I am an ICBC provider and am covered by most health insurers.
I work with adults who feel stuck in patterns that no longer serve them - people-pleasing, self-abandonment, difficulty with closeness or conflict. Many feel anxious, overwhelmed, or shut down, and want more ease, connection, and a stronger sense of self. Clients come to me during times of change - relationships, life direction, midlife, peri/menopause, or retirement. They may feel lost, untethered, or ready to move forward in a more intentional way. Together, we slow things down and listen to what your system is holding. Here, I can help you build capacity, understand your patterns and reconnect with yourself and your truth.

As the daughter of low-income immigrants, I intimately understand the complexities of navigating bicultural expectations and growing up with limited resources. I bring firsthand experience that allows me to deeply grasp the complexity and importance of incorporating an intersectional framework. Growing up, I rarely encountered BIPOC representation, making it more meaningful for me today to serve as a woman of colour counsellor. I have consistently sought roles in the helping profession that involve supporting others. I offer various forms of support to families and individuals with a wide range of mental health needs.

I offer direct billing to many insurers, and am an approved provider to direct bill with the Crime Victims Assistance Program (CVAP) and with ICBC.
I specialize in disordered eating, and the complex relationships we often have with our bodies, food, and exercise. If you are experiencing (peri)menopause, postpartum, or other life changes alongside new or recurring symptoms of an eating disorder, we may be an especially good fit. This might be a new job, the end or start of relationship, or something else. These things can all trigger discomfort in the body, and my goal is to help you create trust and safety as through this growth.

I offer direct billing to Pacific Blue Cross (PBC) and ICBC.
I work with people through many stages of change — from feeling stuck, disconnected, or simply trying to get through the day, to those wanting to better manage challenges or enhance performance. Many are living with chronic stress, pain, injury, anxiety, depression, or neurological conditions looking for support in navigating these challenges and life transitions. As a former high-performance athlete living with chronic pain, I bring both clinical and personal insight into how physical health impacts mental health and identity.

Together, we will work to quiet your self-doubt, increase your confidence, reclaim your identity, and restore trust in yourself—helping you regain control of your life.

You look like you have it together. But underneath, you are exhausted. You overthink. You people-please. You keep finding yourself in the same painful patterns, no matter how hard you try. Some days you feel too much. Other days, completely numb. The anxiety lives in your chest, your stomach, your sleep, not just your head. Maybe you have carried family expectations or cultural pressures for so long that you have lost sight of who you actually are. You are not broken. You are someone who has been carrying too much, for too long, alone. And you are ready for something different.

I am currently accepting new clients. I help clients move through stuckness while developing a deeper, safer connection to themselves and their emotions. Many of the individuals I work with are highly self-aware but find themselves dealing with body-based anxiety or unresolved trauma that stubbornly persists despite their ability to understand its roots. My approach is trauma-informed, neurodivergent-affirming, and somatic. We will move beyond overthinking to address what is held in the body, build a resilient emotional connection, and create deeper, lasting change.

Please note that I do not work with ICBC, CVAP, or FNHA.
There are many moments throughout life that we are invited into deeper awareness. Often, these moments are catalyzed by experiences of profound suffering. You may be moving through a major life transition, processing an impactful experience, navigating relationship conflict, or experiencing loss of purpose. Many clients who seek an analytic approach are looking to move beyond conventional forms of therapy and toward profound soul work. Jungian Analysis can be a supportive container for those who wish to explore deeper ways of relating to themselves and others, and are open to the transformative power of working with dreams.

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. It’s as if you’re stuck in a box, longing to break free but unsure how. You seek to impact the world positively by giving love, kindness, and understanding, yet you also crave to receive what you offer. 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.

As a counsellor I collaborate with every client to understand the power of their story and for my clients to feel heard and honoured. I view counselling as a place for individuals to explore talk therapy alongside expressive arts to create space for understanding parts of themselves that at times can be hard to put words to. My approach in the counselling space is holistic, strengths-based, creative, and highly collaborative.

Chronic pain and trauma specialist. Maybe you've spent years searching for answers, trying treatment after treatment, only to feel discouraged and alone. Caught between pushing through and paying for it later. It makes sense that you grieve for the life you expected, feel uncertainty about the future, and are tired of navigating a world that doesn’t understand. Your losses are real, and the loneliness that comes from feeling misunderstood and disconnected from an imagined life. It may seem there is no relief from the struggle with resentment, frustration and grief as you try to come to terms with the impact of pain on your life.
