Homewood Health Therapists in Victoria, BC
I work with kids, teens, and adults navigating many types of anxiety, stress, identity, body image, relationship with food, performance pressure, burnout, and trauma processing. This includes medical trauma, accident survivors, loved ones facing terminal illness, and neurodivergent or 2SLGBTQI+ clients seeking an affirming space. I offer a compassionate, non-judgmental space to slow things down, gently unpack what you are experiencing, and better understand yourself and your nervous system response. Alongside talk therapy, I use Brainspotting and somatic approaches to support regulation and trauma processing.

I am a Clinical Psychologist with over fifteen years of experience in improving mental health. I am well suited to work with clients who want to better understand themselves and the source of their life struggles. My process involves learning about the experiences, relationships and neurobiological factors that have given rise to the client's strengths and vulnerabilities. Although I utilize evidence-based techniques, I place an equal emphasis on the development of a strong and trusting therapeutic relationship that helps people confidently explore their inner experience and bring about positive and lasting change.

In Sanskrit, the human condition is known as "PurashArth" translated as the meaning of existence. That is we all want to be happy, we work towards being happy, and we seek eternal happiness. In my practice and personal lived experience, I have observed that we all have a desire to be 'seen', and 'heard', this is how we feel included. When these three are missing, we become stuck here and do not know how to step out into our true Self. I strongly believe that once we make that choice to seek our true Self, together the therapist and client evolve toward their goals. To find that peace and joy that is not in the far distance but here.

You know what you want. You keep doing the opposite. You've done the reading, noticed the pattern, and yet there you are again, pulling away when someone gets close, repeating the argument you swore you wouldn't have, returning to the habit you wanted to leave. That gap between knowing and doing is rarely a discipline problem. It usually means different parts of you want different things. I work with self-aware adults and couples who are tired of insight that doesn't translate. Together we slow things down, look at what these patterns are protecting, and build a different relationship with them.

My clients are often navigating a major life transition — a move to a new country, a career change, retirement, a loss, or a shift in an important relationship. Many are immigrants, newcomers, or people from minority cultures who are also renegotiating identity and belonging. These changes raise hard questions: who am I now, and where do I belong? I help clients slow down, make sense of the change, and reconnect with their strengths and direction, so they can move forward with clarity and confidence.

It is exhausting to live with a nagging sense that you just aren't quite "good enough." That hidden insecurity messes with everything. It turns simple chats with your partner into big fights. It makes you feel shy or worried about what others think, when you really just want to feel at ease.
It’s time to turn that around. I keep therapy warm, real, and lighthearted. We won’t just talk in circles; we’ll build actual skills to help you feel secure in your life and relationships. Imagine a relationship without the drama, or finally feeling comfortable in your own skin. Let’s get you there.

Many capable, self-aware adults struggle with anxiety that shows up most in relationships — overthinking, people-pleasing, fear of abandonment, or feeling “too much” and yet not enough. I specialize in attachment-focused therapy for those who want to understand why they react the way they do and how to feel more secure. Together we calm the nervous system, untangle old patterns, and build lasting emotional security so you can experience steadier, more connected relationships — including the one you have with yourself.

Feeling stuck? Something not working in your life? Relationships can be the most rewarding—and sometimes the most challenging—part of our lives. Are you dealing with loss, betrayal, anxiety, anger, feeling numb or navigating the complexities of modern dating? Has your relationship hit a roadblock, or come to an end? Are you feeling alone in a chronic condition or illness? I can help. As we're all shaped by both past experiences & current circumstances, I work with individuals & couples to reconnect with themselves & each other by addressing the deeper dynamics that can fuel disconnection- often unwittingly stealing hope & joy.
