About Val

Are you or your child feeling overwhelmed, anxious, exhausted, or simply stuck? Perhaps the days feel heavier than they used to, or you're watching your child struggle and aren't sure how to help. You may want to feel more settled, more understood, more like yourself again—but right now that can feel out of reach. Taking the first step toward counselling can be difficult, and you don't have to have everything figured out before reaching out. We can take things one step at a time, together. I believe that feeling truly seen, heard, and understood can be an important part of creating change. I offer a warm, compassionate, and nonjudgmental space where you or your child can feel safe to show up just as you are. I also believe there is room for lightness, and even a little humour, along the way. Together, we can begin to make sense of what you're experiencing and find a path forward that feels manageable. My approach is client-centered and emotion-focused. I draw from Person-Centred Therapy, Emotion-Focused Therapy (EFT), and Art Therapy to help you or your child better understand and navigate difficult emotions, recognize patterns that may no longer be helpful, and develop tools that support lasting growth. My background as an elementary school teacher and art therapist has taught me that there is no single approach that works for everyone, and I am committed to getting to know you and finding the approach that feels right for you. Finding the right fit in a counsellor matters. You deserve a space where your experiences are heard, your emotions are valid, and you feel supported to grow at your own pace. I am currently a Registered Psychotherapy (Qualifying) practicing under clinical supervision of Rachael Riethman. If you're considering therapy or have questions about whether we might be a good fit, I welcome you to reach out to book a free 15-minute virtual consultation.
