Hello, I’m Nadia (she/her), welcome! Reaching out for therapy is a courageous first step. This process won’t always be easy, but I am here to support you. I come to the counselling profession after a decade of working as a registered nurse in hospital settings as well as in community outreach. I have a wealth of experience in dealing with people experiencing trauma and difficult life changes.
Individuals
I believe that you are the expert in your own life. I support individuals in gaining clarity, building confidence, and making empowered decisions aligned with their values. Through a collaborative and compassionate approach, I help clients recognize their strengths and move toward meaningful, self-directed change. I acknowledge that we do not exist in isolation, that we are the product of a complex web of relationships. As we work collaboratively to find a path forward, we honor your relationships with family, partners, friends, and your chosen communities.
Relationships
I help couples and partners deepen intimacy and reconnect by creating a safe space to strengthen communication, rebuild trust, and better understand one another’s needs. Using Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT), I support partners in recognizing patterns, expressing deeper emotions, and building a more secure, connected relationship.
Approach
My counselling style is non-shaming, caring, affirming, and strengths-based; my communication style is transparent and direct. My therapeutic approach is a combination of talk therapy, emotion- focused, and somatic approaches. I also draw from attachment theory emphasizing the lasting impact that early attachment relationships have on how individuals approach romantic relationships, friendships, and parenting relationships as adults.
Outside of Work
In my everyday life I lovingly hold the roles of auntie, big sister, daughter, loyal friend, wife, and mother. I am an extroverted introvert who feels recharged and revitalized after spending quality time outdoors and with loved ones.

I am a Registered Massage Therapist, certified with CCHPBC, and I find great fulfillment in working with clients of all ages and backgrounds. My practice includes a variety of techniques, such as Swedish massage, trigger-point release, stretching, and joint mobilizations, with a special focus on the face, TMJ, scalp, and neck. By addressing these areas, I aim to help my clients relieve headache tension, improve jaw function, and reduce stress and anxiety, supporting their overall well-being.
When I’m not practicing massage, you can often find me running, skiing, fishing, or spending quality time with friends.
As a proud member of the queer community, I deeply understand the importance of creating a safe, inclusive, and welcoming space for everyone. Diversity and inclusion are at the heart of my practice, and I strive to foster a supportive environment where everyone feels valued and cared for.
I am excited to contribute to the clinic’s continued success and to make a meaningful, positive difference in the lives of those I have the privilege to serve.
