Are you feeling weighed down by worry, loneliness, or a sense that something just isn't right? You're not alone, and it's okay to ask for help. As a dedicated therapist, I'm here to journey alongside you, guiding you towards genuine happiness and fulfillment.
In this space, the power of courage, compassion, and connection is honoured. This is a place where your story is not only heard but deeply valued. Here, vulnerability becomes our bridge to authenticity and joy.
While anxiety can serve a purpose, persistent and overwhelming feelings can negatively impact your well-being and relationships. This guide presents three evidence-based techniques to help you regulate your nervous system and manage anxiety effectively.
I provide warm, interactive, nonjudgmental counseling, rooted in trust and respect. Your comfort and our relationship drive lasting change. I offer both in-office and online therapy in Vancouver, BC, using talk therapy, evidence-based methods, and mindfulness to address stress, anxiety, burnout, and more.
My identity and commitment to understand my privilege as a white, cisgendered, heterosexual woman, my many years of experience as a professional actor and singer, holistic nutritionist, yoga teacher and endurance athlete, my experience in marriage and motherhood, all inform my work as a therapist.
I offer one-on-one counselling for adults and teens, providing a safe and supportive space to address various challenges such as anxiety, burnout, self-esteem, life transitions, depression, perfectionism, and relational trauma. Together, we will develop a personalized approach drawing from evidence-based therapies to empower you on your journey towards emotional well-being and personal growth.
Your work is your passion and your identity. Loved ones struggle to understand your sacrifices and you may feel torn between a longing for stability and the excitement of the creative life you love. Counselling can help you create balance and security within your unique lifestyle.
You never feel like you’re enough, and this constant doubt weighs heavily on your heart, dimming your joy and stifling your potential. Counselling can help you unearth your inherent worth, quiet the inner critic, and foster an authentic sense of self-love.
Neglecting your own needs creates a ripple of discomfort throughout your life, leading to stress, resentment, and dissatisfaction. Counselling can help you gain the clarity and skills to identify and honor your needs, allowing you to set boundaries and assert yourself with confidence and grace.
