As a Psychotherapist based in Vancouver, Canada, I offer online and in-person sessions, working with people of all genders, orientations, and backgrounds. At the heart of what I do is deep listening. This means, I not only hear your words, but I attune myself to the meaning and emotions underneath them. I want to understand who you are, so together we can explore the issues, concerns, and patterns that are impacting your life. With the integration of evidence-based therapies, I create a gentle yet deliberate pace that supports your own inner exploration, healing, and personal growth.

Over the last two decades, I’ve worked in non-profits, public policy, consulting, social justice, and the arts, both nationally and internationally, in settings ranging from remote areas to urban centres. My work has been grounded in relationships with Indigenous communities, newcomers, and a wide range of people across society. I decided to pursue a career in counselling psychology out of a profound desire for clarity: to listen deeply to my environment, to others, and within the self.

I am no stranger to pain. I understand that life does not always go in the direction we want. And I have benefited immensely from the therapy that I have received throughout my life. From this, I have learned that it takes a great deal of courage to live authentically.

I am a Registered Clinical Counsellor with the BC Association of Clinical Counsellors, Member of the Adlerian Psychology Association of BC, and a 2024 Launchpad Fellowship Recipient. In my personal journey, I have drawn strength from my relationships built in community and from matriarch leaders. This education has informed all aspects of my life, including my work as a counsellor. I have also enjoyed education in institutional settings and have completed several advanced degrees and trainings. These include a Master of Counselling Psychology from Adler University, a Master of Arts in Acoustic Communication from Simon Fraser University, Internal Family Systems (IFS) training, Gottman Method Couples Therapy, and Observed & Experiential Integration (OEI).

To fuel my creative spirit, I have an active Sound Art practice, I produce podcasts, and I recently started doing stand-up comedy. I also grow a garden. Being in or on the water with family and friends brings me great joy and I love hanging around on boats.

My work, education, and personal journey have brought me to places around the globe from Denmark and New York to remote coastal communities in South Africa and British Columbia. However, I grew up on the North Shore of Vancouver, BC in the territories of the xʷməθkʷəy̓əm (Musqueam), Sḵwx̱wú7mesh (Squamish), and səlilwətaɬ (Tsleil-Waututh) Nations, where I am now based and rooted.

These lands and waters have shaped who I have become and how I belong to the world. I am grateful for the people who have stewarded these territories for tens of thousands of years, so that we can be here today.
