Hi, I’m Angela

I have spent most of my life living in the Yukon, and my path to becoming a therapist has been anything but linear. Before entering the counselling field, I spent nearly two decades working in health care after completing my Bachelor of Science in Nursing at the University of Alberta. My nursing career has taken me through long-term care, psychiatric nursing, palliative care, and many of the complicated spaces where physical health, emotional wellbeing, relationships, and life experience intersect.

In 2020, I returned to university to complete my Master’s in Counselling Psychology. Since beginning my work as a therapist, I have continued to pursue additional training in areas that particularly interest me, including Pain Reprocessing Therapy, polyvagal theory and somatic approaches, Gottman Level One, and education related to narcissistic abuse and coercive relationship dynamics.

My approach to therapy is eclectic and individualized rather than one-size-fits-all. I draw from narrative therapy, Internal Family Systems-informed concepts, somatic awareness, relational approaches, and other evidence-based practices depending on the needs of the person sitting across from me.

Most importantly, I believe people are the experts on their own lives. My role is not to tell you who you are or what your life should look like. It is to offer a thoughtful, compassionate space where we can become curious about your experiences, recognize patterns that may no longer serve you, build new skills, and help you move toward a life that feels increasingly like your own.

Therapeutic Style

My approach is trauma-informed, compassionate, and grounded in both clinical training and lived experience.

I work with people navigating relationship stress, trauma, identity, neurodivergence, life transitions, and emotionally complex and high-control dynamics. Together, we can explore patterns without judgement, rebuild self-trust, and create greater clarity about what you desire.
