Thoughtful, Compassionate Counselling—At Your Pace.

Virtual counselling & psychotherapy based in Vancouver, British Columbia.

“Musings…”

You carry thousands of thoughts each day. Some are clear and purposeful. Others arrive quietly—uninvited, intrusive, or lingering just beneath the surface.

In the midst of all this mental noise, you may find yourself musing—replaying the past, trying to stay present, or imagining what lies ahead.

Some thoughts fade into the background. Others stay. They loop. They return when you least expect them. They wait.

You might wonder if they are asking to be heard.

This is a space for you to bring those thoughts into the light—a space to slow down, to gently sort through what’s swirling, and to make meaning of your musings, together with me.

Registered Clinical Counsellor | Soulful Guide

Since I was a child, I’ve carried a quiet sensitivity — a way of feeling deeply into the emotional landscapes of those around me. It’s as though I was born with an invisible thread that gently tugs at the hearts of others, inviting me to notice, to attune, to understand.

Today, I honour that gift through my work as a counsellor in British Columbia — professionally recognized as a Registered Clinical Counsellor (RCC). My approach is intuitive, grounded, and heart-led. I believe healing isn’t about solving or changing who you are, but about creating space to listen deeply to the parts of you that have been quietly waiting.

In our time together, you won’t find judgment, pressure, or pretence. Instead, you’ll discover an environment where softness is strength, where your story is held with reverence, and where you’re gently supported as you step more fully into who you truly are.

Whether you’re navigating pain, longing for clarity, or simply seeking a space to exhale, I’m here to walk beside you — with curiosity, compassion, and deep respect.

✨ Come as you are.
Let’s begin this journey together — toward healing, wholeness, and home within yourself.

  • Anxiety

    You may feel constantly on edge, caught in cycles of worry, or overwhelmed by thoughts that won’t settle. Anxiety can show up in the body, emotions, and mind—sometimes quietly, sometimes all at once. In therapy, we explore what your anxiety is trying to protect you from, and gently develop ways to soothe your nervous system and lessen its hold on your daily life.

  • Depression

    Depression can feel like moving through life with heaviness—low energy, sadness, or a loss of interest in things that once mattered. You might notice changes in motivation, self-worth, or your ability to get through the day. Through counselling, we work together to understand what’s beneath the weight and identify small, meaningful shifts that can help restore connection, vitality, and hope.

  • Trauma

    Trauma can stem from a single distressing event or from experiences that unfolded over time. Its effects may linger in the body and nervous system long after the event has passed. Using a compassionate, non-judgmental, and carefully paced approach, therapy offers a safe space to process stored emotions, rebuild a sense of safety, and support gentle healing at a pace that feels right for you.

  • Life Purpose

    At certain points in life, you may feel stuck, uncertain, or disconnected from your sense of direction. These moments often arise during transitions—changes in relationships, career, family roles, or deeper self-reflection. Through an existential lens, counselling supports you in clarifying your values, making sense of uncertainty, and reconnecting with what feels meaningful and authentic to you.

  • Cultural Identity

    Your cultural background plays an important role in shaping how you see yourself and relate to others. You may be navigating questions of belonging, intergenerational expectations, cultural transitions, or feeling caught between different worlds. Counselling offers a reflective space to explore these experiences, honour your story, and integrate the many parts of your identity in a way that feels grounding, affirming, and true to you.

  • Relational Challenges

    You may notice patterns of disconnection, conflict, irritability, or relationships that feel short-lived or unfulfilling. These experiences often reflect deeper emotional needs or past relational wounds. In counselling, we explore how you relate to others and to yourself, and develop healthier, more attuned ways of building trust, communication, and meaningful connection.

As a BIPOC counsellor, I am committed to anti-oppressive values in my practice. I welcome individuals of all cultures, ethnicities, faiths and those who identify as LGBTQIA2S+. I strive to disrupt the hierarchical power structures inside and outside the therapeutic setting and to be ethical, responsible and accountable to all the communities I serve. My approach is non-pathologizing and honours the dignity of the BIPOC community and our intersections.
