Available 7 days a week, including evenings. In-person sessions available Thursdays, Saturdays, and Sundays in Nanaimo, BC, and online. I specialize in ADHD, burnout and anxiety. Do you value a direct, no-BS therapist who uses evidence-based approaches, practical skill-building, and a touch of humor—while remaining warm and compassionate? I’m a relational, humanistic, person-centered counsellor who views people as whole, interconnected beings. I specialize in mood and anxiety concerns, boundaries, interpersonal issues, grief and loss, self-esteem, health challenges, and stress management.
I offer an authentic, compassionate and safe space to explore your therapeutic goals. I am trained in CBT, trauma-informed therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, a Diploma in Nutrition and more. I offer Yoga Therapy and am particularly interested in the connection between our bodies and minds. Please reach out with any questions about my specializations.
The greatest journey begins with a single step. Reaching out and asking for help is the best gift you can give yourself, and it begins here. Get curious about what brings you joy and what is holding you back, and explore these alongside me to achieve fulfillment and growth in your life, health and relationships.
