Therapists in British Columbia

I am currently on maternity leave. If you would like to be added to my contact list please send an email. I offer an approach to counselling based on authenticity, genuine care and respect. I work with my clients collaboratively and non-judgmentally, using an eclectic approach built on person/child-centred therapy and attachment therapy. I offer short term and in depth counselling to address issues that make people/parents/children/youth feel stuck, ashamed, confused, guilty, depressed, worried, afraid or just curious and that might be preventing them from reaching a sense of fulfillment, self efficacy & control in their lives.

I can share with you that even before my training as a social worker, I knew working with children, young people, and families of all designs, brought me joy. Whether this joy came from my early days as a camp counsellor, as a recreation support worker, or from my paid social work employment in supporting families, or working with young people struggling with substance use, or in supporting young people in their challenges with autism, my practice focus has always been in working alongside others to feel less alone, to feel heard, to feel seen.

My individualized process is guided by your needs, wants, beliefs, and values. I use many approaches to support you: active listening, empathy, targeted psychological and social interventions, thought exercises, and goal setting. I help you understand how changing can improve your quality of life and how to take those difficult steps towards self-improvement. Our relationship will be based on mutual respect, empathy, professionalism, respect for diversity, and a focus on your rights to confidentiality and autonomy. I help with couples counselling, child, youth & family issues, anxiety, depression, OCD, and men's issues.
