I am a dedicated and compassionate Registered Professional Counsellor (RPC-c) with a Diploma in Professional Counselling from Kelowna College of Professional Counselling. Naturally, I am a natural healer, and I am often the place where friends and family ask me for help, support, and advice. This deep-seated desire to help others guided me to embrace my true calling in mental health.

My personal and professional journey, enriched by diverse experiences, has provided me with a profound understanding of various client needs. This, combined with my therapeutic education, expertise and life experiences, enables me to create a warm and empathetic environment where clients feel genuinely heard and understood. My cozy office space in downtown Kelowna offers a welcoming and safe atmosphere with free parking.

I specialize in ADHD, particularly in girls and women, as well as relationship counselling, anxiety and depression management, life transitions, trauma, grief, and personal growth. My own experiences with ADHD and relationship counselling have driven my passion to be the counsellor I needed during those times.

What sets me apart is my unique blend of directness and empathy. I ask probing questions that help clients better understand themselves, identifying areas for self-reflection and growth. I am passionate about research, professional development, and finding the techniques that best support my clients.

Balancing my professional life with personal interests and family commitments is crucial. As a devoted partner and mother of two plus a fur baby, I prioritize family while ensuring I spend enough time on self-care. I love outdoor activities like hiking, paddle boarding, and spending time at the beach. I enjoy going to the gym, yoga, and travelling whenever possible in colder months.

For those thinking about counselling for the first time, please look at the 15-minute free consult to ensure you are a good fit with your counsellor. The counsellor-patient relationship significantly impacts therapy’s progress and outcomes.

In my practice, I support clients in setting and achieving personal goals through achievable short-term and long-term objectives, regularly reevaluating and adjusting them. I also incorporate recommended reading and homework to maximize the benefits of our sessions.

Looking ahead, I am committed to honing my skills, and my dedication to personal growth and professional development ensures I provide the most effective care for my clients.
