Hello! I am an experienced Registered Clinical Counsellor based in Vancouver’s Lower Mainland, with sessions available in nature along the Pacific Spirit Trails, and online across Canada (unregulated provinces & territories) and internationally. I work with youth and adults seeking to manage their mental wellness including stress, anxiety, depression, and life transitions. I see each client as unique and offer a holistic, trauma informed and culturally sensitive approach. I'm here to meet you where you on your life's path.
My key focus is to establish a therapeutic alliance rooted in trust, respect, acceptance and understanding. From this foundation, I help clients manage current challenges. I draw from a range of approaches tailoring each session to meet individual needs. Above all, I see therapy as a collaborative process where clients feel supported, empowered, and heard.
I know reaching out can feel like a big step, and I truly honour the courage it takes. My goal is to offer a warm, supportive space where you can feel safe, heard, and understood. Together, we'll work toward building a steadier sense of self-worth and inner strength, so you can move through life's challenges with greater ease and confidence.
