New Client Consultation

I offer a no-obligation, free 15-minute initial phone consultation. You can use this consultation to talk about what you’re looking to address, ask questions about how counselling can help you, and what to expect from the process. From there, we can schedule our first session. Please call 604-774-6900 at the time of your appointment.


Online Counselling via Video

Access quality therapy from the comfort and privacy of your home anywhere in British Columbia. Online therapy is convenient, accessible, and time-efficient. While the format may be different, research shows online therapy can be just as effective as in-person counselling.
