Are you facing challenges like depression, anxiety, or struggles with addiction? I provide a safe, confidential space in person in Penticton or online, to explore your feelings and work toward healing. With compassion & understanding, I draw on my experience & expertise to help you navigate issues such as substance use, behavioral addictions (like sex, porn, or gambling), relationship difficulties & grief & loss. I believe in your capacity to heal & grow. My approach is grounded in a solution-focused & cognitive-behavioral methodology. We can develop a customized action plan that promotes progress & emotional freedom.
My passion is supporting you through life’s struggles, managing anxiety or depression, overcoming addiction, rebuilding relationships, or finding comfort after loss. I utilize a combination of healing-centered therapies tailored to your needs, helping you rediscover hope & resilience.
I am open-minded, non-judgmental, & respectful of all faiths, cultures, & sexual identities. Sessions are available in person in Penticton or online—both options provide an effective, supportive environment where you can feel at ease in your own space. Ready to begin your journey towards wellness? Call today to schedule free 30-minute consultation.

Although there are many types of therapy, I choose the style depending on you, the individual. Solution focus and CBT therapy along with my expertise in recovery is a good combination for my clients, providing life enhancing tools that can be used in written work or in every day thinking and process. This promotes autonomy and confidence to manage whatever struggles you may be challenged with.
