Introduction:

I am a Registered Clinical Counsellor and trained Collaborative Divorce Coach in British Columbia. I support individuals and families who want to move through separation and divorce with clarity, dignity, and as little conflict as possible. My work is grounded in the belief that even in the most painful transitions, people have an inner capacity for resilience, thoughtfulness, and growth.

Divorce can feel overwhelming, emotionally charged, and disorienting. As a collaborative divorce coach, I help clients slow the process down, regulate intense emotions, and stay grounded in their values while navigating complex decisions. My role is to support you in communicating more effectively, advocating for your needs, and making thoughtful, future-focused choices — especially when the stakes feel high.

My background as a trauma-informed therapist informs my work in the collaborative process. I draw from approaches such as EMDR, Internal Family Systems (IFS), Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT), somatic and mindfulness-based practices, and DBT-informed skills to help clients manage distress, reduce reactivity, and feel more confident in difficult conversations.

I approach this work with warmth, neutrality, and respect for both parties. Whether you are feeling grief, anger, fear, or uncertainty, I aim to create a steady, supportive space where you can feel understood and empowered to move forward with integrity and care.
