Individual counselling offers a confidential and supportive environment where clients can delve into thoughts, emotions, and experiences, with the aim to enhance their self-awareness and develop effective coping mechanisms. Individual therapy can increase positive feelings, such as compassion and self-esteem. In therapy, individuals facing personal, work-related, or life challenges, can learn new skills for handling difficult situations, making healthy decisions, or reaching goals. Whether you need a sounding board to bounce ideas off of, a neutral perspective on a dilemma, or someone to help you clarify your thoughts and feelings during difficult times, individual therapy can provide you with the support, guidance, and tools you need to thrive.

It is common to experience highs and lows in relationships. If the lows are beginning to take a toll on your mental health, and you’re feeling lost and disconnected from your partner, then we can work together to restore harmony and build trust. By addressing your relational challenges in a safe and supportive space, you will feel heard, seen and understood.
Healing is possible. I will support you by getting to the heart of the matter. Together we will explore the deeper issues that are causing your relational distress. You and your partner will learn how to communicate while attending to each other’s emotions, perceptions, and underlying needs. You will learn how to hold space for each other’s hurt feelings and respond with compassion.
The goal of couple's therapy is to create a secure emotional bond based on love and empathy. Growth lies within the realm of discomfort and courage. I will support you in accessing your vulnerability with your partner in a protected, safe space. This openness has shown to build intimacy and a newfound sense of connectedness in relationships. Your comfort and growth is our priority. I look forward to walking alongside you and your partner's journey to reconnection.

walk and talk therapy
Walk and talk outdoor therapy offers a unique and refreshing approach to traditional counselling, harnessing the healing power of nature while engaging in therapeutic dialogue. By taking therapy sessions outdoors, clients can experience a multitude of benefits for their mental and emotional well-being. Walking side by side in a natural setting promotes a sense of freedom and openness, allowing individuals to feel more relaxed and comfortable discussing sensitive topics. The rhythmic movement of walking can also help reduce stress, anxiety, and depression, while increasing feelings of relaxation and clarity. Additionally, being surrounded by nature provides a serene backdrop for self-reflection and introspection, enhancing the therapeutic process. Overall, walk and talk outdoor therapy integrates the benefits of nature, movement, and therapeutic dialogue to support clients on their journey towards greater well-being and personal growth.
I provide counselling sessions online through a secure platform for health practitioners. Virtual appointments offer a convenient and flexible alternative to traditional in-person counselling, providing numerous benefits for individuals seeking mental health support. One of the key advantages is accessibility, as online appointments eliminate geographical barriers, allowing individuals to access therapy from the comfort of their own homes or any location with internet access that is deemed safe. This accessibility is particularly beneficial for those with mobility issues, busy schedules, or living in remote areas.
virtual/ online appointments
I have limited availability for in-person sessions at my office in Kerrisdale, Vancouver. While I strive to accommodate all individuals to the best of my ability, my current schedule restricts how many face-to-face sessions I can schedule each week. This limitation is intended to ensure that I can maintain the quality of service and attention each client deserves. I remain fully committed to providing support through alternative means, such as virtual sessions, with clients preferring in-person appointments for the first few sessions until there is an available opening. Thank you for your understanding and flexibility.
