How Counselling Can Help:

  • Develop self awareness
  • Learn new coping skills
  • Process trauma
  • Practice self-compassion
  • Work through grief and loss
  • Relational challenges

You don't need to have the "right words" or be good at feelings to start - I'm used to working with people who'd rather avoid emotions altogether. Whether you're navigating past trauma, relationship struggles, people-pleasing, or just feeling stuck, I bring experience and down-to-earth support to help you figure it out at your pace. I'll meet you wherever you are.

Together, we'll gently explore what's going on. Whether it's tied to trauma, emotional disconnection, or mixed messages from upbringing, we'll work at your pace using trauma-informed approaches and practical tools.

I am passionate about helping people grow, heal, and embrace their authentic selves. With over 15+ years of experience working with youth, young adults, and families in the non-profit sector and government, I bring a deep understanding of the challenges people face in different stages of life.

In my private practice, I support adults in navigating life's challenges with compassion, skill, and a down-to-earth approach.

I acknowledge that I work and live on the traditional and unceded territory of the Stó:lō people, the Semá:th, Mathxwí, Leq'a: mel and Nooksack First Nation.

I continue to decolonize my own story—unpacking the messages I’ve absorbed, making room for truth, and complexivity of my roots, and growth.
