to develop a more trusting and compassionate relationship with themselves.

You may be someone who appears capable and put-together, yet feels internally stretched or disconnected. Perhaps you’re navigating demanding work, complex relationships, caregiving roles, or the after-effects of difficult experiences. You might feel overwhelmed, emotionally distant, or unsure why things feel harder than they “should.” You’re thoughtful and reflective, wanting to understand yourself more deeply, ease persistent stress, and relate to others, and to your life - with greater clarity, steadiness, and meaning.

Too many open tabs, a never-ending to do list, last minute rushing to hit deadlines and busy brain.. Sound familiar? Yes, you’ve managed to hold it all together, juggling all-the-things, pushing through and making it work. But lately, it feels extra hard. Maybe life’s shifted with more work demands, family needs, financial stress, or perimenopause. If you’re a woman with ADHD, the mental load can feel even heavier. Asking for support might not be your go-to... But, you’re starting to wonder if it has to be this tough.

Hi, I’m so glad you’re here.
Many people come to therapy feeling stuck or overwhelmed, unsure of how to move forward. Past trauma, societal pressures, and systemic imbalances can leave us feeling disconnected from ourselves and trapped in unhelpful patterns. The trauma we carry is not just personal, but a product of the systems we live in. As a result, it can be hard to see beyond the distress, or even know where to begin to heal. By exploring how trauma and systems shape your life, we’ll work together to address both the emotional and systemic roots of your distress.

I am a registered clinical counsellor and have been working as a counsellor since 2020. I offer clients a supportive place to be heard, validated, and to personally reflect. I believe that there are many life experiences that bring individuals into counselling. I am looking for clients who want to see a change in their lives, want to better understand themselves, and who want to heal from the challenges life has thrown at them. I enjoy meeting my clients where they are at and supporting them along their journey. I work with adults, families, couples, and youth.

I support clients who find themselves constantly worrying about how they’re being perceived, replaying conversations, wondering if they said the wrong thing, or feeling responsible for how others feel. In relationships, you may over-give, over-explain, or work hard to keep the peace, even when it leaves you drained or invisible. You might struggle with self-doubt, body image, or a sense that your worth depends on meeting others’ expectations. Deep down, you want relief from the anxiety, clearer boundaries, and a more compassionate relationship with yourself.
