Our Vancouver Team

Healing often begins with presence. With the quiet courage to sit beside someone in their pain, uncertainty, or transformation. As a therapist, I am guided by the belief that each person carries the capacity for wholeness, even in the aftermath of profound hardship. I do not see people as problems to be solved, but as whole beings moving through life’s layered seasons in search of authenticity.

My background in the medical field has given me experience supporting individuals and families navigating early childhood intervention, illness, trauma, and systemic barriers to care. These moments have shown me that therapy is sacred work; practice of tending to the human spirit with care and reverence.

Grounded in the biopsychosocial model, I draw on evidence-based practices such as CBT, ACT, and EFT, while integrating mindfulness, somatic awareness, and narrative approaches. My goal is to create a space that honors both structure and softness, personalized treatment plans, and with the patience to let the work unfold at its own pace.

Healing is not linear; it is relational. It unfolds in safe spaces, in small, brave steps, and in the experience of being truly seen and heard.

Above all, I remain a student of the human experience and a witness to resilience, to the stories we carry, and to the clarity that can arise when we are met with compassion and radical acceptance

I graduated from University of Phoenix in 2025 with a Master’s in Clinical Mental Health Counseling and have been working in the field since 2021. I have a background in music, art, and a degree in photography and love to incorporate expressive arts into sessions when possible. I believe that exploring creativity can aid self expression and help move through transitions in life.

My focus is helping teens and adults navigate difficult emotions and transitions in life. I believe the client knows themselves best, and I am here to walk alongside and provide a calm, collaborative, and judgment-free space for them to thrive. My approach is personalized and I integrate a variety of modalities to match your unique needs, fostering empowerment and autonomy.

Outside of work, I enjoy reading, cooking, spending time with friends, and exploring outside as much as possible with my husband and two young sons.

I am a graduate of Grand Canyon University with a Master’s Degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling. I am dedicated to supporting individuals and couples on their mental health journey with empathy, understanding, and a client-centered approach.

My focus is on helping children/teens/adults/couples, navigate life transitions, manage the everyday stresses of parenting, careers and relationships along with building self-compassion and confidence while learning the strengths and value they bring. I hope to meet client’s where they are and work on what is most important to them.

I especially enjoy helping others to improve communication and find deeper connections with the world around them. I have a belief that feeling good both mentally and physically plays a huge role in overall happiness and take a holistic approach to counseling that integrates the mind and body, helping people to find balance, healing, and personal growth.

In addition counseling, I am certified in yoga and integrative health and nutrition, which allows me to incorporate a variety of lifestyle practices into my work as tools for overall well-being and emotional regulation. I value the role of creativity and art as powerful avenues for self-expression and healing, and love to integrate creative techniques into sessions.

I hold a Bachelor’s Degree in Family and Consumer Science from the University of Idaho, and this has given me a strong foundation in understanding relationships, emotional development, and the importance of overall wellness. Outside of counseling, I have a love for movement, and you can usually find me enjoying activities like snowboarding and paddleboarding, along with finding inspiration through creative outlets like cooking or curling up with a good book.

I look forward to continuing my journey as a counselor and supporting clients in discovering their inner strengths and creating meaningful change for their lives.

Areas of Focus:

• Anxiety, Depression, Trauma, OCD (with ERP treatment), Eating Disorders, Behavioral Issues, Codependency, Couples Counseling, Coping Skills, Self Esteem, and Post Traumatic Stress.

Throughout my life, I have been deeply interested in understanding people and the connections that shape our lives. That interest ultimately led me to pursue a career in counseling.

I believe healing begins in an environment where people feel genuinely seen, heard, and understood. My approach is rooted in compassion, collaboration, and trauma-informed care, with the belief that healing happens through authentic connection. My goal is to create a safe, supportive space where clients can explore life’s challenges, build resilience, and create meaningful, lasting change. I strive to walk alongside each client as they reclaim their sense of resilience, self-compassion, and hope.

I work with teens and adults navigating trauma, attachment challenges, self-esteem struggles, and emotional regulation difficulties. I believe every person carries resilience within them, and my role as a counselor is to help clients uncover that inner strength and integrate it into their daily lives. I often use evidence-based approaches, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectal Behavioral Therapy (DBT), Polyvagal Therapy, Play Therapy, and Gottman training, to support growth, self-discovery, and lasting change.

Outside of counseling, I have a deep love for animals and enjoy rescuing lost pets. Sharing my home (and heart) with my own pets continually reminds me of the power of connection, comfort, and unconditional love. I also enjoy traveling, exploring new places, and continuing to expand my knowledge of psychology.

Areas of Focus:

• Ages 10-75
• Anxiety, Depression, Low Self Esteem, PTSD, Complex Trauma, Self Harm, Suicidal Ideation, Attachment Struggles, and ADHD.

