A little bit about me
I have been working in the helping field for non-profit organizations since 1995. My career has allowed me to support children, youth, LGBTQ, men, women, families, and those who have experienced violence. I have lived and worked in both urban and remote communities throughout BC. These experiences have given me the opportunity to hold positions where I supervised and supported other clinicians. I have learned that the therapeutic journey is humbling and unique, to each and every one of us.
Since leaving the world of non-profits to open a private practice, I have grown even more as a counsellor. Neurobiology, cognitive process, and somatic processing support my trauma-informed lens, allowing me to help clients better understand the impact their past experiences have had in creating their current behaviours, symptoms, or struggles, and how one relates to their world and to themselves. I specialize in supporting individuals and their loved ones who struggle with grief and loss, general distress, anger, anxiety, PTSD, depression, low self-confidence, addictions, and relationship dysfunction.
