Practice information:

It is my true pleasure and passion to connect with and guide individual adults and youth, couples, families and groups in working through challenges and towards growth. Our time spent together will be safe, confidential experiences where we work collaboratively, with compassion and curiosity, to meet your needs. My approach is very open and accepting. No matter what you are struggling with or how taboo you feel your concerns, you will find that I am an accepting and non-judgmental listener and support. I strive to create an environment where everyone feels comfortable sharing and exploring.

As a counsellor, I believe in the connection between our physical, mental, social and emotional aspects. In my work with individuals, I encourage considering all of these aspects of one’s well-being. Each of us is our own expert in knowing what is truly best for ourselves. My goal is to help my clients reach a place where they have clear and confident access to that sense of knowing, so that the counselling experience goes beyond the counselling room and the wisdom gained becomes a part of everyday living. This is often achieved by getting to know our genuine selves through honest and safe exploration of the beliefs that have been planted and have grown throughout our lives. Gaining increased awareness of our beliefs about ourselves, the world, and relationships offers us the opportunity to observe and transform those beliefs.

I feel very lucky to be able to enjoy an incredibly fulfilling career as a counsellor and founder of Peak Experience Counselling. For the last 15 years I have worked as an educator and counsellor, developing my skills in connecting and guiding others. I am an experienced couples and relationship counsellor and have many years of experience working with individual adults, youth and families.

Please reach out by phone or email and I will be happy to answer questions, share more and possibly move forward in working together. Online booking is also an option through our website. I look forward to chatting!

As we navigate the situation with COVID-19 together, we want to be communicative with our operating procedures. In adherence with the recommendation from the provincial medical health officer, Dr. Bonnie Henry and Worksafe BC, we have put in place procedures to ensure safe in person counselling. We are also continuing to offer secure video or phone sessions if you are unable or feel more comfortable with remote sessions. Our safety plan and procedures are posted on our website, in our offices and will be emailed out to you, with a screening questionnaire and consent, when you book an in person session.

E-counselling is proven to be effective and meaningful and an excellent alternative to in-person counselling. These services can also be booked online through our website.

Please book online or reach out by phone, text or email. I will be very happy to connect with you.

Payments are via e-transfer or tap debit or credit card payment at the time of in person sessions.

Should you have questions or concerns, please contact us. Supporting our clients is our priority. Thank you very much for your understanding as we all navigate this tricky time.
