Hello and welcome. I offer support to adult individuals experiencing anxiety, depression, relationship issues and life transitions. I specialize in working with women. We can all use a little help when we find ourselves struggling through difficult phases and events in our life. Learning to move through changes with support and self awareness, identify patterns that keep us stuck ,can can offer us clarity and a feeling of self-empowerment. I offer a supportive, non-judgemental safe space to share your story, explore a life you desire and identify what's standing the in way.  

Have you ever felt that therapy does not have to be rigid, but should be real, relatable, and action-oriented. That is exactly how I approach my practice. With me, you will find a space where your voice matters, your struggles are understood, and your growth is prioritized. My approach is about exploring new insights, connecting, and doing in ways that feel genuine and impactful. Whether you are facing challenges or seeking guidance, I will walk alongside you, offering practical tools for real change. If you are ready for therapy that truly gets you and helps you thrive, let's connect. Please contact me for free 15 mins phone consultation to help us both determine if we are a good fit.  

*Accepting New Clients* Throughout my journey, I have always been curious about people and how they relate to one another. My approach as a therapist is centered in transparency, authenticity, and directiveness. My goal as a therapist is to create a supportive environment for clients to help gain fresh insights and to achieve growth and change in their lives. I work with individuals, couples, and youth aged 16+ and offer a free consultation to ensure I am the right fit for your journey.  

I provide therapy grounded in compassion, collaboration, and authenticity. My work focuses on supporting individuals navigating trauma, anxiety, and life transitions, creating a space where clients feel heard, understood, and empowered. I believe healing happens through connection, self-awareness, and developing tools that help you move toward greater balance, resilience, and confidence in your everyday life.  

I work collaboratively with individuals and couples navigating challenges such as communication difficulties, emotional intimacy concerns, infidelity, life transitions, stress, anxiety, and depression. At the heart of my practice is the development of strong, trusting therapeutic relationships where clients feel both safe and empowered. I believe this foundation is essential for engaging in the honest, meaningful conversations that lead to genuine and lasting change. My approach is active and goal-oriented, focused on creating meaningful progress while helping clients gain deeper insight, clarity, and a renewed sense of peace and direction. For over a decade, I have supported clients both in person and online across Southern Vancouver Island and throughout British Columbia.  

Accepting NEW Clients – Do you feel like you’re never good enough, like you have to be perfect, or that you have to prove yourself to others? Are you tired of looking back on the things you said or did in order to try to be accepted and liked? Do you wish you could focus on putting yourself first, and making your needs/wellbeing a priority? Do you struggle with confidence or self-esteem, or stress, anxiety, and low-mood? Together we can look at exploring the strengths, relationships, and experiences that have got you to this point, and move forward in a way that reconnects you with yourself and your goals.  

My own experience of life has informed my practice as has my appreciation of the spiritual aspects of life. Depth psychology has long been an interest of mine since first reading Carl Jung's work in 1990. My practice is deepened by an appreciation of Buddhism and more recently neuroscience which provide more expansive views on how to work with the difficulties faced by simply being human.  

I believe healing and growth happen at a pace that feels safe, and that sometimes having the right space to pause, process, and feel heard can make all the difference. You may be feeling anxious, emotionally drained, stuck in relationship patterns, grieving, navigating a life transition, or simply feeling unsure of yourself. Whatever brings you here, you do not have to carry it alone. My goal is to offer a warm, supportive, and non-judgmental space where we can gently make sense of what feels heavy and help you feel more grounded and connected to yourself. I draw from CBT, EFT, IFS, mindfulness, and tapping, based on what feels supportive for your unique needs.  

Driven by compassion and empathy, I am deeply committed to supporting individuals in healing from the impact of mental stress and distressing life experiences through achieving personal growth and enhancing their well-being as they navigate through emotional difficulties and life challenges. I hold the perspective that human suffering arises when we have difficulty reconciling the difference between our reality and our expectations, which leads to disconnection from ourselves in the form of anxiety, depression, and emotional dysregulation. I am here to walk alongside you on your path, whether you are navigating through stressful circumstances, dealing with the aftermath of a traumatic experience, or in need of compassion to feel heard or validated. I truly believe that each individual is the expert on their life and holds the potential to heal through their inner strength and wisdom to improve the quality of their life. With validation, compassion, and trust in the therapeutic relationship, I can help individuals heal from past trauma and support them in moving through emotional complexities. I provide a safe and comfortable environment for our sessions where we can connect and chat about your concerns.  

Life can feel overwhelming, confusing, or exhausting—especially when stress, anxiety, health concerns, or relationship challenges start to pile up. Psychotherapy offers a confidential, non-judgmental space to slow things down, understand what’s happening beneath the surface, and develop practical ways to cope. Working with a trained therapist can help you manage anxiety, chronic stress, emotional overwhelm, chronic illness (including cancer-related stress), relationship difficulties, and major life transitions. Therapy isn’t about “fixing” you—it’s about building insight, emotional regulation, and skills that support real change in your daily life. Whether you’re feeling stuck, burned out, emotionally reactive, or simply unsure how to move forward, therapy can help you gain clarity, strengthen resilience, and reconnect with a sense of balance and direction. Sessions are collaborative and paced to meet you where you are, with tools you can use beyond the therapy room. Reaching out for support isn’t a weakness—it’s a practical and intentional step toward better mental health and overall well-being. You don’t have to manage everything on your own. With the right support, it’s possible to feel more grounded, capable, and aligned with the life you want to live.  

