My Difference
As a therapist committed to accessibility in Vancouver, I offer a client-centred, process-oriented approach and believe that positive change is possible. Here are some key elements that set my practice apart:
Broad Range of Expertise
I work with a wide variety of issues, including anxiety, depression, neurodiversity, gender and sexuality, relationships, trauma (episodic and developmental), family dynamics, post-traumatic stress, attachment dynamics, phobias, insecurity, anger, grief, obsessive and compulsive behaviors, dissociation, and peak performance.
Diverse Clientele Experience
I have extensive experience working with clients from diverse cultural backgrounds, age groups, gender and sexuality identities, and socioeconomic levels, ensuring a culturally attuned and inclusive practice.
Integrative Approach
My approach to clinical counselling is rooted in the belief that the body holds knowledge that cannot always be expressed through words. I incorporate cognitive and emotional processing techniques, psycho-education, and exploration of emotional and behavioral patterns. I am certified in Somatic EMDR, further enhancing my ability to address trauma and promote healing.
Age and Life Experience
My age and life experience set me apart from many counsellors. I bring a depth of understanding and wisdom that enriches my therapeutic practice.
Authentic Connection
Clients often tell me that I am authentic, genuine, and easy to connect with. This natural rapport can make the therapeutic process more comfortable and effective.
Trauma-Focused Expertise
My work is heavily focused on trauma, utilizing the latest techniques and research to help clients heal and grow.
Focus on Connection and Self-Awareness
I believe that change is possible through connection and self-awareness. My aim is to work alongside you, helping you gain safety and comfort in your life, relationships, body, and self. Together, we will find what fits for you.
Continuous Learning and Professional Development
I hold a Master’s degree in Counselling Psychology from UBC and am committed to staying up-to-date with the latest research and developments in the field. I have undertaken extensive training in trauma work, EFT, and somatic approaches, ensuring that my practice is informed by the most current and effective therapeutic techniques.
Holistic Support and Empathy
My hope is that you always leave our interactions feeling seen, heard, and supported in your growth and healing journey. I encourage clients to slow down and turn towards their difficult emotions with curiosity rather than judgment, drawing inspiration from Rumi's "The Guest House." Engaging in sliding scale therapy can be a transformative step towards achieving well-being and living your most authentic and fulfilling life. My practice is dedicated to providing the support and understanding needed for you to thrive, regardless of your financial situation.
