Is anxiety taking over? I can teach you to take back control of your life once and for all. We'll work collaboratively to bring you to a place of healing and deep connection with Self, relationships, and life itself. Through tapping into your inner strength and using evidenced based, and trauma informed approaches, you will learn the necessary tools to move past life's challenges to live a more easeful and fulfilling life. Victoria's warm climate allows us to move counselling outdoors to benefit from nature's healing properties! In office sessions are available downtown. Prefer virtual? Online sessions are convenient and effective.
As a counsellor/psychotherapist, art therapist and nature-based therapist, I have excessive training and experience working with folks experiencing anxiety. I have trained in Somatic psychotherapy, Inner-child work, Energy Therapy, Attachment, Neurodiversity, Mindfulness-Based Cognitive Therapy, IFS, CBT, relational practices and Active Listening.
Please reach out if you are ready to embark on a healing journey that taps into your inner strengths, while learning concrete tools to deal with the daily struggles of being human. I will be there with you every step of the way, without judgement of anything you bring. I welcome you to reach out for a free 30 minute consult.

I teach my clients the tools necessary to heal anxiety, and gain control over their lives again. We work with challenging physical sensations, that anxiety and depression can bring, negative self talk and over thinking. Next, we connect to the Self and nature through energetic work and connection to the many parts of self. Most clients feel more ease after a couple of sessions.
