Compassionate therapy rooted in presence, curiosity, and connection

I'm a Registered Clinical Counsellor based in the Comox Valley, working with individuals, couples, and families across British Columbia.

My work is rooted in helping people authentically relate to themselves and others, through compassion, presence, and curiosity.

I’m especially passionate about supporting those who feel stuck in protective patterns that no longer serve them, or who long for deeper connection and emotional safety in their relationships.

I integrate approaches such as Internal Family Systems (IFS), Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT), and Gabor Maté’s Compassionate Inquiry. Depending on your needs and interests, we might explore somatic awareness, breathwork, or creative expression like song writing, painting, or improvising with instruments.

You don’t have to “perform” your healing here.
You are welcome exactly as you are.
