Do you feel like you’ve reached your breaking point, yet aren’t breaking through to the next level? Maybe you fluctuate between feeling scattered or paralyzed when it comes down to keeping up with everything. You might feel stuck when it comes to improving your relationships, career, or self-care. From the outside it can look like you don’t care enough, lack motivation, or are just not trying. We know that isn’t true. You are self-aware, especially about the kind of life you want, and who you’d love to be.

You are a naturally curious free spirit, yet you feel confined by societal, cultural, or familial expectations that prevent you from being your true self.

Conflicting advice on how to live leaves you confused, and you're ready to break through these barriers to live in a way that is meaningful to you.

Life doesn’t always unfold the way we imagined. Transitions, relationships, and the ups and downs of our inner world can leave you feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or questioning your direction. You may find yourself in familiar relationship patterns, feeling anxious beneath the surface, or noticing patterns like overthinking, people-pleasing, or struggling to set boundaries, even when you know something needs to change. Part of you understands what’s happening, but another part still feels stuck. Together, we’ll look at the patterns underneath what you’re experiencing, not just the symptoms, so change feels meaningful and lasting.

Are you feeling perpetually overwhelmed? Or maybe, are you feeling constantly shut-off and shut-down? If you're feeling in any way that life is too much, or not enough, that's enough reason to book a call.
Healing begins, I believe, when we’re finally able to make sense of our
experiences – the ones that have felt so distressing, and the ones that keep
us feeling stuck in our lives. A vital part is beginning to find the words to
express what before seemed inexpressible.

You’re exhausted from holding it all together. On the surface, you’re functioning, but inside, you’re overwhelmed, anxious, and unsure of who you really are. You overthink every decision, worry if people are upset with you, and feel like you’ve lost touch with who you really are.
If you’re tired of people-pleasing, perfectionism, and feeling like you're never enough, you're not alone, and you don’t have to stay stuck. I help thoughtful, self-aware individuals who are ready to stop living for others and start showing up for themselves.

Being in the nexus of something means you are right in the middle of it hence, easy to feel overwhelmed by the multitude of things coming at you. At Nexus, I will work with you within the context of a nonjudgmental, collaborative and healing therapeutic relationship to parse out and clearly see the interwoven links and connections that contribute to how you experience, perceive and interpret life's challenges, difficulties and obstacles. By understanding these connections, we can separate what is important to you and focus on your goal(s) to improve your mental, emotional and spiritual well-being.

I am also listed by FNHA and ICBC.
I am a real person living a real life, navigating oppressive systems, and fighting for a better tomorrow for all taking wins among the losses. I am a part of our shared struggle first, before I am a therapist.
Three things you might find interesting. 1. I understand how much this society sucks, deeply, personally, and systemically. I know how often the wrong side wins, how often people who believe in justice fight against yours, what it is like to face a roomful of people committed to misunderstanding you. 2. I use all my senses to "listen" to you. I do not buy into the "mind vs body" binary, but I do believe words are limiting.

I grew up in a culture where mental health was often overlooked and surrounded by stigma. That experience shaped my passion for counselling and my commitment to creating a space where people feel heard, understood, and supported. I believe therapy should be a place for healing, growth, connection, and self-discovery, and I welcome individuals from all walks of life who are seeking support.

You may be feeling stuck — caught in patterns you can’t quite change, struggling with anxiety, self-criticism, or the effects of past experiences. You might be navigating relationship challenges, communication struggles, or a sense of disconnection — from yourself or someone you love. Whether you’re seeking therapy on your own or with a partner, I offer a therapeutic space for you to slow down, understand what’s happening beneath the surface, and begin to feel calmer, more confident, and present in your life and relationships.
