Burnaby, BC V5C
I work from a Jungian, depth psychological orientation, which is a holistic modality that involves consideration of not only what happens on the surface of our lives, but also explores unconscious processes that deeply influence us in less discernible, yet highly influential ways.
Your yearning for joy, creative expression, and contentment may be your psyche/ soul’s way of telling you that it’s time to cultivate inner connections. If you need support in quieting the external chatter, to tune into your inner wisdom, I'm here to hold space for you. Expressing yourself and authentically relating to others can be challenging if you are struggling with overwhelming or numbed emotions. I offer counselling and EMDR therapy for those with trauma (religious, childhood or otherwise), support for creative people, and those feeling depressed, anxious, or who wish to deepen their connection to purpose and meaning.

I have been in private counselling practice for 15 years, and in wellness, personal development and the media for 25 years. My practice draws self-referring, high-functioning adults/couples with addiction, phobia, anxiety, depression and attachment disorders affecting their lives beyond their historical, current or perceived ability of self-control. In couples, I usually begin individually to create safety and self-awareness, then back together towards clear self-advocacy, expression and to build trustful communication. EMDR in the couple context can clear a lot of old trauma and wounded pattern-associations that mire us in destructive relational dynamics.

I am an Integrative Somatic Therapy Practice (ISTP) therapist. Trauma can present in the body in a variety of ways; witnessing a violent or horrific event(s), car accidents, surgeries, a serious sports injury(ies), being a soldier or civilian in war, being a first responder, being trafficked, as well as survivors of physical, emotional and sexual abuse. This therapy addresses trauma that shows up in the body, causing ailments that appear to have no medical rationale.

Jungian Counsellors
How does Jungian therapy work?
Jungian therapy, also called analytical psychology, focuses on a patient’s inner experiences and unconscious mind. Exploring a person’s unconscious mind can be achieved through several means, including the analysis of memories and dreams, and through physical exercises, such as art, dance, and word association.
How long does Jungian therapy last?
Jungian therapy is an intensive treatment type. Because its goal is to understand a person as a whole, including the unconscious aspects of them, treatment can range from months to years. Since patients learn the theory behind Jungian therapy during treatment, they can also practice its tenets throughout life after therapy sessions have completed.
Is Jungian therapy effective?
According to studies, many patients find success with Jungian therapy, and the century-old treatment has a devoted following. Researchers note that the therapy is particularly useful in improving relationships, self-esteem, anxiety, and depression. Improvements in problem areas seem to continue even after the end of Jungian therapy, as people are able to continue working on themselves using the tools they’ve learned during the treatment.
Is Jungian therapy evidence-based?
Jungian therapy is theory-based, derived from the theories of Carl Jung, a Swiss psychiatrist often called one of the fathers of psychology, along with Sigmund Freud. Jung developed his theories from observing the problems of patients, and developed many theories of how the mind works. Subsequent psychological research has determined that Jungian therapy can lead to significant improvement in most patients.
