Navigating the twists and turns of life sometimes feels difficult and overwhelming. In those moments, I believe there is comfort in enlisting a counsellor to support you through life’s more challenging phases. I am a relationally centered counsellor who will meet you with warmth, understanding, and compassion. I draw from the theories of person-centered and emotion focused therapy, as well as focusing. With a trauma informed approach, I hope to support you in developing a stronger relationship with yourself. My RCC credentials are currently pending.
I finished my M.Ed in Counselling Psychology from UBC. Prior to this, I worked as an elementary school teacher for ten years. I appreciated the social emotional component, which drew me to counselling. Getting to know the whole person was an integral part of my work as a teacher, and this holistic approach will be an integral part of my work as a counsellor.
I would welcome the opportunity to explore if we would be a good fit on your journey to continued growth and wellness. I work with adults & adolescents and can support you in the following areas: anxiety, depression, stress, life transitions, relationship issues, trauma, grief, loss, personal development & growth, and academic/school related issues.
