Alberta Blue Cross Therapists in Vancouver, BC
You may be feeling emotionally overwhelmed, stuck, or disconnected from yourself. On the outside, you may be functioning and holding things together, but internally things feel heavy, confusing or hard to manage, especially in your relationships.
Many clients come in navigating emotional or narcissistic abuse, anxiety, grief, life transitions, recurring relationship patterns, or difficulty with boundaries and self-trust.
In our work together, we slow things down to understand what’s happening beneath the surface; your emotional patterns, triggers, and responses. This creates space for clarity and a more grounded inner relationship.

I support individuals who have experienced trauma (10 years of experience), including childhood trauma, acute events, and culturally rooted stressors.

I also support couples and families, especially those with one or two neurodivergent members (e.g., ADHD, Autism, PDA), and/or who are navigating parenthood, as well as past or recent traumas that may keep them stuck in the same arguments, feeling disconnected from each other.

Many capable, self-aware adults struggle with anxiety that shows up most in relationships — overthinking, people-pleasing, fear of abandonment, or feeling “too much” and yet not enough. I specialize in attachment-focused therapy for those who want to understand why they react the way they do and how to feel more secure. Together we calm the nervous system, untangle old patterns, and build lasting emotional security so you can experience steadier, more connected relationships — including the one you have with yourself.

Are you going through a transition that feels bigger than you expected? Maybe it's a career change, retirement, a relationship shift, or a period of burnout where your usual ways of coping aren't working anymore. If you're someone who feels deeply and tends to carry the weight of change more than most, these times can feel especially overwhelming.

I support deep-feeling individuals and couples in exploring and regulating their emotions, reconnecting with their bodies, and healing trauma, attachment wounds, and self-doubt. I work with those navigating the challenges of life transitions, loud self-criticism, questions of identity & values, and patterns of perfectionism & people-pleasing. I also support child-free individuals who feel they constantly have to defend their choices. For couples: using relational self-awareness, somatic practices, and practical tools, we’ll work to identify conflict patterns and underlying emotions, improve communication, and repair past hurts.
