For over 40 years I've worked with individuals, couples and groups facing a full range of the many challenges that life presents such as: depression, anxiety, grief, addiction, couple conflicts, all manner of traumas etc. My clientele includes people from all walks of life, ages, sexual preferences, ethnic and religious backgrounds. In addition, I provide consultation and counselling to those wanting to optimize their talents and abilities. I see clients as social, physical, intellectual and spiritual beings, thus all of these areas are potentially addressed in our work together.

Are you craving a safe space where you can start learning more about yourself and your patterns? Do you find that the same challenges often come up in your life but you aren't sure how to move through them? This is very often what people describe when first coming to therapy. I firmly believe that our adult patterns are the direct result of painful or overwhelming experiences that we had as children. By making connections between the past and the present, we learn how to meaningfully change our lives.

I do not believe in pathologizing one due to their diagnoses, symptoms, or problems. As such, I offer a no commitment discussion to explore if I am someone who could appropriately support you. The most beneficial counselling/therapy is built off of a trusting and secure relationship. I am incredibly passionate about the counselling/therapy process and feel honoured when individuals choose me to walk alongside them in their healing journey. Deciding to reach out is not an easy step but it is the first step - I am proud that you are here. I am committed to inclusivity and being an ally and providing support to LGBTQ2+ individuals.

You and I together will analyze the conflicts and obstacles in your life, we will find and work with your personal fears and beliefs and set yourself free from them.

The poet, Mark Doty, writes: "What did you think, that joy was some slight thing?" The common view of therapy is that it's a place to unload & unpack the hardships & woes that burden you. Many of us are accustomed to thinking that joy is 'some slight thing', that our shadows are far more complex, dynamic & compelling. Contrary to this, my experiences as a therapist reveal to me how people's resilience, hopes & dreams are far more sophisticated & worthy of examination than the tricks & underbellies of their so-called demons. I am passionate about helping people reclaim joy & vitality; to find possibilities where they only see walls.

People with ADHD are bright, empathetic, and creative. We often struggle with harnessing our uniquely wired brains to fit into a world built for neurotypicals. We know we are capable of so much more, but we're functioning well under that capacity. Examples of the issues we experience include time management, organization, remembering things and motivating ourselves to do things. Other forms of mental illness may accompany our ADHD. However, with some support, we can improve our systems for functioning in ways that are actually fun. We can also improve our intimate relationships, which makes life better all-round.

As my mentors have helped me in my life, and as they have guided me through difficult points of self-growth and reflection, I have come to learn the value of being there for others to progress through our own difficult times. We need each other. I do believe it is far less problematic to overcome challenges with guidance and direction. Even more so when that guidance is refined through education, experience, and a standardized expectation of practice. I am capable of direct billing for ICBC and CVAP and can be accepted through other insurance agencies (i.e. Sunlife, BlueCross)
