Credentials and Scope of Practice 

Professional Credentials & Professional Standing

I am a Registered Professional Counsellor-Provisional (RPC-P) with the Canadian Professional Counsellors Association and a Counselling Practitioner Candidate with the Canadian College of Professional Counselling Practitioners. I provide professional counselling support to adults addressing, grief and loss, life transitions, relationship concerns, caregiving responsibilities, and personal growth, with specialized experience supporting individuals navigating breast cancer recovery, chronic illness, physical disabilities, and any other health related support.

​

As an RPC-Provisional and CCPCPR-Candidate, I practice under the clinical supervision of an experienced senior counsellor. Regular supervision is an integral part of my professional practice, supporting ongoing professional development, ethical care, and adherence to established standards of client confidentiality and professional responsibility.

My Approach

My work is centered on helping clients develop practical coping strategies, strengthen emotional regulation, and build resilience and clarity in everyday life. 

 

I believe counselling begins with feeling truly heard. My approach is warm, compassionate, and collaborative. I take the time to understand your story, what you have been carrying, and what matters most to you—without judgment or the expectation that you need to have everything figured out.

​

Together, we will explore your experiences, recognize the strengths you already carry, and find practical ways to navigate challenges with greater clarity and confidence. My goal is to offer a supportive space where you can feel understood, reconnect with yourself, and move forward at your own pace.

Scope of Practice

My scope of practice is limited to mental health counselling services. I do not provide medical or psychiatric services, including diagnosis of mental health disorders, prescription or management of medication, or crisis or emergency intervention.

 What I Can Help With

In our work together, I can support you with challenges such as:

​

  • Feeling overwhelmed, stressed, or stretched too thin

  • Navigating worry, anxiety, and the thoughts that can feel difficult to quiet

  • Adjusting to life changes and finding your footing during new seasons of life

  • Understanding and managing emotions in a way that feels more balanced

  • Relationship concerns, communication challenges, and personal boundaries

  • Building confidence, resilience, and practical ways to cope with everyday challenges

  • Developing a better understanding of your thoughts, emotions, and responses to stress

​

My approach is supportive, collaborative, and grounded in the belief that you already carry strengths and resources within you. Together, we will work toward greater clarity, confidence, and a stronger sense of connection with yourself.

What My Services Are Not

  • I do not diagnose mental health conditions

  • I do not provide medical or psychiatric treatment

  • I do not replace care from psychologists, physicians, or psychiatrists

  • I do not provide psychotherapy as defined under regulated health professions

 

If your needs fall outside my scope, I will help connect you with appropriate supports or services.

What You Can Expect

Our sessions will be a space for conversation, reflection, and support as we explore what is bringing you here.

 

Together, we may focus on:

​

  • Understanding your experiences and what you are carrying

  • Exploring thoughts, emotions, and patterns that may be impacting your well-being

  • Developing practical tools and strategies to navigate everyday challenges

  • Building confidence in managing stress, emotions, and life transitions

  • Identifying personal strengths, values, and steps toward meaningful change

​

Important to Know

If you are experiencing significant mental health concerns, complex trauma, or needs requiring clinical treatment, I may recommend additional support from a regulated healthcare provider.
