and Doula Services
Witnessing You Through Life’s Greatest Transition
The road to parenthood changes you, and you shouldn't have to walk it alone. I'm a Registered Clinical Counsellor (BCACC) and birth doula who adores serving mothers and parents through fertility, pregnancy, birth, and postpartum.
I offer virtual counselling for individuals 19+ and couples anywhere in British Columbia, with evening and Sunday sessions that fit around work, naps, and bedtime. Whether you're facing fertility struggles, anxiety in pregnancy, a difficult birth, or the early months with a new baby, this is a warm space to be heard without judgment. Or maybe you are later in parenthood, facing unexpected challenges, and need support navigating your own emotions. You are not alone.
Sessions are covered by most extended health plans that include RCCs. My sessions are done via the Jane App platform, and receipts are provided after each session.
I also offer Birth Doula Packages for expecting families, informed by my work in perinatal mental health, and host monthly Birth Circles for anyone navigating conception, pregnancy, birth, postpartum, motherhood, or birth work.
Welcome. Your village starts here.

My Approach
-
An Integrated Approach
I draw from trauma informed, relational, somatic, attachment and compassion based approaches to meet each person where they are. My approach is flexible and responsive, designed to support emotional regulation, self-expression, and connection—both within the person and in their relationships. I honor the wisdom of the body, the power of story, and the safety of playfulness in helping people heal and grow.
-
Rooted In Relationships
At the heart of my work is a deep belief that people thrive when they feel seen, safe, and supported. Together we will build a therapeutic relationship that is secure enough for you to explore topics that may feel risky, exposing, shameful, or challenging.
-
Healing Happens in Community
I believe we’re not meant to do this alone. So much of our healing happens in safe, supportive relationships—and therapy can be one of those, but not the only one. I help clients explore and strengthen their sense of belonging, whether that means reconnecting with trusted supports or building new ones.
As part of this commitment, I offer sliding scale birth circles that center shared experience, mutual care, and being witnesses in the great transformation of motherhood.
