Client Services, Low-Cost Therapy

Hi!

I am grateful to live, work and play within the traditional territory of the Ktunaxa Nation, colloquially known as Kimberley, BC. Although I’m on leave, I’m coming back! Read on to find out more about low-cost therapy with me.

I attended Vancouver Island University for Child and Youth Care and I have worked in mental health with children, youth and their families, and parents for over 15 years, supporting families to stay together or reunite and helping older youth without primary caregivers navigate some of life’s challenges.

I also bring the personal experience of being a mom in many roles. As a biological parent, stepparent and foster parent, I understand the many challenges that parents encounter raising their littles, and throughout the different stages of development from early days to high school.  I also recognize that I will always being learning when it comes to being a parent and this can be an isolating AND rewarding experience!

I started supporting 2SLGBTQIA+ community members and allies at Wildwood as Client Coordinator and the first point of contact since 2023 and I love to give folks a rewarding experience when asking for help. I have also completed Wildwood’s new counsellor training program and am able to offer low-cost general counselling services to youth and adults as a mental health therapist.

Areas that I support include:

  • Parenting

  • Adoption and Fostering

  • Anxiety and Depression

  • Executive Functioning

  • Navigating Emotions

  • Relationships and Boundaries

  • Parent/Teen Conflict

  • Identity & Self-Worth

  • Sensory Needs

If you’re a non-status Indigenous person, sessions with me are pay-what-you-can.

I am currently spending an extended period of time focusing on parenthood and I look forward to supporting you when I come back in September 2027. Please get in touch if you’d like to be notified when I return.
