I am a Registered Clinical Counsellor (RCC) with BCACC (#20087). I have over 20 years of experience helping people reach their full potential; be it as a personal trainer, coach, or therapist. I have coached and counselled people at all stages and places in their lives, from teenagers with low self-worth to elite athletes wishing to gain a mental edge in their sport.
I view every client as unique and use an integrated approach to therapy. This may include taking a client-centred, non-judgmental, and strength-based approach.
The relationship between counsellor and client is critical to success; therefore, mutual trust, understanding and respect are the cornerstones of my practice. I take a practical, action-orientated approach that often challenges and pushes clients out of their comfort zone. I use an integrated approach in therapy using a combination of Solution Focused Therapy, Motivational Interviewing, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Narrative Therapy, Positive Psychology, and logo therapy, depending on the client’s needs and preferences. Generally, I use a non-judgmental strength-based approach.
I became a clinical counsellor because I love helping people achieve their goals, overcome challenges, and move closer to their potential. My goal with every client is to get them to a place where they no longer need me.
