EMDR Basic Training Membership
Alder Road Counselling
As a counsellor, I believe we all possess an inherent understanding of our needs, but past experiences can sometimes create barriers, making it difficult to access this knowledge. My aim is to support you in uncovering the strengths, tools, and awareness that already reside within you.
I understand the challenges of seeking help, trusting, and speaking up—I’ve been there. My own journey as a client has deeply shaped my desire to support others through similar challenges.
With over a decade of experience in the helping field, I’ve worked in various roles, supporting individuals facing challenges such as anxiety, depression, life transitions, trauma and grief. These experiences have solidified my belief in the intrinsic wisdom of each person’s journey and inspired my client-centred, collaborative approach.
In my practice, I strive to create a compassionate, non-judgmental space where clients feel safe navigating change and processing their experiences. Rooted in empathy, I incorporate evidence-based techniques tailored to each individual’s unique needs and preferences. This includes Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), a powerful therapeutic approach for addressing trauma and other emotional challenges.
My passion for Nature-Based Therapy further enriches my work, offering Walking Therapy for those drawn to the healing power of nature. Having grown up in Regina, Saskatchewan, and lived on the North Shore for over two decades, I bring a deep connection to both urban and natural landscapes into my practice.
In addition to my private practice, I work with the Canadian Mental Health Association North & West Vancouver Branch.
