Ready for change?
I can help.
I founded Willow Tree Counselling after over a decade of work in public practice. At my downtown Vancouver counselling and psychotherapy office, I strive to cultivate a therapy space that is safe for all genders, races, cultures, bodies, neurotypes, sexual orientations, family constellations and relationships.
I am told that because of my open nature and kind, gentle way with people, clients trust that I can help without judgment. Listening to my clients’ personal stories is both an honour and a privilege; feeling heard and understood is often the first significant step towards change.
A welcoming, diverse & vibrant practice where people come as they are and I meet people where they’re at.
My counselling and psychotherapy practice is focused primarily on individual counselling. I am currently not accepting new clients for family and couples counselling.
Sorry, I do not have immediate availability for accepting new clients and I am not currently adding to my waiting list. Previous clients, please be in touch.
