TL;DR
Individual and couples counselling for adults, in person in Nanaimo or online.
You don’t have to do this alone.
We’ll explore what’s stuck, make sense of it, and move you toward real change — with warmth, clarity, and depth.
Welcome
A place to tune in.
A place to reconnect and realign.
A place where insight becomes action.
There are moments in life when something inside us tightens, dims, or goes quiet. Sometimes it’s obvious — a relationship in distress, anxiety that won’t release, a rupture that lingers. Other times it’s harder to name. You may look functional on the outside, yet feel disconnected, overwhelmed, or subtly alone within.
​
Therapy, as I practice it, is not about fixing you. It is about creating the conditions where your own inner wisdom can be heard again.
​
Together, we listen — to your emotions, your body, your relational patterns, your longings, your protectors. We move at a pace that honours your nervous system. We get curious about the strategies that once kept you safe and explore whether they still serve you now.
​
As patterns soften, space opens. As space opens, new possibilities emerge — in how you relate, how you choose, how you inhabit your life.
​
You are not behind. You are not too much. You are not broken.
You are in the midst of becoming.

​
I am a Master’s-level counsellor and a Certified Canadian Counsellor (CCC) with the Canadian Counselling and Psychotherapy Association. I work with adults and couples in Nanaimo, BC and online.
​
My approach is relational, experiential, and depth-oriented. I am informed by attachment science, parts work, emotionally focused therapy, somatic awareness, sex therapy, and psychedelic-assisted therapy and integration. These frameworks guide my work — but they do not confine it.
​
More than any single model, I trust the intelligence of the human system. Our symptoms often carry meaning. Our defenses once made sense. The psyche moves in spirals rather than straight lines.
​
In our work together, I attend to what is happening beneath the surface — the emotional currents, the attachment longings, the subtle ways your body signals safety or threat. Insight matters, but integration matters more. Change that lasts is change that is embodied.
​
My role is not to lead you somewhere foreign. It is to help you feel steady enough to explore what is already within you.

I acknowledge with deep respect and gratitude that I live and work on the traditional, ancestral, and unceded territories of the Snuneymuxw First Nation. As a counselling practice, I recognize the importance of healing, connection, and reconciliation — values that have long been held and practised by Indigenous communities here and across Turtle Island. I am committed to walking with humility and openness, learning from the teachings of this land and its original stewards as I support wellness and growth for all who come through my door.
