I’m excited to now call the Okanagan home after recently moving from northern BC. With over 10 years of experience in the helping profession, I’ve had the privilege of working with a diverse range of people, including men on parole, children and teens in school settings, Indigenous communities, and have had various roles within the counselling world. Most recently, I have been in a leadership position at a non-profit organization where I provide both counselling services and clinical supervision.
I hold a Bachelor of Arts in First Nations Studies and a Master of Education in Counselling, both from the University of Northern British Columbia. My passion for mental health and counselling drives me to continuously grow and deepen my practice, ensuring I bring the best possible support to those I work with.
Outside of work, I enjoy music, riding bikes, and tattoo culture, in addition to indulging in all things nerdy, and playing in the dirt.
My approach to therapy is client-centered, integrative, and collaborative. I believe therapy should be tailored and individualized to the person seeking support, so together we will explore what works best for you. You are the expert of your own experiences, even when it might not feel that way, and my role is to support and guide you in finding solutions that resonate with your therapeutic needs and goals.
Creating a strong therapeutic relationship is at the heart of my work. I strive to build trust and establish a safe, supportive space so clients can feel comfortable exploring aspects of themselves. Through this process, I support clients to gain deeper insight, understanding, and clarity, empowering them to make meaningful changes.
I draw from a variety of evidence-based therapeutic approaches, including Narrative Therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Emotion-Focused Therapy (EFT), and Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), tailoring our sessions to align with your personal preferences and circumstances.
