Hello, I’m Sam. I believe meaningful counselling begins with feeling genuinely heard and understood. When life becomes painful, overwhelming, or uncertain, having a place where you can speak openly and thoughtfully explore what you are experiencing can make an important difference. My goal is to provide a compassionate and respectful space where we can understand what has been difficult, recognize patterns that may be keeping you stuck, and work toward meaningful and lasting change.
I am a Registered Clinical Counsellor (RCC) and provide individual and couples counselling for concerns including trauma, PTSD and complex PTSD, anxiety, stress and burnout, depression, grief and loss, relationship and marital difficulties, affairs and infidelity, and significant life changes. I also provide EMDR therapy for individuals and couples, as well as Christian faith-based counselling for clients who would like their faith and spirituality integrated into the counselling process. My approach draws from EMDR, Emotionally Focused Couples Therapy (EFCT), the Gottman Method, Trauma-Focused CBT, and trauma-informed care, tailored to your individual needs and goals.
I offer secure and confidential online counselling for adults (19+) and couples throughout British Columbia, allowing you to access professional support from the privacy and comfort of your own space.
I also offer a complimentary 30-minute consultation for new clients. This is an opportunity to share what brings you to counselling, ask questions, learn more about how we can work together, and discuss what your next steps might look like.
Most major extended health insurance plans that provide coverage for RCCs are accepted. Direct billing is available for many eligible plans. Please contact to confirm if direct billing is available for your insurance plan. For other insurers, receipts are provided for reimbursement where eligible.
