Individual Counselling
Counselling offers a space for you to be heard and your story to be acknowledged in a compassionate way. Counsellors hold space for your story, suggest strategies for resolving symptoms, and provide guidance as you move toward personal growth and healing. Individual counselling can be in-person or online.

Brain Mapping/ Neurofeedback
A brain map is a 21 channel Electroencephalogram (EEG) that assesses your unique brain wave patterns. A 12 page report is generated describing the strengths and challenges of your brain.
Low Energy Neurofeedback System (LENS) is a form of direct neurofeedback that allows the brain to re-set itself for optimal performance.

EMDR
Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) is an extensively researched approach proven effective for the treatment of trauma and PTSD, anxiety, compulsive behaviours, substance use, phobias, complex grief, and many other mental health problems. EMDR can be in-person or online.

ADHD Testing
If you suspect you may have ADHD, taking an Integrated Audio Visual ADHD Test can determine with 92% accuracy whether you have ADHD or not.
This test can be taken in the office or remotely from the comfort of your home.
My Approach
In my practice, I strive to create an atmosphere of warmth, compassion and safety. I will work collaboratively with my you, creating a plan together, that will help you reach your goals. I use talk therapy including modalities of Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, Mindfulness and Solution Focused Brief Therapy. As well, I specialize in EMDR, Biofeedback and Neurofeedback. I describe my practice as, "Counselling PLUS" because you can receive talk therapy, but also access a range of other powerful therapies to bring about change, growth and healing more quickly.
About me
I am a Registered Nurse as well as a Registered Clinical Counsellor. I have worked as a nurse for many years and then went on to receive my Masters in Counselling. I have been working in private practice for 16 years. This combination of education and experience gives me a unique and holistic approach-paying attention to both physical and mental health issues. I am a specialist in Biofeedback and Neurofeedback and have a passion for bringing about healing and change through talk therapy, but also through training the breath, the body and the brain into healthier, more adaptive patterns. I love living in the Okanagan and especially enjoy cycling, hiking and cross country skiing.
