Practice information:

I can help you achieve:

• Relief from negative thinking, anxiety and depression.
• Better coping mechanisms to help you overcome addictive or destructive behaviours.
• Balance in your day-to-day life.

I aim to understand each person, help them work through their issues and enable them to find ways  to achieve change and resolution of their current situation.

I have a Master’s degree in Social Work from the University of British Columbia and an additional degree in Conflict Resolution from the University of Winnipeg. I have also been an instructor in a counselling skills program teaching aspiring counselors how to be better counsellors. I have supervised and mentored graduate-level students and am trained in coaching, mediation and motivational interviewing. I am based in Vancouver, British Columbia with eighteen years of experience working with people with a variety of challenges.  I have worked for years both with people with disabilities and have run support groups for their caregivers. I have run various other support and psycho-education groups teaching coping skills to people in need. From chronic illnesses to gender identity issues and addictions, I have worked with clients in all different stages in their lives.

I work from an eclectic mix of Solution-Focused Therapy, Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, Strengths Perspective, Motivational Interviewing and Mindfulness. I tailor my sessions and techniques to each individual client and work collaboratively to find a style that suits you. If you need help with stress, burnout, trouble sleeping, depression, anxiety or just generally need support please reach out. I offer a free 10 minute consultation to see if you think we could be a good fit. I am here for you.
