About me

Kalhwá7aľap (hello). I am an Indigenous mental health clinician and I hold a Bachelor of Music degree, Bachelor of Education degree, Master of Counselling degree, and I am a registered clinical counsellor with the British Columbia Association of Clinical Counsellors. Registration #21626. I offer counselling that is holistic, strength-based, person-centered and community-focused. My background in education and community service work has contributed to a diverse skill set that supports a range of both individual and group challenges: anxiety, depression, addiction, grief, gender, sexuality, trauma, and relationship concerns. I utilize culturally safe and informed therapeutic techniques to help uncover the courage that resides within. We all hold gifts that when discovered (or uncovered) have the ability to nourish our root system and help us heal from past and current challenges. By entering into a counselling relationship in a trauma-informed, respectful way, we will work together to develop insight, skills, and holistic balance.
