Think of me as your emotional coach. I’ll help you understand and communicate emotions; stop bottling up and suppressing feelings; manage anxiety and anger; get unstuck from helplessness and depression; stop people-pleasing and boost your self-esteem. If you tried counselling but haven’t uncovered core issues, your progress plateaued, or didn’t gain anything from it and you wish to achieve deep, lasting changes in your feelings, thoughts, and behaviours, then you are ready to stop talking in circles and start tackling your problems head-on to make real progress.
I will intentionally help you pause and slow things down to explore the underlying processes that are keeping you stuck in unhelpful cycles/patterns. Together we will make a tangible plan to break the cycles, process traumas, practice strategies to support yourself outside of session, and ensure you are continuously improving in your life and relationships.
Overall, my skills and experience enable me to support you in achieving emotional wellbeing, integrity, empathy, and connection with yourself and others. The first step toward change is always the hardest, yet once that step has been made, I believe everyone has the innate capacity for positive transformation. I am here to help you remove the barriers.
Sessions offered both online and in-person at 214-3001 Tutt Street, Kelowna, BC, V1Y 2H4. I provide direct billing for: RCMP, Veterans Affairs Canada (VAC), FNHA, and Pacific Blue Cross.

I’m a Family Systems Therapist who has been in practice since 1988. I work with men from a family of origin or a family systems approach. This means, in part, that I think of men and their emotional functioning within a systems framework. I think about how their sense of themselves, and their emotional function has been shaped by the relational dynamic of their friends and family, past and present. This then contributes to emotional health symptoms like depression.

I work from a trauma-informed and strengths-based approach. I believe that you have everything you need to heal within you and lead a more authentic and meaningful life, and my work with you will help bring that out. I use a cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) lens. I believe your thoughts, emotions, and behaviours are all interconnected and each one of them impacts and affects the other.

However, I also often use other modalities in my practice based on your individual needs. Some other modalities I use are acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT), Gestalt, and observed experiential integration (OEI) level 1.

Regardless of the modalities I use with you in our work together, I place a huge emphasis on getting to know you and your story.

I specialize in supporting men navigating emotional regulation, anger, depression, anxiety, burnout, and relationship challenges. My clients often struggle with perfectionism, work pressure, identity and purpose questions, and the tension between independence and vulnerability.

My approach integrates CBT, EFT, and trauma-informed care to help clients build insight, develop practical coping strategies, and strengthen communication and relational skills. I provide a collaborative and culturally humble space for exploring identity, values, and patterns, with the goal of fostering resilience and meaningful change.

My main focus is understanding the people I work with. I am curious about why we behave, think, and feel like we do and I want to help you know your life story more meaningfully. The most important relationship you can have is the one you have with yourself. My goal is to help people learn how to reconnect and rediscover themselves, with the aim of cultivating a more compassionate and understanding relationship with oneself, ultimately leading to a greater understanding of who you truly are. As a directive therapist, my approach is marked by a profound intuition, a keen attunement to others, and an unwavering sense of compassion. In our sessions, we’ll delve into the art of emotional regulation and fortify the mind-body connection.

I enjoy working with men to explore their personal narratives and how these stories have influenced their sense of identity and emotional wellbeing. I offer a unique multi-cultural perspective, influenced by work experience and living abroad. This mindset paired with a trauma-informed practice allows me to create a safe space for therapeutic change. I enjoy working with men with diverse experiences and identities from all walks of life to explore how internal narratives may be impacting mental wellbeing. My goal is to create an environment that feels safe and inspires growth.

We all need an outlet outside of family, friends and work to open-up about issues that need clarification. We can collaborate on solutions, and come up with ideas. Counselling often helps in dealing with problems that are bringing us down, and we feel holding us back from progressing in life.
My approach is influenced by person-centered theory using techniques from Solution Focused Therapy. I do not focus a great deal on emotions or get stuck in the past. Instead, I work on current behaviors, and where you want to go from here by breaking down what is holding you back.

No matter what we may be going through in our lives, we should be able to take the time to slow down and take care of our mental, spiritual, and emotional health. Finding a person who can help guide you through those challenges and give you a sense of safety and support is important as we traverse our healing journeys.

I strive to create a safe and supportive space that is rooted in empathy, authenticity, and collaboration where my clients will be heard, empowered, and understood. I hope to join you in your journey and thank you for taking the time to learn a little about me and how I may be able to support you.
