Counselling
A calm supported space
My counselling space offers a calm and respectful place to talk openly, unpack what you are carrying, and build emotional skills that help life feel more manageable. Counselling can support you when you are navigating stress, anxiety, overwhelm, grief, early-stage trauma processing, or significant life transitions.
I support adults in Enderby, Salmon Arm, Vernon, and throughout the Okanagan Shuswap region. Sessions are available in person in Enderby and Kelowna, and online for clients across British Columbia and Canada.
What You Can Expect
Counselling with me is tailored to your needs and grounded in a client-centered approach. Each session is paced thoughtfully so that you can explore your experiences in a way that feels steady and supportive. Many clients describe feeling more regulated and connected to their inner resilience as our work unfolds.
You may find this approach helpful if you:
value a personalized and integrative style
want both goal-oriented tools, such as Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) and Solution-Focused Therapy (SFT), and living with confidence, guided by curiosity and compassion through Internal Family Systems (IFS)
appreciate a trauma-aware and client-centred practitioner who works within clinical supervision
believe in values-based healing that focuses on reconnecting with your inner strengths rather than fixing or pushing
How I Support You
Cognitive Behavioural Therapy
Cognitive Behavioural Therapy helps you identify how specific thoughts shape emotional reactions and behaviours. You will learn practical tools to reduce anxiety, improve emotional steadiness, and build healthier internal patterns.
Internal Family Systems
Internal Family Systems uses IFS to explore your many different inner parts that influence how you respond to stress and relationships. This approach is gentle and deeply supportive, helping you understand your protective, wounded parts, and your core Self, helping you experience insight, self-acceptance, stability and personal growth.
IFS is closely related to parts work therapy, which many clients find grounding and helpful in moving past personal barriers.
Solution Focused Therapy
Solution Focused Therapy helps guide you toward solution building rather than problem solving, shifting your focus from what’s not working to what can work. It supports you in creating a clear vision of the future you want and turning that vision into reality by using your own strengths, resources, and abilities. This approach empowers meaningful change by highlighting progress, possibilities, and the small steps that lead to big shifts.
Somatic and Regulation Techniques
Somatic regulation techniques help calm the nervous system and support emotional regulation. These practices may include mindful breathing, sensory awareness, grounding exercises, or gentle movement. They are especially helpful if you experience overwhelm, rumination, or difficulty settling your body during stressful moments.
Subconscious and Mind Body Approaches
Some clients choose to explore deeper inner awareness through methods connected to subconscious healing and mind-body connection therapy. These approaches help uncover long-standing patterns and strengthen the link between emotional, mental, and physical experiences.
If you are interested in working with the subconscious in a more focused way, you are welcome to explore my Clinical Hypnotherapy service, which I offer as a separate therapeutic option.
Emotional and Life Experiences I Help With
Emotional and Mental Wellbeing
Counselling can help if you are experiencing anxiety, persistent stress, emotional overwhelm, negative self-talk, or difficulty staying grounded.
Life Transitions
I support clients moving through grief, relationship shifts, career transitions, and periods of uncertainty.
Trauma Informed Support
I offer early-stage trauma work that focuses on understanding emotional and behavioral patterns and building regulation skills. Sessions may include grounding practices and nervous system awareness to help you feel safer and more connected in your body.
Why Clients Choose This Approach
My work blends tools from CBT and Solution Focused Therapy with the reflective inner exploration of IFS. This integrative approach helps clients experience both immediate relief and meaningful long-term change. Many people appreciate that sessions feel steady, supportive, and paced with care.
