I’m a Registered Counselling Practitioner (RCP) and have been working in the field since 2020, offering compassionate, client-centered support to children, adolescents, couples, and families. My approach is flexible and tailored to each individual’s needs. I draw on evidence-based practices such as Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) and Person-Centred Therapy, alongside more holistic, relational models like Nonviolent Communication (NVC).

In addition to traditional counselling, I offer Equine-Assisted Therapy—a powerful, experiential modality that helps clients build emotional awareness, confidence, and communication skills through meaningful interactions with horses. This approach can be especially impactful for children and teens who may find it difficult to connect through words alone.

I’m passionate about helping individuals and families explore and express their feelings and needs in safe, respectful ways. Whether in the counselling room or out on the ranch, my goal is to create a space where people feel seen, heard, and empowered to grow.

As a lifelong coach, I also bring years of experience as a riding instructor and vaulting coach as well as a ski and snowboard instructor, which has deepened my understanding of how confidence, connection, and growth are built through supportive guidance and experiential learning. Coaching continues to be a thread that runs through all areas of my work.

Outside of my counselling practice, I’m a wife, mother and long-time 4-H leader. These roles shape my understanding of the everyday joys and challenges families face. I bring warmth, authenticity, and deep respect for each person’s story to every session.

I work with adults and teenagers navigating anxiety, depression, ADHD, and life transitions. I help clients move forward by creating a safe and supportive environment where they feel heard and understood. Together, we focus on increasing self-awareness, strengthening emotional regulation, and building practical, sustainable coping strategies. The goal is not just short-term relief, but helping clients develop skills they can use outside of the therapy room.

Based out of Surrey, BC, and also working remotely, I have a passion for supporting individuals who are carrying the weight of anxiety, depression, self-worth issues, sexual abuse trauma, and family trauma. I know how deeply these experiences can affect the way we see ourselves, our relationships, and our ability to feel safe in the world.

Starting therapy and opening up can feel intimidating. You may not always know what to expect, and that’s okay. My goal is to walk alongside you at your pace, offering a safe, judgment-free space where you can share, process, and reconnect with yourself.

As your counsellor, I see my role as both a steady source of support and a guide who can offer you tools to heal and move forward in life. While we cannot change the past, together we can reduce its hold on the present and future so you can begin to live with more clarity, peace, and confidence in your authentic self.
