I use a slow and controlled, attentive approach to massage therapy, focusing on working thoroughly and gradually to address the root of your discomfort over weeks and months to get you feeling your best. I believe that therapeutic pressure is unique to each person, and my main goal is to find the level that allows your body to release without pain, bracing or holding your breath.
My treatments are collaborative, and focused on helping you move, feel and function better in your day-to-day life. Typical treatment techniques used in combination with breath work are myofascial release, trigger point therapy, proprioceptive neuromuscular facilitation (PNF), muscle energy technique (MET),Swedish massage, pre and post-natal massage and lymph drainage. If you are looking to integrate massage therapy into a holistic, long-term care plan to feel well, I would love to work with you.
Outside of work I have a busy family life with 2 small kids and an Australian cattle dog. When I have a moment, you’ll find me reading page-turner books, going for nature walks or riding my bike.

Everyone has struggles, yet each person is capable of growth and healing. As a counsellor, I aim to provide a safe, non-judgmental space where individuals feel heard and understood and to help individuals recognize their potential by deepening their self-awareness.
For over 20 yrs, I taught in elementary schools across BC. While I loved teaching, my transition to counselling was driven by a desire to support individuals on their mental health and wellness journeys.
My special interests are
● Coping with anxiety & stress
● Depression
● Neurodivergence
● Relationship and Communication Skills
● Trauma
● OEI Therapy
● Safe & Sound Protocol
I look forward to working with children, teens, adults, couples, families and groups.
In my personal life, I enjoy being active in the outdoors, gardening, and spending time with my loved ones and my dogs.

I love to journey alongside people as they work through hurts and challenges in life… to be present through meaningful and transformative experiences for you.
Maybe you are struggling with dissociation, trauma or abuse, depression & anxiety, struggles with living in a world that can be not-so friendly to your neurodiversity. I can offer some unique therapies like EMDR, OEI, ACT and CBT, to help. I am most influenced by existentialism and Virginia Satir’s model of transformational Family systems therapy.

I am a Functional Nutrition therapist, which is a career that has become my calling, after I made an incredible recovery from debilitating symptoms and 4 rare chronic illnesses. Through my own health journey, I have become passionate about treating mental health and illness differently. My therapy is based on my background in psychology, mental health and trauma, along with the principles of Functional Medicine and Functional Nutrition. It is deeply rooted in scientific evidence. I emphasize a natural approach to restoring optimal functioning in your body and works to resolve the root cause, not chase symptoms! I focus on nourishment, not diets, and adding in, not restricting. Food is medicine. mindset is medicine. Lifestyle is medicine. Together, we have the power to restore, balance, heal and create health.
When I am not in the clinic, I can be found spending time with my amazing family, outside in nature, being active, cultivating balance, loving and appreciating life like never before.
