My website

I support youth, adults, seniors/Elders and couples who are navigating challenges, including anxiety, depression, stress, grief and loss, burnout, life transitions, and trauma-related concerns. You may be feeling overwhelmed, stuck, disconnected, or unsure how to move forward. Counselling offers a warm, supportive space to feel heard, gain insights, and begin building a path toward increased balance and well-being. As a practicum student completing my Master of Arts in Counselling Psychology through Yorkville University, I offer counselling as a pre-licensed student counsellor at Living Bridges Therapy Collective in Kamloops, BC.

I draw from Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), DBT-informed skills, Emotion-Focused Therapy, mindfulness, somatic awareness, Internal Family Systems (IFS), and trauma-informed approaches to support clients in ways that are collaborative, compassionate, and tailored to their individual needs. I welcome spirituality, culture, and unique identities with care.

Reaching out for support can feel vulnerable, and taking that first step is often the hardest part. You do not have to navigate things alone. I aim to offer a welcoming, compassionate space where you can feel supported, understood, and encouraged as you move toward healing and positive change.
