Therapists in V3C
Hi! First, I recognize how challenging starting the process of counselling may be. I aim to provide a safe and supportive space to work through whatever difficulties bring you here. I specialize in relationships (of all kinds), addictions, feelings of being stuck or overwhelmed, life's transitions, sex & intimacy and grief and loss. In addition to a Master's in Counselling Psychology, I have over 15 years of teaching yoga, meditation and mindfulness. My approach is collaborative and client-focused, and I work with individuals of all genders, sexualities and intersectionalities.

I believe people come to therapy because something in their life no longer feels sustainable. You might be feeling overwhelmed, stuck, disconnected, or carrying things you have had to hold on your own for far too long. Whatever brings you here, you do not have to have it all figured out before we begin.
As a first generation Filipino person, I bring warmth, compassion, and a deep respect for the human experience into this work. I understand how culture, family, identity, and unspoken expectations can shape the way we move through the world. It can be difficult to make space for yourself while holding all of that.

What would it take to live the life you imagined? Have you truly found your authentic self? Visit me at Aster Wellness Centre and we will explore these questions to consider your current path. We often have our sights set high but lose track of what is truly important due to unexpected obstacles such as immense anxiety, anger, depression, fear, grief, and personal traumas. We don't ask for these things, but they are occasionally placed along our path, and can easily trip us up. The feeling that we are stuck or unable to realize our potential sets in.

It is possible to hold space for both the light and the darkness in life without feeling consumed. My goal is to create a safe and warm space for you to explore, unpack, and navigate your concerns. You are the expert in your lived experience and I hold important teachings from my education. I also understand that there are oppressive systems that impact our daily lives. I can help to unpack these systems and help empower you to find your potential and truth.

You may find yourself giving so much to others while quietly running on empty. Over time, stress, conflict, and daily pressures can leave you feeling exhausted and disconnected. I offer a calm, restorative space to process what you are carrying and explore strategies that support relief, clarity, and steadiness. As the founder of Golden Hour Counselling, and as a Registered Clinical Counsellor (RCC) and Canadian Certified Counsellor (CCC), I support individuals navigating ADHD, addiction, anxiety, trauma, stress, anger, grief & loss, depression, relationship issues, life transitions, low self-worth, burnout, and parenting struggles.

You keep it together on the outside, but inside, anxiety, depression, or the weight of past trauma are quietly taking a toll. Maybe you’re juggling a career, relationships, and family expectations, yet still feel like you’re falling short. Do you find yourself stuck in self-doubt or intense emotions?
Whether you're healing from PTSD, or simply feeling overwhelmed, you deserve support that sees the full picture. In our work together, we’ll explore the roots of emotional pain: family patterns, cultural messages, or unspoken expectations, and build practical tools to support self-compassion, communication, and emotional regulation.

My passion for counselling came from both personal and professional experience in asking for support and supporting others. I believe connection to others, along with a safe non-judgemental space to be heard can allow us to begin the journey in growth, healing and self exploration. I believe all our emotions, behaviours, and thoughts serve a purpose – even those we perceive as negative- and that by understanding that purpose, we can better understand ourselves and our relationships.

You look like you’re holding it together, but inside you’re exhausted. Maybe you’re feeling disconnected in your relationships, overwhelmed by the mental load of parenting, always saying "yes" when internally you're screaming "no", questioning yourself constantly, or trying to survive separation, coparenting, or the challenges of blended family life. You may feel stuck between who everyone needs you to be and who you actually are. I help individual and couples slow down, untangle the overwhelm, understand the deeper patterns beneath their struggles, and reconnect with themselves and each other in a more authentic, compassionate way.

I believe that life is for living and that despite the challenges and stressors, we all need, want and deserve to be happy, lead fulfilling and productive lives and have loving relationships. Working from the premise that the therapeutic relationship between a counsellor and a client is a collaborative one, with trust, empathy & non-judgement at the forefront, I see my role as a facilitator to help you reach your desired goals and realize your full potential.