Do you often feel anxiety crowding your thoughts? Or do you worry about “little things” and cannot understand why others dismiss your worries so easily? You are not alone. Together we can work on coping strategies to help manage your anxiety, stress, and general overwhelming feelings in daily life. I bring experience, education, and passion to my practice. With over a decade of professional experience counselling children, teens, and adults, I help support them through anxiety, stress, parenting, spiritual questions, and other life challenges.  

I’m excited to share a new offering within my practice that I’ve been thoughtfully developing: a series of small, in-person group therapy programs designed to provide a unique and supportive therapeutic experience. These sessions integrate psychotherapy and clinical hypnotherapy to support emotional well-being, personal growth, and stress reduction, allowing for both meaningful discussion and deeper work focused on calming the nervous system and activating the parasympathetic response. These small group programs are designed for children, teens, and parents, with a focus on building emotional resilience, confidence, and practical tools for navigating life’s challenges within a supportive and structured environment. The next 8-week group programs begin this spring. Registration opens April 7th, and spaces are intentionally limited to maintain a supportive group experience. Reaching out for support takes courage. I am passionate about guiding individuals through meaningful change and helping them reconnect with their innate capacity for healing and growth. My work integrates counselling, psychotherapy, cognitive behavioural therapy, and clinical hypnotherapy to support both the conscious and subconscious mind. This approach allows for deeper emotional processing, insight, and lasting transformation by addressing patterns at their root. Whether you are experiencing anxiety, stress, or a period of transition, I provide a grounded and supportive space to explore your experiences, develop greater self-understanding, and create meaningful, lasting change. Are you ready to begin experiencing your life in a new way?  

I approach counselling as a quiet, supportive partnership where clients feel safe to slow down, reflect, and reconnect with themselves. I believe meaningful change happens not through pressure or fixing, but through understanding, patience, and compassionate guidance. With more than two decades of experience, I support individuals facing emotional overwhelm, trauma-related stress, relationship challenges, and life transitions. My work is rooted in trauma-informed and culturally sensitive care, with attention to both emotional experiences and how stress is carried in the body. I aim to offer a calm and respectful space where clients feel valued, understood, and empowered to move forward with greater clarity, stability, and self-trust.  

Life can be really challenging at times and while we love our family and friends, they tend to give advice rather than practical tools for navigating those challenges. Sometimes they even get upset when we don't do what they tell us to! Therapy is different -- you get an unbiased listener who will teach those practical skills and offer realistic suggestions, rather than advice. Best of all, you will feel supported regardless of your decision. Whether you just want someone to bounce ideas off of, to finally start working on those unprocessed traumatic memories that we can't just "get over", or anything in between, I offer a safe place to work through your unique situation on your timeline. You will never feel pressured to talk about something that you aren't ready to, but you will feel supported enough to do so. I'm looking forward to meeting with you!  

As a Registered Psychologist, I offer compassionate and purposeful counselling for teens, young adults, and adults. I specialize in ADHD, anxiety, depression, relationships, parenting, men’s issues, and stress. My eclectic approach draws from CBT, mindfulness, acceptance therapy, and psycho-educational strategies to support your unique journey toward growth and well-being. I like to describe my sessions as purposeful conversations about what is important and relevant to my clients.  

I am here to guide you through any obstacles you may currently be facing. My goal is to help you understand yourself more deeply, to better cope with change...and quite possibly, to help you find the solution that bridges the gap between where you find yourself right now and where you wish to be.  

I know life does not always work out as planned. When these situations arise, you need an unbiased, nonjudgmental, trained professional to help you navigate life challenges. I offer a unique blend of therapy and coaching strategies at my practice. I integrate evidence-based holistic therapies and relationship coaching strategies into my sessions, mainly specializing in individuals and couples. This approach allows me to comprehensively address holistic health challenges, personal growth, and relationship dynamics. I facilitate coaching strategies by leveraging strengths-based approaches and motivational techniques to empower clients to achieve their desired outcomes. I simplify goal-setting, provide accountability, and offer practical strategies to navigate obstacles and maximize my clients' potential. Clients often commend my empathetic and collaborative approach, emphasizing the transformative impact of our work together. They appreciate the practical tools and insights gained, empowering them to navigate life's complexities with resilience and clarity. I encourage you to contact me if you need practical support to overcome challenges, enhance relationships, and achieve personal goals. Let's collaborate to create positive changes in your life. Together, we can embark on a healing, growth, and fulfillment journey. Contact me today to take the first step towards a brighter tomorrow.  

I offer warm, attuned, and inclusive online therapy for adults navigating anxiety, life transitions, relationship challenges, and the complexities of identity, family, and work.

I hold space for the full range of your experience—without judgment—and tailor our work to what feels most supportive and effective for you. Healing, to me, is not just personal—it’s also a step toward creating a more compassionate world.
