Provider information

Description

I work with individuals, couples, and those in non-monogamous relationships - in person in Nanaimo or online across BC. Maybe you're feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or tired of trying harder without anything really changing. Maybe you're looking for a counsellor who's practical and compassionate - someone who helps you make sense of what's keeping you stuck and build real skills to change it. I specialise in relationship patterns, life transitions, and anxiety, and draw on nervous system awareness and regulation tools alongside understanding your past experiences and vulnerabilities.
