What is Narrative Therapy?Short answer: Narrative therapy focuses on people's stories, values and their lived experiences.
Long answer: Narrative therapy seeks to be a respectful, non-blaming approach to counselling and community work which centers people as the experts in their own lives. Narrative therapy is a form of psychotherapy that seeks to help patients identify their values and the skills associated with them. It provides the patient with knowledge of their ability to live these values so they can effectively confront current and future problems. |

Frequently Asked Questions
How many sessions do I need?
It's really different for everyone, but you get to decide. More importantly, let's see if I'm a good fit. If it feels right after the first session, I recommend coming in weekly for the first few weeks.
Do you have evening and weekend availabilities?
Yes, I work evenings and weekends.
Do you work with children?
I work with pre-teens and teens (9 years old and up).
What is Integrative Somatic Therapy?
Formerly referred to as Mindfulness-Based Somatic Therapy (MBST), Integrative Somatic Therapy Practice (ISTP) ™ represents a holistic approach that amalgamates diverse therapeutic techniques to comprehensively support the well-being of individuals undergoing therapy. ISTP ™ incorporates elements from Yoga, Mindfulness Practice, Breathwork, Hands-on healing modalities, Somatic (body-based) interventions, and neuroscience, all strategically designed to amplify the body's inherent healing capabilities and rekindle a sense of hope. By focusing on the innate process of healing trauma, ISTP ™ facilitates the gentle release of stored trauma within the body, nurtures self-confidence, fosters greater emotional resilience, and equips individuals to engage with life's challenges with clarity, openness, and compassion.
Do you do direct billing?
I do direct billing for CVAP and FNHA clients.
Please submit a receipt to your insurance provider for reimbursement.
Does my insurance cover counselling?
Please check with your insurance provider. If they cover counselling with a Registered Clinical Counsellor (RCC) with BCACC, then you can submit a receipt to your insurance provider for reimbursement.
Are you accepting clients for couples therapy?
Not at the moment but I can refer you to someone else who is very good.
