About
Do you often feel anxiety crowding your thought? Or do you worry about “little things” and cannot understand why others dismiss your worries so easily? You are not alone. Together we can work on coping strategies to help manage your anxiety, stress, and general overwhelming feelings in daily life.
I bring experience, education, and passion to my practice. With over a decade of professional experience counselling children, teens, and adults, I help support them through anxiety, stress, parenting, spiritual questions, and other life challenges. My education includes Bachelor of Arts in Caregiving and Counselling from Columbia Bible College and a Masters of Arts in Counselling Psychology from Trinity Western University, as well as continuing education. I am passionate about supporting clients who struggle with anxiety and assisting them to find ways to interact in their daily life without feeling hindered by their mental health. I would love to support you through the hard parts of life, and together find ways to improve your daily life.
I work from a client-centered perspective, meaning this is all about your process. Using a combination of Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, solution focused, emotional-focused and/or play/art therapy, we will create a plan around your goals. I approach counselling from a holistic perspective, recognizing the various aspects of our lives – physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual. As such, I am comfortable integrating a faith-based perspective, if you desire to be a part of your counselling journey.
