For me, therapy is about connecting with my clients in a way that is meaningful and healing. I believe in the importance of providing a space where your experience is seen and heard—your struggles and your triumphs witnessed and acknowledged. As your counsellor I will be present, patient, curious, and compassionate. I am guided by an interest in existential therapy, which affirms that each person has an inherent capacity to choose how they live. I hope that you and I can work together, with support and collaboration, to help you make the most of the challenges and opportunities in your life.

I believe in being fully present to each of my clients and accepting you non-judgmentally with the concerns you bring. I embrace a collaborative approach: we work together to define what therapy will look like and the direction that your journey will take. I will invite you to fully access your emotions and experience, and to integrate them into meaningful decisions.

​

Above all, I believe that each client’s personal experiences, values, and beliefs are of utmost importance and are to be honoured throughout the process. This work is so rewarding to me—seeing the essence of the person sitting across from me and helping you realize your true self in the world.

When working with couples, my goal is for each of you to have a good relationship with yourself and to authentically connect with your partner. Concretely, this work can involve practicing the skills of dialogue that create deeper understanding and connection for the couple. It can also involve exploring the intense feelings and reactions, values, personal differences, and wounds from the past that influence current dynamics in the relationship. I find it so fulfilling to support couples in healing and deepening their relationship.

Let me begin by welcoming you and sharing a few words about myself. As a person and therapist I strive to understand the intentions or motivations that move us in life. This is the value of psychotherapy, a process that helps to facilitate seeking clarity and understanding of the issues that may hurt or hold us back. I practice from an existential lens, which means that I consider what it is to be human in this life we live.

I have been a Registered Clinical Counsellor with the BC Clinical Counselling Association (BCACC) since I graduated in 2016 from Adler University, Vancouver with a Masters in Counselling Psychology.

As a therapist, I am person-centered, which says I attempt to encounter the phenomenon of each individual and believe strongly in fostering a safe relationship. I encourage support with an integrative approach, which may include techniques and tools from many different modalities of therapy. Through collaboration we may use assessment to lend the process that which may bring help to any current symptoms and struggles.
