Blue Cross Therapists in Vancouver, BC
This work is about helping you connect to your self so you can navigate relationships authentically and meet challenges with compassion and courage. If you want to slow down, get curious, and listen deeply, let's connect!
Our internal body wisdom is a source of information that speaks more than words. The patterns we hold and express reveal meaning and share a legacy of past experiences, often persisting long after they appear to support us.
Real change is possible when ALL of you feels safe enough to be seen and supported, just as you are. In the relational space we build together, you will discover what you need to move forward.

Do you feel distressed but don't understand why? Have you tried different methods and it only helped a little but never get ahead? Have you ever wondered what the core issue is? Working with me might find you those answers. A lot of people ask who gets counselling, I believe that anyone who experiences stress could get a therapist; however, many have amazing family and friends that allow them to bounce ideas, inspire motivation, and provides insight so counselling really isn't needed. Most people wait till they are in crisis to get help which would mean a rough journey to baseline. Let's be preventative rather than reactionary.

We will take care of direct-billing to ICBC, Veterans Affairs Canada (VAC), Sun Life and Blue Cross.
I work with people who carry responsibility deeply such as first responders, veterans, parents, creatives, and caregivers - often the ones others depend on. Beneath the surface, there’s often grief, burnout, disconnection, or a harsh inner critic that won’t ease up. My work supports people in making space for themselves again: emotionally, relationally, and spiritually. Whether you’re navigating loss, trauma, ADHD, parenting challenges, or looking into psychedelic integration, I offer a grounded approach to help you reconnect with yourself, explore the roots of what’s going on, and move toward more clarity, connection, and ease.

“This being human is a guest house. Every morning a new arrival.” Rumi’s words remind us that our emotional landscape is constantly shifting. Joy, sorrow, impulsivity, or an unexpected wave of grief can show up without warning, each feeling like a guest we did not anticipate. For those who experience intense emotional swings or who feel overwhelmed, lost, or caught in persistent sadness, these changes can feel unbearable. In moments like these, a steady and supportive connection can offer grounding and help navigate the uncertainties.

I am a Registered Clinical Counsellor and Art Therapist with over 12 years of experience supporting people through trauma, complex family dynamics, challenges in emotional regulation and stress in interpersonal relationships. I work holistically, integrating talk therapy with creative art process, somatic work, and hypnotherapy to meet the clients at where they are. Because trauma is something we carry in our bodies, my work gently supports clients in connecting with deeper emotional experiences, including those that may be hard to access through words alone.

Most of my clients are wired a little differently, and the work fits the wiring. I see neurodivergent adults and youth: the ADHD engineer who can build anything except a morning routine, the creative whose best ideas arrive at 2am while the paperwork never arrives at all, the parent trying to decode a kid who doesn't run on the standard operating system. Therapy with me is practical. We figure out how your particular brain actually works, then build strategies around it instead of forcing it into shapes that never fit. The goal: less overwhelm, more traction, and a daily life that feels like yours.

The human experience is infinite in complexity, diversity and meaning. The nature of concerns bringing a person into therapy can be too — It’s rarely as simple as a behaviour, a diagnosis, a relationship problem or a life event. I have over a decade of experience helping people work through a range of concerns including: difficulty in relationships, Trauma, Depression, Anxiety, BPD, C-PTSD, and Bereavement/ Suicide Bereavement. If any of these present a struggle for you in your life, or the life of a loved one whom you support, I would be honoured to hear from you and work together towards finding some healthy, sustainable relief.

Are you feeling stuck in a difficult relationship with food, your body, or yourself? Maybe you’re struggling with an eating disorder or body image concerns that affect your self-worth and how you show up in relationships? You might feel out of control, disconnected, numb, or at war with your body—especially under the pressure to look, move, or be a certain way? If you’ve ever wondered what it would be like to live without constant worries about whether you’re “enough,” I get it. I’ve been there too, and I want you to know: it doesn’t have to be this way. I believe it’s possible to reclaim your sense of well-being and inner strength.

Welcome- I am so glad you are here! Throughout our lives, we inevitably face periods of struggle, challenge, and adversity. The pressures of anxiety, the drain from repetitive behaviours, the pain of relationship issues, or the emptiness brought on by depression can make it seem hard to craft the life we aspire to. Yet, I hold a firm belief in your innate ability to overcome these trials, whether they are longstanding or newly felt. In working together, my aim is to form a unique connection with you: one where you can truly be yourself, focusing on where you’ve been, where you are today, and where you hope to be in the future.

Life can feel heavy when you’re stuck in patterns like anxiety, people-pleasing, or never feeling “enough” even if everything looks fine on the outside.
Many people I work with grew up in emotionally neglectful environments where needs weren’t fully met, and now struggle with boundaries, self-doubt, or guilt in relationships.
I offer a space to slow down, understand these patterns, and reconnect with yourself in a grounded, compassionate way.

There is always space for growth and self-improvement. Reaching out is not always easy, and opening your heart during difficult times can feel overwhelming. You may be going through something you cannot share with anyone. Depression can pull you into dark places, and you may need support, guidance, and tools to understand what is happening. Life transitions can be challenging, and you may be longing for your life and relationships to move into a better place.
