I believe in the power of collaboration, safety, and connection with clients. Honoured to assist clients in finding and navigating their own unique paths, I strive to help them discover, access, and express their own internal strengths, and use this heightened awareness to guide them towards healing and growth.

Does your child feel overwhelmed by big emotions? Is your teen having a hard time expressing themselves or finding their place among peers? I'm passionate about helping children, youth and young adults who are feeling anxious, navigating life transitions, seeking support with self-esteem or working to develop social skills.

I am a somatic-attachment therapist supporting older youth & adults healing from symptoms of anxiety and depression, the stressors of daily living, processing incidental and relational trauma, and navigating life transitions. The people who seek me out are often yearning to live authentically and to feel at peace. They may be in search of their identity or life purpose. Some may be uncovering limiting relational patterns and want to break the cycles that no longer serve them in order to live more fulfilling lives.

Perhaps you're down or anxious - maybe you're unsure about the future, a relationship, or just feel that you aren't living the life you were meant to lead. It takes great courage to reach out and make a change. Although change can be difficult most people realize that it is often more difficult to try and stay the same. People come to therapy for many reasons but often the heart of the matter is that they want to live their "one wild and precious life" Mary Oliver Whatever your needs may be, I am here to offer support. Therapy is a process of growth and self-discovery, and in my sessions I work gently and compassionately with you.

I have been working as a registered psychologist since 2008. It's important to me to create a safe, caring respectful environment where anyone, no matter who they are, feels welcome. The relationship between us is one of the most important factors in determining how helpful counselling with me will be. Clients often come to me with anxiety, depression, traumatic experiences, difficulties with life transitions, and grief or loss. We will work together to develop a plan to deal effectively with the issues that bring you to see me. (Can also contact by Fax: 250.984.0859)

Hi, I’m Angela. Most people describe my space as warm and grounded. Many I work with say life was “pretty good” growing up, yet find themselves muting their own needs to stay connected to others. If you struggle to voice what you truly feel or find your relationships lack deep intimacy, I’m here to help. Whether navigating daily communication with more confidence or authenticity, my goal is to support you in exploring your inner world, feeling at home in your body, and discovering your authentic voice.

I work with individuals who have been through overwhelming and traumatic events - who are struggling with anxiety, panic or depression, where symptoms and triggers feel uncontrollable and unstoppable and those who feel like their past continues to resurface. By supporting your nervous system and working from a somatic approach, together we will process traumatic memories in a safe and controlled way so they are no longer needing to keep you in an activated state.

You may be facing anxiety, depression, trauma, grief, burnout, or navigating life transitions.

When we work together it will be about supporting you in moving out of ways of being that no longer serve you in a helpful way and into a more connected, aware and preferred place. Collaboratively working to understand and shift the impacts that traumatic events have had on your life and building on your energy levels so that you can feel a deeper sense of ease, belonging and happiness. Be it parenting support, family therapy or individual youth and or adult sessions, together we can create a space that upholds your dignity and highlights your intrinsic strengths as we navigate changes together towards a more preferred sense of you.

As a Registered Art Therapist, I support those who are seeking a gentler, less traditional approach to healing. Maybe talking feels too much—or not quite enough. Through marks, movement, and creative exploration, we can come alongside what you’re carrying and find new ways to release, reframe, and transform. Together, we move with curiosity and compassion, creating space for healing to unfold naturally.

Living in today's world is hard and complex. Psychotherapies have also evolved a lot in the past 10 years, and the timing is ripe to heal intergenerational trauma. My approach seeks to meet people where they are at and provide a deep understanding from which change can happen. I've been a therapist for 15 years and retrained in trauma therapies such as EMDR and Deep Brain Reorienting (DBR) halfway through my career. I have a lot of trust in people's ability to heal and change, having witnessed these profound journeys many times.

I help my patients live the life they desire. This may take the shape of processing deep core experiences, tuning into your body and building self-awareness. Patterns that were once protective and important may no longer be serving you. I can help with relationships, life transitions or employment. Similarly, you may be seeking support for anxiety, depression or a crisis in your life. I aim to provide a culturally safe environment that is inclusive and trauma informed.

You're working hard, providing, and holding it all together—but you're running on fumes and nobody seems to notice. Most men are taught that "sucking it up" is the only option. But carrying that load alone leads to the same few places: feeling burned out, snapping at the people you love, or feeling totally disconnected from the life around you. You feel stuck in a cycle of blame and attack, carrying a weight you weren't meant to carry by yourself. You don't need a lecture; you need a way to get your life back on track and feel like yourself again.

I'm currently accepting new clients again.
We are bound to face challenges that can leave us feeling overwhelmed, uneasy, or lost. Or sometimes, different feelings, thoughts, experiences, and behaviours present themselves without knowing how to fully understand them. I can offer ways to build one's awareness to uncover and gain more control over problematic concerns/patterns. I have a special interest working with men, who are challenged by ADHD, anxiety, depression and/or burnout. I'm in the process of completing my certification as a ADHD-Certified Clinical Services Provider.
