Therapists in Richmond, BC
In our journey of life, we may encounter experiences, emotions, and patterns that make it challenging for us to feel a sense of fulfillment in life. Participating in counselling can help you navigate and process these challenges, either from the past or present moment, constructively and build a more meaningful and satisfying life with new coping strategies and skills, insight and self-awareness, and changes in behaviours/environment through in-depth exploration of self. We are all work in progress, and although it can be daunting to begin this process, it can help you find that inner spark to change how you feel about your life.

It is an honour and privilege to walk alongside people as they navigate times when they may feel pain, confusion, or stuckness. The values I bring into the counselling space are acceptance, an environment where safety can be felt, and collaborating with them to learn about how their distress is impacting them and working together with them in strengthening their sense of themselves and their relationships. In my work with my clients, I also value celebrating triumphs as they work towards being the person they want to be.

Welcome and thank you for being here. Whether you are new to therapy or returning for support, I can help you get unstuck, increase awareness, build practical skills, address underlying themes, break patterns, set boundaries, and get back to a place of greater connectedness to yourself and others. My approach to counselling strives to provide you with a compassionate and validating space to do your inner work. There’s nothing “too small/big” or “weird” that can’t be talked about in therapy so long as you feel safe enough to do so. My aim is to ensure you feel heard, understood, supported and safe in therapy.

Do you feel anxious or depressed or hopeless? Have you experienced a loss? Are you struggling with a lack of direction or purpose? Or, perhaps you are experiencing difficulty with others. I work with adults experiencing grief, anxiety, depression, and relationship issues. I have a decade of healthcare experience working with a diverse population of individuals and families experiencing traumatic grief, and loss.

Are you feeling disconnected from those around you, overwhelmed, stuck in difficult relationship patterns, or weighed down by anxious or heavy feelings? Maybe you’re frustrated by the same struggles showing up in your relationships, or feeling out of place in your family, workplace, or community. You might be dealing with relational stress, insomnia, chronic pain, grieving a loss, or confusion around your identity or sexuality. Perhaps cultural or family expectations have left you drained. With support, you can reconnect with yourself and others, and start feeling more fulfilled and at peace.

The nature of life's experiences and living can be exceptionally fulfilling and at the same time provoke incredible challenges that have the ability to evoke internal chaos. We may not be able to control what happens to us, but we do have control over how we address, engage with, and continue to move forward given these challenges. My belief is that therapy is a place of healing, learning, and growth. My aim is to create a safe, trusting space in therapy facilitated through non-judgemental and non-pathologizing approaches.

My ideal client would be someone who is willing to examine and understand their own potentially limiting narrative, which we all have. This disposition allows us to open up new ways of thinking which in turn promotes motivation, inner-strength and a sense of empowerment. Together, we can start to apply these internal adjustments to their external life in order to achieve their goals. To facilitate this, I like to give manageable homework. For example, I may have my client identify their specific unhelpful thought pattern, re-frame it and apply it tangibly to outside relationships.

I integrate a trauma informed, socially just and culturally responsive approach to my sessions in which I honour the unique and diverse identity narratives and life experiences each client holds. I will help you explore how your past, emotions, thoughts, beliefs, and behaviours contribute to your current struggles, while exploring different ways of being that invite greater opportunity for joy, freedom, meaning and connection. With a curious and empathetic attitude, I will work collaboratively with you, at your pace, to help you find clarity, meaning and help you uncover the tools your already have within you to move forward.

The people I often work with are struggling with the feeling that they don't belong anywhere - whether that be with friends, family or at school, or work. They feel like they aren't 'good enough,' to be in the spaces or roles that they are in. Some find their relationships complicated - with friends, family, or romantic partners - where others don’t understand their values and what they want. You deserve to be heard, you deserve to live life on your terms with your values, and you deserve space to belong.
