Begins seeing clients on April 23rd HOURS: Tues 11am-6pm, Thurs 10:30am-5:30pm, Sat 12pm-4pm >LOCATIONS I SERVE: BC, Yukon Hi there — I’m Shala, and I’m glad you’re here. I believe therapy works best when people feel supported, and my goal is to create a safe and welcoming space for everyone. I approach counselling with a commitment to social justice, inclusivity, and holistic wellness, recognizing the many ways that our experiences—both internal and external—impact our mental and emotional health. My approach is grounded in anti-oppression, decolonization, anti-racism, and intersectional feminism, and I view wellness holistically, recognizing the transformative potential of therapy that integrates social justice principles. I am passionate about creating a therapeutic space where Black, Indigenous, and People of Colour (BIPOC) are truly seen, heard, and centered. In our work together, I walk alongside you on your healing journey, helping you to overcome challenges and navigate life’s ups and downs. I draw from evidence-based approaches like Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), mindfulness practices, and psychoeducation to help break unhelpful patterns, build coping skills, and develop practical tools for lasting change. My approach is gentle, collaborative, and tailored to your needs. I aim to empower clients to feel more confident, resilient, and in control of their lives, whether you’re managing stress, anxiety, life transitions, or simply looking to grow and thrive. I am committed to fostering an inclusive and empowering environment where all clients feel valued, supported, and equipped to pursue their personal growth and emotional well-being. If you are seeking culturally responsive, trauma-informed counselling, or support in developing strategies to manage stress, anxiety, or life transitions, I would be honoured to support you on your journey toward healing and well-being. EXPERIENCE I am a Registered Social Worker with the B.C. College of Social Workers and hold both Bachelor and Master's degrees from the Toronto Metropolitan University. I bring over 13 years of work experience within the health and social service sectors. Over the last 8 years I have focused my practice on supporting patients/clients and their family members through destabilizing times of change within various hospitals, primary care clinical settings, and in private practice.
