Relationship Issues Therapists in South Cambie, Vancouver, BC

Although the adults whom I assist come with a wide range of presenting problems - such as sexual dysfunctions, mental health issues, relationship conflict, and addictions, the underlying problem is that we are all suffering emotionally, longing to feel understood, and to acquire the tools that will relieve our distress.

If you're struggling in your relationships repeating the same pattern and in need of a way forward contact me today for your FREE 15 minute consultation. I am a relationship therapist whose aim is to help others gain insight into the problem patterns of behaviour we often fall victim to. Break-free of the painful cycles of the past. Contact me today to learn how you can enjoying the love and connection you deserve.

My work is deeply rooted in the core of who I am.  When you show up in my office you won't find a freudian style couch to lie on, a note pad in my hand, or a wall of credentials (although I certainly have those too!). Instead you'll get my authentic self, the healing relationship that we form, and probably some tea.

Are you feeling stuck, unhappy or unheard? Has your relationship ended or hit a roadblock? Are you managing a chronic illness or pain, or experiencing a sense of numbness, anger, grief or trouble with 'dating in the modern age'? I can help. I work with both individuals & couples to resolve challenges within their important relationships (work, friends, family, significant other/s) including the one with themselves. Because we are each a mix of past experiences and current circumstances, it can be difficult to really know our own voice; harder still to stand forward for that in ways that preserve what's most important to us.

I provide my patients with a safe, warm and judgment-free environment to discuss their most personal and intimate life struggles. Our sense of love and belonging is fundamental to reaching our potential. I work with children, youth, teens, adults, couples, and families who face a range of mental health and relationship concerns including but not limited to; anxiety, depression, anger, panic, ASD, ADHD, OCD, ODD, eating disorders, traumas, childhood traumas, PTSD, dissociation, parent-child/family/marital/couples conflict, parenting, tantrum, self-harm, low self-esteem, identity, grief & loss, addictions, and spiritual development.

Are you struggling with feelings of anxiety, self-esteem or unsure of your life purpose? Are you dealing with relationship issues with your partner, family member, friend or co-worker? Are you wanting to make real changes in your life, but aren't clear about how or where to start?

My approach is informed by mindfulness, Buddhist psychology, and contemplative practices. In my work with clients I tend to be open, creative, collaborative and down-to-earth. I specialize in anxiety and relationship issues, often working with individuals and couples who feel lost or trapped in difficult patterns. I believe that within every challenge lies valuable insight waiting to be unearthed. With greater clarity comes the freedom to live authentically and pursue meaningful connections - within oneself, with others, and with life.

Welcome! I am currently accepting new clients and am excited to join you on your journey toward becoming your best self. Do you struggle with relationship issues, parenting, anxiety or depression that affects your day-to day life? Do you feel overwhelmed by the thought that there’s no light at the end of the tunnel? Do you wonder if life could be better? In these uncertain times, many people are struggling to find their place in life and connect with others. You are not alone. I believe your story matters and it shouldn’t be so hard to live better.

My passion lies in helping my clients navigate their unique personal struggles and the impact of larger harmful or limiting social norms. I am deeply curious about my clients’ journey, and committed to guiding them towards self-discovery, stronger interpersonal connections, and realizing their goals and potential. I achieve this by offering valuable insights, reflections, and practical tools. Furthermore, sessions become an important place to practice the skills that you'd like to take forward into your life. Our time together is an opportunity to slow down, consider, and deeply feel things.

Life isn't always easy. Sometimes you feel at the mercy of painful emotions and ruminative thinking. You sense that you're meant to feel more ease and contentment in your life. Relationships are important to you; you crave feeling understood and accepted for who you are, but conflict and miscommunication can leave you feeling alone and distressed. Your way of coping isn't always the healthiest. You're starting to wonder if your desire for change is big enough to overcome your resistance to therapy.

As a relational therapist, I specialize in experientially working with self-discovery, relationship health, intimacy, and attachment trauma. I find what is often missing in our lives are the deeply attuned connections where we feel seen, heard, and understood. Generally, I operate from an intersection of attachment, neuroscience, plant medicine, and somatic frameworks. In my practice I welcome all individuals, couples, and people in multi-partner/poly relationships across the whole sexuality spectrum.

I want to commend you for taking the courageous step towards healing and self-discovery. You deserve support, understanding, and 100% attention as you navigate through this temporary challenging journey. I am here to create a safe and therapeutic environment where you feel validated, heard, and empowered to make positive changes in your life. I am committed to providing you with personalized strategies and evidence-based approaches. Remember, you are not alone. I am here to support you every step of the way.

I come to this profession by way of lived experience, having spent decades in deep emotional pain, always feeling I was never “enough.” Consistently engaging in counselling, as well as tools and psycho-education for trauma resolution, has led me to find safety in body I had once disowned. I now have a sense of worthiness and peace that I never imagined possible. Whether you’re dealing with anxiety, self-criticism, relationship issues, or symptoms of trauma, we will co-create a compassionate container for exploration and healing.

If you're tired of anxiety running your life, if your relationship has grown stale or is filled with conflict, if you're dealing with trauma or feeling stuck, empty or unhappy and don't know what to do to change your life, I can help. I will quickly get to the heart of what's not working for you and how you can change it. You don't have to suffer anymore. I've been a therapist and life and relationship coach for over twenty years.

I am a Registered Clinical Counsellor (RCC 15070) in British Columbia with seven years experience in clinical settings and 14 years in health and well-being. I have a Bachelor of Communication (Bond University), a Master of Counselling Psychology (Adler University), and a background in yoga teaching and yoga therapy that informs my holistic approach to mental health and well-being. I see many clients seeking support for unresolved trauma, PTSD, anxiety, depression, stress and burnout, and those struggling to find meaning and purpose. I engage in regular clinical supervision and professional development.

Are you rolling along in life? Something missing deep down, a feeling or sense of something that's not quite right? A feeling you can't explain or understand. After a few attempts to change how you feel, you repeat the same patterns. Do you feel like you put on a different mask every day to get through life? Does this sound like how you are living? Are you ready to take off all the masks, be authentically you and live your authentic life ? Together through this process we will unravel the challenges, not just live your life, but thrive!

The human experience can sometimes provide challenges along the way and it's natural to feel a little stuck or disconnected at times. We might come across feelings of shame, unworthiness, overwhelm, loneliness, frustration with what life has thrown at us and we don’t know where to turn. Through genuine warmth, compassion & presence, I try to cultivate a soft landing place for my clients so they don’t have to struggle with life’s circumstances on their own. While my roots are in AEDP & IFS, I use a holistic, trauma-informed, collaborative approach where I welcome all diverse parts of my clients to be witnessed in the light with me.
