Allow me to introduce myself and my approach to counselling.

As a practitioner, I recognize that everyone’s situation is unique. I believe healing and growth comes from awareness, which can be achieved collaboratively in a safe, non-judgmental environment. I chose a career in counselling because I love listening to people’s life stories, brainstorming new perspectives and exploring paths to healing.

I work with children and adults, and seniors, and have experience counselling First Nations individuals. My counselling approach addresses a variety of circumstances, with a particular emphasis on alleviating anxiety and depression.

My practice applies Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), and includes Mindfulness, Solution-Focused Brief Therapy (SFBT), and Narrative Therapy. With these techniques, we will explore thoughts, emotions, behaviours, and patterns, and identify obstacles to improvement, with the aim of establishing goals to meet your counselling objectives.

In addition to counselling, I also provide LENS direct neurofeedback treatment. LENS helps open pathways, releasing stuck patterns, enhancing brain function and promoting self-regulation. Results seen are greater relaxation, improved emotional well-being and resilience, and brain optimization.

I have a master’s degree in counselling psychology and am a Registered Clinical Counsellor (RCC) with the British Columbia Association of Clinical Counselors (BCACC). I reside with my family on Vancouver’s beautiful North Shore and am the proud mother of two boys.
