Practice information:
I am a registered social worker with British Columbia College of Social Work (BCCSW), a member of the British Columbia Association of Social Workers (BCASW), and a registered provider with the First Nations Health Authority (FNHA).
I have two master degrees in social work and couple and family therapy from McGill University with experience working with individuals, couples, families and groups in different settings.
Understanding my clients' specific needs, I use a blend of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Emotional Focus Therapy (EFT), Active Listening, Attachment Based and Existential-Humanistic approach.
No matter where you may be at in life now, I'll walk you into your history and together we can better understand how you ended up here as an individual, a partner or a member of a family. I hold a safe and non-judgmental space for my clients from different cultures, ages and genders, to express themselves freely and in total confidentiality.
Feel free to reach out for a free consultation to find out if I could be the right therapist for you.
