Hello! I am Sarah and I live and work on the homelands of the Hul’qumi’num People. I am a trauma therapist and primarily use Internal Family Systems (IFS) therapy and EMDR to work with individuals on their path to a healthy and integrated life. After working in physical and mental health professions for more than 15 years, I shifted to private practice mental health counselling as a means of helping clients enhance their resilience and coping skills. I aim to ensure a non-judgemental environment and welcome all clients, offering a safe place to tell your story. You are not alone.
I specialize in crisis and trauma therapy. If there are difficult events from your childhood that still affect you or if you are experiencing a current crisis, you've come to the right place. We will find the way through together. I have also spent several years living internationally and often work with families as they transition between cultures.
I would love to work with you in reaching your goals. I offer a complimentary 15 minute phone consultation so that you can ask any questions you might have and get an idea of my approach to therapy. Please visit my website or contact me to book your initial consultation. I look forward to talking with you.
