I work exclusively by phone. My experience has been it allows for better focus and concentration than video or even in-person. You can enjoy our time together from the comfort of your own home. New clients are welcome.

Narrative Therapy

The essence of spiritual direction is to enter into a dialogue with the intention of letting your spirit reveal to you the story you are living that is your life. Simply stated, you have one life with many chapters. Spirit is what you sense as your energy. Soul is your mystical core and carries your infinite spirit.

The essence of spiritual direction is to enter into a dialogue with the intention of letting your spirit reveal to you the story you are living that is your life. Simply stated, you have one life with many chapters. Spirit is what you sense as your energy. Soul is your mystical core and carries your infinite spirit. You find your way home to spirit through your soul as it calls into your life what it requires you to encounter and learn through. Nothing has ever gone wrong in this divine orchestration. Your soul is wired to speak truth to you. Your spirit is designed to guide you. Your system is intended to be in balance. Learning to command your spirit in the field of human experience by the principle of truth and the law of love generates true freedom. For spiritual discovery is about wholeness. The agreement to live a human life is the promise to remember the truth, power, and beauty of who you are and it is the journey of all humankind.

As an autoethnographic writer, feminist-transpersonal scholar and counselling practitioner, I work in a field of love to bring you home to yourself – the self who is sovereign, wise and inviting you to grow in wonder.

The fragmentation of humanity based on the idea we are separate from the Source of All Life will only be transcended from within an individual’s consciousness. Therefore the work of the world is inner work. To this end, I am a student of my own life for the benefit of all.

When the grace of counsel works through me, I mentor your soul. The highest form of healing unfolds when a practitioner sees the WHOLE of you and this is my spiritual modality of therapy. I serve to facilitate the emergence of wisdom from within you so you may live fully empowered and free. You may consider our time together as soul therapy. And I rely on the language of your own life story to guide us rather than expert knowledge or professional language of the clinician.

Long before I enjoyed the privilege of working with teams of outstanding practitioners at Crossroads Clinics in Cambie Village and Sage Integrated Health in the heart of Kitsilano, I attracted an international clientele. Now I run my own online practice so that both you and me can be location independent!

With an academic background in creative writing, women’s studies and psychology, and a MA in Applied Communication as an autoethnographer, I’m a Registered Professional Counsellor and Master Practitioner in Clinical Counselling with the Canadian Professional Counselling Association. I’m also a Certified Executive Coach with the International Coach Federation and a Creativity Coach under the tutelage of Eric Maisel. For those clients applying for insurance eligibility, my credentials are recognized as:

  1. Counsellor in all provinces and territories.

  2. Clinical Counsellor in all provinces and territories, except Ontario.

  3. Psychotherapist in all provinces and territories, except Ontario.

  4. Counselling Therapist in all provinces and territories, except regulated provinces.

In years past, I have interned students for Sofia University’s coaching program as well as Royal Roads University’s executive coaching program and I was an Associate Coach at the University of British Columbia. I’m certified in transpersonal psychology and through the Vancouver School for Narrative Therapy, I’ve enjoyed advanced narrative practice training. In my private practice, I’ve designed and taught two programs: Therapeutic Writes and LOVE 101. I am a devoted Student of the Guides through the channelled teachings of Paul Selig. I draw on my direct experience with Dr. Joe Dispenza’s research and teachings as well as my decades of study with the Caroline Myss Educational Institute. I work in long traditions of wise mentors whose work continues to foster my own: Carl Jung, Esther Harding, Marie-Louise von Franz, Helen M. Luke, Barbara Hannah, Marion Woodman and Thomas Moore. Put simply, I’m a passionate humanist driven to engage and investigate the mystery of life while learning to express my deep intuition of order and my desire to help with living.

I work with the quantum model of reality which is about causing an effect by changing our internal state. I have a unique talent. I’m able to tune into an individual and reveal those aspects of identity that are blocked by fear. I employ an extensive comprehension of feminine and masculine energies in the human psyche, and I’m able to read the story living you. In essence, I help you learn how to overcome the emotional self, change your energy, maintain balance in times of great change, and ultimately generate new life experience in love and wisdom.

All sessions require only one thing — that you be open and willing to allow new knowledge into your cognitive awareness. This new knowledge will inspire your intention to become a master student of life which means you will, in short order, be willing to take full responsibility for your perception of life knowing that it is determining your experience.

What I know for sure is this: in every conversation I’m privileged to have with the people who entrust me with their story, there is always a moment — one particular moment — that feels miraculous. An insight is received. A direction is revealed. Imagination is sparked. And something is healed.

And I also know that every act of healing is an act of service for all beings across and beyond time.

If you want to go your individual way it is the way you make for yourself, which is never prescribed, which you do not know in advance, and which simply comes into being of itself when you put one foot in front of the other. If you always do the next thing that needs to be done, you will go most safely and surefootedly along the path prescribed by your unconscious.

— Carl G. Jung

The path to self-becoming is unique and must be found by the inidividual. The soul, and not paternal authority is the guide.

— Alfred Ribi

There is, in truth, no such thing as a collective progress that does not spring from individual growth.
