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.

Low Level Laser Therapy
LLLT, also known as photobiomodulation or red light therapy, describes the use of low levels of near-infrared light to regenerate and optimize cellular function. PBM has been applied to treat concussion & traumatic brain injury (TBI), anxiety, depression, and PTSD symptoms, to reduce brain fog and enhance mental clarity, reduce inflammation, promote collagen production, and more!
My Approach
In my practice, I strive to create an atmosphere of warmth, compassion and safety. I work collaboratively with my clients, creating a plan together, that will help them reach their goals. I use talk therapy including modalities of Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, Mindfulness, Solution Focused Brief Therapy, Gottman and Emotion Focused Therapy. As well, I am a specialist in Biofeedback, Neurofeedback, EMDR and LLLT. 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

This combination of education and training gives me a unique, knowledgeable and holistic approach to both physical and mental health issues. I am an expert in Biofeedback and Neurofeedback and have 15 years of experience in this field. I love living in the Okanagan and especially enjoy paddleboarding, kayaking, cycling and hiking.
