I’m a Registered Clinical Counsellor supporting individuals, teens, and youth who are navigating anxiety, emotional overwhelm, burnout, people-pleasing, and self-criticism. I offer virtual counselling across British Columbia and in-person sessions in Vancouver.

My goal is to create a calm, grounded, and non-judgmental space for clients who may feel hesitant, stuck, or unsure about starting therapy. At Wellness Talks, I work collaboratively with clients to develop a clear treatment plan and set meaningful short and long-term goals together, so therapy feels supportive, structured, and aligned with your personal growth.

Many of the people I work with appear high-functioning on the outside but feel exhausted or disconnected internally. Together, we slow things down, build insight into emotional patterns, and develop tools that strengthen confidence, boundaries, and emotional regulation.
