Practice information:

If one thing is true about life, it will throw us unexpected curve balls. Throughout my career, I have developed an expertise in counselling people going through distressing or unexpected life changes, or experiencing conflict in their relationships. I also assist people who have noticed a negative pattern repeating itself in their relationships, life choices, or their thinking, and desire a permanent change away from those patterns. 

I will assist you to make sense of your problem, manage your emotions, and discover any underlying barriers working against your success. Together we can resolve them, so you can move forward with a new perspective and plan. 

If you are struggling with any of the following, I can assist you:

• grief or loss
• relationship strain or change
• workplace conflict
• communication struggles
• bullying
• stress management
• new health diagnosis
• exhaustion or burnout
• sleep problems
• or whatever keeps you awake at night

I work attentively and with compassion when people find themselves in challenging or distressful situations. I believe we have the ability to adapt to change, heal from difficult experiences, and move forward from a position of strength, in our own time and in our own way. You will be in the driver's seat, and set the goals for what you want to achieve in our counselling work together.  

I have over twenty five years of experience as a Counsellor and Social Worker, in Private Practice and Healthcare settings. I am registered with the BC College of Social Workers and the BC Association of Social Workers.

We all go through times of change, or challenging life transitions, and most of us need some help along the way. If something is interfering with your ability to function, or is creating turmoil for you, contact me, and let's get started restoring calm in your life again.
