Surrey, BC V3S
I started my career in addiction where I was a Mental Health and Addictions Counsellor at FHA for 7 years.
There are many times in one person's life where one seeks support and information with resolving personal and psychological difficulties. Seeking counselling at this time will help break isolation and improve coping more effectively and quickly. Finding a good fit with someone is important to the success of the journey. I am trained in Feedback Informed Treatment (FIT) where a client directs the counselling relationship by the feedback they provide. I believe in the right FIT and relationship between client and counsellor to be of great importance in helping a client in counselling.

I work with people who feel lost, unseen, or silenced — especially those who’ve grown up in cultures where therapy is taboo or shameful. You may have been told to just “be strong” or “pray it away,” but you're still carrying emotional pain. You want relief, clarity, and connection — not judgment. My practice is welcoming, inclusive, and culturally responsive. I offer a space where you don’t have to explain your pain to be understood. You’re not alone, and healing is possible.

Are you someone who understands your patterns, but they still play out in ways you can’t seem to shift? You might notice them in relationships, where you overgive, people-please, or hold back parts of yourself. Also in emotional reactions that feel bigger than you expect, even when you know where they come from. You're not doing anything wrong, the shift just hasn’t translated yet. This is where I meet you. We slow things down, look at what’s underneath these patterns, and begin working with them in a way that changes how things actually feel, not just how they’re understood.

I'm glad you are reaching out. It can be tough finding the right therapist. Relationships can be very tough. Stress, kids, affairs, grief and trauma can create a distance between us and the people we love. We can cause a lot of harm to those closest to us and end up wondering how we got to where we are. This is the focus of my work. There is hope, even when things feel like they are at the very end.

Career Guidance Counsellors
How do I know if I need career counselling?
Determining whether a career counsellor is needed involves assessing one's current career and identifying what changes can be made to improve one's overall quality of life. In particular, feelings of loss of motivation, fatigue, anxiety, depression, procrastination, or ongoing levels of high stress can all be indicative of a need for career-related counselling. In addition, individuals changing jobs may want the decision-making support or self-reflection opportunities provided by a career counsellor.

Who can benefit from career counselling?
Anyone can benefit from the self-reflection, skill development, and stress management techniques that career counselling can provide. However, individuals who are feeling overwhelmed or burnt out with their current job and individuals considering a major career change may particularly benefit from career counselling to improve their wellbeing. Additionally, individuals who are facing issues in their current job, such as coworker relationship challenges or not meeting performance goals, may benefit from the perspective that a career counsellor can provide. College-age or young professionals may also uniquely benefit from career counselling as they make key decisions surrounding education and job training that will impact their career trajectory.

How long does career counselling typically last?
The length of career counselling can vary greatly depending on the needs of the individual and what type of support they are seeking Career coaching or advising services—which serve clients in a specific, goal-oriented capacity—often last for a shorter duration and are sometimes only a single session or a few sessions in length. In contrast, career counselling as part of a more integrative therapeutic relationship with a counsellor may last longer, particularly if the issues faced by the client are longstanding and/or more complex in nature; in such cases, individuals may expect therapy to last multiple months or longer.

How to prepare for career counselling?
Clients can prepare for career counselling sessions by outlining the specific topics they would like to address with the counsellor, such as current job challenges or hopes for the future of their career. Compiling one's thoughts on such topics often requires reflection on one's career and future goals, which in itself can be beneficial for session preparation. Clients may also want to put together a list of questions they would like to ask the counsellor, particularly if the career counsellor they are seeing has particular expertise in a given career area. Conducting research into potential future jobs, training opportunities, or support resources in one's area may also help clients prepare for career counselling by providing them with a background of what resources are available in their area.
