Registered Therapeutic Counsellor
Registered Professional Counsellor - Candidate
My Story
Since my adolescence, I've had challenges with depression, anxiety, overthinking, and people pleasing. Because I felt so alone in the world, I struggled to cultivate healthy relationships. I was brought up to believe that the only emotion I could exhibit was happiness, so I would put on a happy mask and act like everything was fine. I didn't love myself, and I always prioritised other people over myself in the hopes that occasionally someone would do the same for me.
​
It took me many years of therapy to get to a point where I realised that I was sabotaging both myself and my relationships (platonic, romantic, and family) because I was terrified of being too much, not enough, or not worthy of love. From there, I worked on bringing awareness to my thoughts and behaviours, re-authoring limiting beliefs, creating healthy boundaries, and loving myself unconditionally.
​
This is something that I continue to work on day in and day out. As each day passes, my relationship with myself and others has continued to flourish.
​
I received my Life Coach and Professional Counsellor Diploma from Rhodes Wellness College in Vancouver, BC. I am a Registered Therapeutic Counsellor with ACCT, the Association of Cooperative Counselling Therapists, and a Registered Professional Counsellor - Candidate with CPCA, the Canadian Professional Counsellors Association.
My Approach
My therapeutic approach is focused on empowering clients with strategies and tools they can use in their everyday lives to improve their relationships with others. This involves diving into the difficult topics and addressing deeper issues that may be contributing to interpersonal challenges.
​
You can expect a warm and non-judgmental space where you can openly explore your challenges. We will work collaboratively with you to uncover the underlying causes of your challenges and provide practical tools and techniques to enhance your relationships.
​
I have unconditional positive regard for every person that crosses my path, and I am passionate about helping others get unstuck, strengthening their mental and emotional health, having healthier relationships with others, and loving every part of themselves.
