Frequently Asked Questions

  • I mainly use Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), an evidence-based approach that focuses on creating a meaningful life, even in the presence of difficult thoughts or emotions. I occasionally pull from other modalities when it’s appropriate. If you are looking for a specific approach, feel free to ask me about it, and I will be honest about whether it can be integrated appropriately.

  • Many of my clients are young adults navigating life transitions, identity exploration, anxiety, depression, addiction, and relationship issues. Having said that, if you do not fit into that category, that’s okay! I offer a free 15-minute consultation, and if it’s not a good fit, I am happy to help you find alternative options.

  • Many extended benefits providers cover therapy services offered by Registered Social Workers (RSWs) in BC. However, I encourage you to check and confirm whether your specific plan offers coverage of RSWs.

  • I am able to direct bill a number of insurance providers in BC. However, some providers and plans don’t allow it. In this case, I can provide a receipt for you to be reimbursed by your provider. I accept payment by e-transfer, cash, or cheque.

  • That is completely okay — a strong therapeutic connection is essential. I will support you to explore your concerns, and if they’re not something we can address together, I can offer suggestions for a better alternative.
