Adults Therapists in Shaughnessy, Vancouver, BC
My practice focusses on adults who are themselves living with high functioning autism and/or HSP and/or ADHD. The sessions provide opportunities to talk in detail about one’s own unique experiences living with ASD or ADHD with someone who gets you. Engaging guided explorations lead to the revelation of blind spots and the discovery of ways to see things from new perspectives. Collaborative development of tailor-made strategies helps with communication, boundary-setting and the management of daily challenges. Sessions are free from judgement and you are supported to work at your own pace.

I support adults (individuals and couples) in creating a positive present-day experience, and in moving toward a future that is filled with hope and possibility.
The therapeutic counselling process is a unique and special interaction between two people. You are the primary person involved in this relationship. You are the one who knows where you are and where you want to be. I am here to work with you, to use my specialized training and understandings to assist you in your journey. My goal is to help you find your answers through your own wisdom and insights, and to empower you through your process. I will provide a safe, confidential and respectful environment, which will allow you the space to do so.

I see therapy as a journey of self awareness and liberation. As adults, we often assume we should have life figured out. Yet, we’re caught off guard when overwhelmed or lost. Truth is, life is complex, and few of us possess a manual for navigating it. Any combination of difficult life circumstances, unprocessed childhood hardships, not-yet-developed skills and unexamined values usually play a role in the underlying setup of our confusion and overwhelm. I help you tease out these contributing factors and grow your authentic self, so you can dream of a thriving life and take steps toward building it.

Everyone is unique. Most therapies attach a label to guide their choice of treatment. I believe that everyone has arrived at their issue through a series of experiences that have uniquely shaped their minds. I ask myself two key questions, what’s that about? And how can I use it? What this leads to is a way of working that is completely tailored to the client’s way of thinking. I fit techniques and interventions from a wide range of other approaches including CBT, Gestalt, NLP and positive psychology into a bespoke approach suited to the client.

My approach to counselling is a psychodynamic, person-centred, and trauma-informed approach. The psychodynamic approach can help us gain new insights into our lives, and by integrating art into the session, it can become a powerful mind-body-oriented resource for individuals to look into themselves, and at their concerns, from a different angle.

You deserve to be happy at work! I am a career counsellor who helps confused, burned-out, disillusioned individuals find clarity and hope. I love supporting folks who may not fit into the traditional career boxes because let's face it, not everyone has dreams of being an executive or climbing the corporate ladder! Using a holistic, flexible and creative approach I help folks figure out what is important to them in a career, what strengths they bring to the table, what fits and what doesn't, and how to find happiness and success in any future role. Clients say that they feel grounded and more clear after our work together.

A Registered Psychologist in Vancouver since 1980, I am passionate about exploring the subconscious mind, assisting my clients to clarify and accomplish their goals, personal and professional. My ideal client has some knowledge of themselves and is deeply motivated to change. Patterns that respond very well to hypnotherapy include smoking, emotional eating, addictions, phobias and insomnia. Hypnotherapy can clear sabotages to success, blocks to self esteem, blocks to creativity, procrastination, fear of public speaking, and help athletes achieve optimal sports performance. Relationships: I love to work with couples experiencing relationship issues, helping them learn to express and listen to each other from the heart.
