Hi there! You’ve found a space where life’s messy and beautiful parts can peacefully coexist. I encourage nuance, sparked in my own queerness and experience supporting neurodivergent folx, and welcome anyone seeking a place to pause, explore, and reshape what truly matters to them. Many of the folx I support are questioning the “rules” they’ve been given about who they should be. They’re often navigating changes in identity and relationships, shifts that are deeply connected, and feel the weight of those changes in their bodies, whether through burnout, grief, or the sense of not fitting into systems around them. Together, we’ll slow down to tune into your relationships, connect with your body and emotions, and reflect on the rich identities, communities, experiences, and questions that guide the growth and changes you want in your life.

My approach to counselling makes space for you, your relationships, and awareness of the systems around you. I centre you in the healing—your pace, values, and the stories that shape you—and I tend to explore these layers through metaphors, visuals, and questions. I believe my role is to provide structure to allow you to discover and strengthen the inner resources that you already possess, while experimenting with tools and narratives that fit your unfolding story. I see counselling as one piece to the puzzle, and our time together will also explore how to build in support and resources that are with you for the long run.
To give you some context on who I am, how I got here, and why that matters: I am a cisqueer, nondisabled, white woman of Italian and British/English heritage. I was born and raised on the unceded (meaning stolen) and ancestral territories of the xʷməθkwəy̓əm (Musqueam), Skwxwú7mesh (Squamish), S’ólh Téméxw (Stó:lō), and Səl̓ílwətaʔ/Selilwitulh (Tsleil-Waututh) peoples in so-called North Vancouver and in recent years moved to the territories of the Kwikwetlem (kʷikʷəƛ̓əm) and q̓ic̓əy̓ (kat-zee)peoples in so-called Coquitlam. My upbringing and cultural roots, as well as my family experiences—especially growing up with a parent with mental illness—shape how I understand wellness. Our mental health systems are difficult to navigate and I know how crucial relationships and community are to our wellbeing and building bridges to support in our porous system.
Beyond my counselling hat, I am a community co-creator and moving soul. I’ve played team sports all my life—most influentially rugby and soccer—navigating the challenges and cheers of those spaces as they intersect with my queer identity and love for contexts that celebrate a woman’s strength and strategy. I am inspired by community events that centre diverse voices through art and story, specifically ones that push beyond the social ‘boxes’ or remind us of the historically and beautifully celebrated identities predating colonial oppression. Alongside these passions, I balance my time with cooking a vegan dish and burning through reality tv, staying active outside with friends, and making art with no direction.
Finding a counsellor that aligns who you are, the resources you have access to, and what you hope to build is a tricky intersection. If you’ve felt seen or curious here, I’d love to offer a free consultation to connect and explore what your messy beauty might want to become.
