I am a Registered Clinical Counsellor and a Certified Group Psychotherapist with a Masters Degree in Counselling Psychology. I have over 30 years of clinical experience in the mental health and addiction fields. For the past 22 years I have had a private practice serving West Vancouver, North Vancouver, Metro Vancouver, and Burnaby.
My practice offers
- short term individual counselling & long term psychotherapy for adults – 18 and up
- couples counselling
- group psychotherapy
- women’s self-esteem group
- zoom online therapy
- clinical consultation for therapists
Providing a safe, confidential and professional setting, I work from a Psychodynamic and Relational framework, but also utilize other approaches such as Cognitive Behavioural therapy.
I work with a variety of issues including
- anxiety, stress and burnout
- depression
- identity and self-esteem issues
- perfectionism
- relationship and intimacy problems
and have extensive experience with
- adults who have suffered trauma and
abuse as children - adult children of alcoholics
- addictions and codependency
My work with couples and individuals helps them improve their relationships and communication skills, while helping those looking for relationships find and overcome the roadblocks that have prevented their success. Assessment, referral and post treatment follow-up therapy for individuals with alcohol and drug abuse problems is also offered through my practice.
Couples Therapy
In addition to my original training and experience working with couples, I have completed the basic and advanced training in the Gottman Method couples therapy and assessment.
