Therapists in Vernon, BC

Significant life events and transitions can throw anyone off their "best self." Our work together will help you regain a sense of balance and focus, identity, and belonging. I believe individuals are experts on themselves, and I walk beside my clients offering insight and resources that help them move toward the life they want to live. "True belonging doesn’t require you to change who you are; it requires you to be who you are.”-Brene Brown

Imagine feeling it in your bones that change is possible. How you relate to yourself, others, and life - can change. I want to work with people who are courageous and fearful and unsure. When we have limiting stories of ourselves it can be helpful to have someone else, a professional, hear us - see us- and want to show another way. I will not look away from your shadow, and I do not fear trauma or big emotions. You are so much more than what you've done, your body, and your worst thoughts.

I specialize in relationship counselling and individual counselling. Have you noticed that worrying is negatively impacting your life or your relationships?

Are you and your partner no longer feeling connected and supported by each other? Do you look at your partner and wonder where the person you committed to went? Do you feel like your partner is a stranger, and experience loneliness? Are you looking for a change? I can help.

My therapeutic approach is client centred and science based with complex psycho-education that I translate to be easily understood.

We all experience times when our usual coping strategies are no longer enough and we are in distress. Our relationships suffer, our work suffers and our families suffer.
