Online Counselling Across British Columbia
Counselling shaped by experience, compassion and what works in real life.
People come to counselling for different reasons. You may be feeling overwhelmed, stuck in familiar patterns, navigating a major life change, or simply wanting a clearer understanding of yourself and what you need.
Individual Counselling
Sometimes life just becomes too much to carry on your own. You may be feeling anxious, low, overwhelmed, disconnected, stuck in your thoughts, or finding it hard to cope with things that have happened in your life.
Counselling can give you a space to talk openly, feel understood, and begin making sense of what is going on. Together, we can work on practical ways to manage difficult emotions, feel more grounded, and help you move toward feeling more like yourself again.
Practical Support
Practical tools and strategies to help you handle difficult moments, feel more confident in how you respond, and make everyday life feel more manageable.
Trauma-Informed
Support that considers your experiences, nervous system and individual needs, while moving at a pace that feels safe, respectful, and right for you.
Skills-Focused
Build emotional regulation, coping and relationship skills that you can use in everyday life and carry with you long after counselling ends.
Parent & Caregiver Support
Support for parents and families who feel stuck in the same patterns of stress, conflict, overwhelm or disconnection. Together, we focus on understanding what is beneath the behaviour and building practical strategies that create more calm, connection and confidence at home.
Understand the Pattern
Look beyond the behaviour to understand what may be driving stress, conflict, shutdown or disconnection.
Build Practical Skills
Develop practical strategies for emotional regulation, communication, problem solving and responding more effectively when things escalate.
Strengthen Connection
Build connection, confidence and more workable patterns between parents, caregivers, children and teens.
Direct Service & Helping Professionals
Specialized support for professionals who carry the emotional weight of helping others. With more than 25 years of experience on the frontlines, outreach and clinical work, I understand the realities of burnout, vicarious trauma, compassion fatigue, difficult cases, high responsibility and the pressure to keep functioning when the work follows you home.
Sessions can focus on burnout, compassion fatigue, vicarious trauma, difficult cases, boundaries, emotional regulation, and staying connected to yourself outside of the work.
Reduce Burnout
Burnout can build slowly over time. You may start feeling more tired, disconnected, cynical, overwhelmed, or begin seeing the world through a darker lens. This is a space to notice those changes, understand what is happening, and learn practical skills to manage stress, regulate your nervous system, strengthen boundaries, and reconnect with the parts of yourself that the work can sometimes push into the background.
Process the Work
Working with children and youth who have experienced trauma can expose you to things most people never see or hear. Those experiences can stay with you and sometimes change how you see the world, how you relate to others, and how you see yourself. This is a space to talk openly about what you are carrying, what has stayed with you, and how the work is affecting you.
Protect Your Well-Being
Helping work can take up a lot of emotional space, even when you care deeply about what you do. This is a space to reconnect with the parts of yourself that exist outside of the job, strengthen the relationships and routines that keep you grounded, and make sure the work does not become the only thing shaping how you feel, think, and move through your life.
Clinical Assessment
A comprehensive, non-diagnostic assessment helps make sense of the bigger picture when things feel complicated, overlapping or hard to sort out. Using a biopsychosocial approach, we look at emotional well-being, behaviour, relationships, life experiences, physical health, stress, environment, strengths and day-to-day functioning.
Non-diagnostic means I am not providing a formal diagnosis. Instead, the assessment is used to identify patterns, better understand what may be contributing to current concerns and develop practical recommendations that can help guide treatment and next steps. It can also help clarify whether a formal diagnostic assessment may be useful and provide information to support conversations with a physician, psychologist or other qualified diagnostic professional.
A Clearer Picture
A comprehensive, non-diagnostic assessment gathers biopsychosocial information to better understand current concerns, strengths and patterns. It can help inform recommendations and guide a more comprehensive treatment plan.
Written Report
A clear clinical summary outlining findings, strengths, areas of need and individualized recommendations. The report can help organize key information and support planning for next steps.
Feedback and Next Steps
A follow-up session to review the assessment, answer questions and discuss recommendations or referrals. We can also talk through practical next steps and whether further assessment or support may be helpful.
Trauma Therapy
Traumatic experiences can affect both the mind and body, shaping emotions, relationships, stress responses and our sense of safety.
Trauma can change the way you move through the world. You may feel constantly on alert, shut down, disconnected, overwhelmed, or find that your body reacts before your mind has time to catch up.
In therapy, we can make sense of those responses, understand how your nervous system has adapted to what you have lived through, and build skills to help you feel more grounded, connected, and in control.
Women, ADHD & Executive Functioning
Individual counselling can support concerns such as anxiety, depression, ADHD, executive functioning, trauma, burnout, grief, and emotional regulation.
Burnout & Compassion Fatigue
Parent and family support can help when emotions, communication or behaviour are creating stress at home. Session focus on understanding patterns, strengthening connection and building practical strategies that fit your family.
Parent & Caregiver Support
Direct service professionals can experience burnout, compassion fatigue, vicarious trauma and ongoing workplace stress. Counselling offers a confidential space to process the impact of the work, strengthen boundaries and reconnect with what is sustainable.
Grief & Loss
Sometimes it helps to step back and look at the bigger picture. Clinical assessment and consultation can help clarify patterns, strengths, concerns and next steps. Assessments are collaborative and non-diagnostic.
