Adults Therapists in Victoria, BC
Life can be overwhelming, painful and isolating. These struggles may show up as constant anxiety, panic, chronic fatigue, loneliness, fearing the worst, dreading the days ahead, being critical of yourself, never feeling good enough and obsessive thinking. Often I support individuals experiencing repetitive issues and unhelpful patterns. These may show up in their relationship with themselves and others, at work, school or in their parenting. If you are a parent struggling to support your child, or If you are feeling stuck, limited, or are suffering alone - you could likely benefit from support. You don't have to do it alone!

My areas of passion are working with 2SLGBTQIA clients, alternative sexual/romantic relationship identities & dynamics (ex. ethically non-monogamy, polyamory, kink, swinging, BDSM, open relationships, sex work, etc.), sex & intimacy, consent & boundaries, religious trauma, chronic pain/illness, neurodiversity, and life transitions. I draw from both education and lived experience to provide deeper insight into supporting you from an open-minded, trauma-informed, sex-positive, and affirming framework. The journey of healing and growth can be messy, challenging, and heart-breaking while also beautifully majestic and worth every effort.

I work with individuals struggling with low self esteem, anxiety and self-doubt due to a traumatic or abusive past. If you are a deeply self-aware person but still feel like your trauma symptoms are unresolved; if you experience a deep fear of failure and overwhelm; if you feel like you’re a burden to others and doubt your worth; or if you're a survivor of emotional or narcissistic abuse — please know that this is a soft place to land. My work focuses on building self-empowerment, implementing clearer boundaries, exploring the mindfulness and cultivating a sense of inner peace.

I approach therapy as a creative and collaborative process that involves the whole being of both the therapist and client. In order to lead fulfilling, joyful lives, humans need access to the intelligence available through their physical, psychological, emotional, intellectual, and spiritual selves. Trauma, shame, and fear can disrupt our ability to access and experience these aspects of self fully, and can leave us feeling dissatisfied with our lives. By working directly with clients' felt sense of their bodies, as well as their stories and their feelings, I support clients in deepening their relationship to all aspects of themselves.

Is your relationship going through a difficult season, where you dread that another discussion will end in an argument, without apology? Are you facing a major transition and could use someone to help bring clarity? Do you feel stuck in some way – as though life or your relationships just aren’t what you’re hoping for? Do you feel alone as you find yourself struggling to manage difficult emotions like anxiety, sadness, guilt, shame, or anger? Maybe you’ve always felt different from those around you - it can be exhausting and lonely. As a person with disabilities myself, I have my own experience of the challenges of trying to fit in.

I specialize in supporting clients through periods of transition & transformation, and I am passionate about working with clients to create the change they seek. This might include processing difficult experiences, increasing self-understanding & self-compassion, exploring values & identity, learning coping strategies, or increasing capacity for intimacy in relationship. Additionally, as a mother and registered midwife (currently non-practicing), I draw on many years of personal and professional experience to offer support to clients who may be struggling with challenges related to the perinatal period.

The benefits of my approach lie in using different techniques, tailored to the client's unique personality. Some clients like a directive approach, they want to be guided, to be given an almost 'engineering' model explaining our inner life; some prefer a non-directive, client-centered approach, where they would explore their inner landscape with the therapist as a co-traveler. All clients have relational needs which need to be addressed to, and the therapeutic relationship provides safety, validation, 'repaired' parenting, mutuality, client's self-definition and empowerment. Helping clients practice autonomy is my passion!
