Therapists in V3Y
Have you been feeling lately like life shouldn’t be so hard?

Are you walking on eggshells in your relationships because you don’t know how to address the big underlying issues? Do you feel overwhelmed – even physically – in the face of your daily tasks and stressors? You are not alone. And I can help.

You may have grown up feeling unsafe, unseen, or responsible for other people’s emotions. As an adult, this can show up as a harsh inner voice, chronic anxiety, emotional overwhelm, people-pleasing, or feeling disconnected from yourself and others. You might feel exhausted from holding it together and wonder why things that seem easy for others feel so hard for you. These are common responses to trauma and abuse, not personal failures. Therapy can help reduce shame, increase emotional regulation, and support you in feeling more grounded, present, and connected.

Hi ! I’m Mariah (she/her). I offer in person sessions in Pitt Meadows, as well as virtual or phone sessions. I'm a mother, dog lover, gardener, first responder spouse, and doughnut connoisseur. The foundation of my therapeutic approach is relational. This means I prioritize the relationship between us, as I believe it sets the foundation for our work. I draw from somatic and emotion focused practices. Meaning we will notice emerging emotions, and how you experience them in your physical body. I also bring gentleness, moments of shared humor (I am really good at making myself laugh), and a spirit of collaboration.

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.

Are you finding yourself stuck in the same old patterns, no matter how hard you try to change?

With the right support, you can break these cycles, nurture more fulfilling relationships, and reconnect with what brings you purpose.
