At times in your life, you can be impacted by mental anguish, internal hurt and difficult challenges. These provocations can leave you feeling weak, overwhelmed and stuck as if there are no answers or solutions to how you feel. This can lead you to experiencing feelings of anxiety, depression, loss of hope overflowing into our relationships causing excess strain. You can lose sight of dreams, motivation to do well and happiness. At times when it all just seems too much and you cannot see the path ahead you require someone to help you stand for your first step to healing. This is when having a safe, non-judgmental, supportive, and caring counselor who listens and is fully present can help. I believe we all have the power within to reconnect with ourselves with a little consolidation and fortitude.
I believe you can overcome trauma. I believe opportunity for growth is hidden in our confusion, shock and stress. Although you may feel stuck at this moment in time, I believe you can take control and elevate your being. I aspire to help people lead a healthy, well-balanced life.
I embrace working with individuals and couples. There are times in our lives when our relationships seem impossible to figure out. As a couples counselor, I will work with you by exploring areas of conflict within the relationship and within yourselves. You will learn new ways to communicate and rediscover each other. Together, we will use connection strategies to help both of you recognize the contributing factors affecting your relationship to move in a forward direction to a happier, safer, balanced relationship.
My intention is to compassionately guide you on this transformative journey. Drawing from a collaborative, trauma-informed, strength-focused, and person-centered approach, we’ll work together to navigate challenges and foster healing.
As an individual, You and I will work together to find the best path for you to grow. You will learn how to face challenges, move past traumas and develop your true self to enhance your life. We will use a variety of ways to help you reach your goals and move forward.
I provide online therapy which many people find convenient for their busy lives. Being able to build trust, openness and a working relationship from the comfort of your home, favourite spot, or work is one advantage to online therapy. My hope is that by growing a relationship together we will create change for you so you can grow strength and resilience.
If what I have said resonates with you, I encourage and invite you to a complimentary 15-minute conversation to help you decide if I am the right counsellor for you. If you choose to work with me, you can expect a comfortable, open and relaxed conversation about the struggles you are facing. We will talk about your experiences, your goals and discover where we will start on your journey. I look forward to you thriving as opposed to simply surviving.
I am a Canadian Certified Counsellor (C.C.C) with a Masters in Counseling Psychology. I am a member of the Canadian Counseling and Psychotherapy Association and a registered Clinical Counselor (R.C.C) with British Columbia Association of Clinical Counselors (BCACC) and have 15 years of policing experience.

The most important thing to remember about me is just like many of you, I have gone through my share of pain and struggle. I have dealt with loss, relationship challenges, dramatic life changes, anxiety and even depression. It wasn’t until I sat opposite of my own counsellor that I realized the power of seeking support and being seen and feeling heard. I am a daughter, a sister, a granddaughter, a student, a friend, a business owner, a colleague, a patient, and a learner. With many of these titles comes great responsibility and great challenges. We all have challenges, and we all have pain and although these experiences can help us grow and appreciate our courage, in order to heal, we require the support and comfort of others.
The most significant of reasons why I picked this profession was because of my desire to create meaningful connections with people around me. From a young age, I recognized that connection and mental and physical wellness were values very close to me. This profession not only allows me to create deep and real connections with my clients but allows both myself and my clients to keep ourselves accountable in creating healthier habits
Outside of my profession, I am a lover of the outdoors. There is nothing I love more than spending meaningful time with my family and friends. You can often find me at the gym, out for a walk with a loved one, shopping on the weekends and trying new restaurants around town. Over the next year, I am looking forward to travelling again and making up for lost time during the pandemic.
