I am a Registered Clinical Counsellor with the BCACC, trained in EMDR, Narrative Therapy, Solution Focused Therapy and Cognitive Behavioural Therapy. The client/counsellor relationship determines how best to move forward, with informed consent and clearly defined goals. Trauma, both great and small, is a common denominator for many mental health challenges. Often the experiences of our childhood create obstacles later in life. My own life experience and training, working with youth and adults, allows for a safe, non-judgemental space from which to learn strategies to manage life and move forward, with renewed energy and hope.
My undergrad degree in English Literature provides purchase for empathy and fascination of the human condition. My degree in Education determines my intent to instill curiosity and empowerment. My Masters degree in Counselling Psychology allows me to put into practice all that I’ve lived and learned.
I am a life long learner.
