Nice to Meet You!
Hi, I’m Dani!
My life has been shaped by several life transitions. I experienced personal loss at a formative age, moved from Ontario to BC 8 years ago, and built a career across multiple areas of healthcare. I know what it is like to face the uncertainty and vulnerability of building a new life in a new place, and I know it is not always easy to experience change. I approach my practice with the empathy of shared experience and the understanding that at times life can be really hard, and that’s okay.
What’s my Approach?
My approach to counselling is trauma-informed, anti-oppressive, queer-affirming, neurodiverse friendly, compassionate and warm. I believe that our past influences our present, however we don’t need to be prisoners of what happened to us. We can explore the experiences that have shaped you, the coping styles that you’ve collected along the way, and what continues to serve a helpful function in your life. Or we can address what might be getting in the way.
I enjoy bringing humour into the room, because I believe healing does not have to be serious. Yet, I am not afraid to challenge patterns that might be unhelpful so you can show up better for yourself, your relationships, and your community.