I am a graduate student at the University of the Cumberlands, working towards my Master’s Degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling. I am passionate about supporting individuals on their healing journey, building the skills needed to walk alongside clients with compassion, curiosity, and respect.

My interest in mental health is rooted in a deep desire to help people feel understood, empowered, and capable of creating meaningful change in their lives. I am especially drawn to working with children, teens, and adults who are navigating anxiety, OCD, depression, trauma, self-esteem concerns, grief, and life transitions. I believe that every person carries inner resilience, and my role as a counselor is to help clients connect with their strengths and move toward growth at a pace that feels safe. I also work with couples and families having been Level 1 Gottman trained.

I value a holistic and integrative approach, drawing from mindfulness, strength-based support, exposure therapy (ERP), cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), play therapy, for the kiddos, and collaborative, person-centered care. I believe in the importance of the mind-body connection and, when helpful, enjoy incorporating grounding and nature-based practices to support emotional healing and balance.

Outside of counseling, I find peace and inspiration in nature, mindfulness practices, and creative outlets. These practices remind me of the importance of slowing down, reconnecting with ourselves, and creating space for healing. You can usually find me somewhere in nature, enjoying time with my 4 children, at the gym, or reading.

I look forward to walking alongside each client as they build resilience, self-compassion, and hope.

I am a graduate student at Walden University working toward my Master’s Degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling. I earned my undergraduate degree in Psychology and Elementary Education from Washington State University, where I found my passion for working with all age groups and working to help them become better versions of themselves.

I am particularly drawn towards working children/teens/adults dealing with depression, anxiety, grief and loss, trauma, self-esteem, life transitions and coping skills. I believe that it is my job to meet you where you are at in your journey. I aspire to create a space that is supportive and nonjudgmental where the client feels valued, empowered, and heard. I also work with couples and families having been Level 2 Gottman trained.

I believe that you know yourself and your needs best and that I am here to help you in your walk-through life the best way I can. Therapy with me will look like a collaborative process where we work together to identify issues, explore feelings, and create goals to create a change. I often use approaches such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) and coping skills training to support my clients in their journey of growth and healing.

Outside of counseling, I practice yoga and spend time with my husband and son. You can also find me snuggled up on the couch reading a good book, as I am an avid reader.

Hi, I’m Izzy! I’m currently pursuing my Master’s degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling at Walden University and have over 10 years of experience working with children, teens, and families through early childhood education and leadership roles. Building strong relationships and helping people feel supported has always been a huge part of who I am, and I’m passionate about creating spaces where clients feel comfortable showing up exactly as they are.

My counseling style is warm, authentic, trauma-informed, and collaborative. I believe therapy should feel like a safe, supportive, and judgment-free space where clients can feel heard, understood, and empowered. I value genuine connection, honesty, and even a little humor when it fits because healing doesn’t always have to feel so heavy all the time.

My clinical interests include anxiety, depression, trauma, PTSD, mood disorders, self-esteem, emotional regulation, life transitions, and working with children, adolescents, and young adults. I especially enjoy helping clients build confidence, strengthen coping skills, and recognize their own resilience and growth.

I also deeply value culturally responsive and inclusive care and believe every person deserves to feel seen, respected, and supported throughout their counseling journey.

Outside of counseling, you can usually find me reading, spending time with my husband and pets, listening to music, and enjoying sunny days near the water whenever I can.

Areas of Focus:

• Ages 3+
• Depression, Anxiety, Mood Disorders, Trauma, PTSD Self-Esteem, Emotional Regulation, Life Transitions, CBT, DBT, OCD with ERP, Mindfulness, Motivational Interviewing, Play Therapy, and Coping Skills.

Hello, I’m Mason! I’m a graduate student working toward my master’s degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling at the University of the Cumberlands. After a decade of working in the engineering field, and a few years volunteering in crisis counseling roles, a steady pull toward people, connection, and service led me to adjust career course.

I’m especially drawn toward working with adults/teens navigating anxiety, depression, relationship struggles, life transitions, burnout, chronic pain, grief, and more. Whatever shape you’re arriving in, we’ll meet it together. My hope is to offer you a space that leaves you feeling seen, accepted, rooted for, and safe enough to be yourself, since that’s where growth often begins.

My counseling style is warm, collaborative, and down-to-earth. I trust that you are your own best guide, while also staying ready to offer direction and gentle challenge when it counts. I can’t promise to erase all of life’s painful thoughts and feelings. However, together we can explore kinder and more flexible ways of relating to them, so that they take up less room, and create a wider opening for choice. I count it a privilege to walk alongside folks as they use that opening to build a life around what matters most to them. Through it all, I try to bring a touch of lightheartedness to balance the sometimes-heavy work of healing.

Outside of work and study, you’ll likely find me romping around the woods camping, hiking, climbing, or exploring new places. I also love to recharge by connecting with friends/community over local music and movement

Areas of Focus:

• Ages 13+
