Welcome to A Good Place
Solution-based mental health therapy. Because you want real changes.
Do you want a therapist who speaks to you like a human being, not a textbook? Do you need to heal from pain, and find some joy and hope? Are you looking for someone who gives you feedback, instead of just asking, “and how does that make you feel?” Believe me, I get it.
I’m a trauma-informed counsellor, with a holistic, informal approach, and a tendency to swear occasionally. I’m an RTC (Registered Therapeutic Counsellor), licensed through the Association of Cooperative Counsellors of Canada.
I’ve also been a certified Life Coach since 2014, and have a background of 20+ years working in the Arts.
Therapy sessions by Zoom or phone. I’m based in Vancouver, but you can have virtual appointments wherever you are.
_________________________________
In your appointments with me, we work on your obstacles and fears, but we also find healthy, realistic choices for you to improve the quality of your life. When you want kind, honest, professional counselling that’s a genuine conversation, I’m a good fit for you.
My practice combines traditional therapy with certified coaching methods. You’re given real guidance and suggestions, instead of being asked to figure it all out for yourself. I’m here to listen and support you. I’m also here to hand you a flashlight, instead of leaving you to find your own way in the dark.
_________________________________
My counselling is mainly ‘person-centered’ and ‘solution-focused’. I talk with you, not at you. Your appointments might include action-based and/or somatic therapy. These can help you break patterns, build new habits, feel safe in your body, and feel more in control of your responses.
I help you with issues like anxiety, depression, imposter syndrome, grief, burnout, creative blocks, past trauma, recovering from narcissistic abuse, boundary setting, healthy communication, hyper-independence, self-esteem, and more.
Choosing me as your therapist, means you’re truly seen, really heard, and completely accepted. For all that you are, and all that you want to become.
You deserve to be at A Good Place.
