Therapy & Career Counselling: Empowering Your Life Journey in Vancouver and across BC
It’s possible to create the future you really want.
Support for adults navigating anxiety and depression, creating meaningful relationships, and navigating career direction.
Put simply: you feel stuck.
You're navigating the complexities of life—balancing school or work responsibilities with personal relationships—all while trying to figure out who you are and where you're headed. Each day brings the same nagging sense of unease as the road ahead seems filled with uncertainty and questions you're not sure how to answer.
Perhaps you're dealing with anxiety that makes everyday decisions feel overwhelming, or a persistent low mood that colours everything in shades of grey. You might be struggling with relationships that once felt nurturing but now feel draining, or a career path that no longer aligns with who you've become. You might have sought help before, only to find yourself back in familiar patterns, wondering if things can actually change.
Some feel the weight of cultural or family expectations creating tension between their own desires and what others want for them. Others are managing chronic pain or illness that constantly intrudes on their lives and threatens their sense of normalcy, or processing grief that has left them feeling disoriented.
You’re ready to explore what it means to live a fulfilling life.
You’re here because you want to understand yourself better, gain clarity, and find the confidence to make decisions that align with who you truly are.
Hello, I'm Erica

It's completely understandable that you're feeling overwhelmed. I'm here to encourage you to give yourself grace and understanding through all of this by breaking the daunting path ahead into smaller, more realistic steps. We'll do this together—one step at a time—so you can move forward with greater confidence, clarity, and direction.
Whatever you're going through—whether it's anxiety, depression, relationship struggles, grief, navigating cultural expectations or identity questions, chronic pain or illness, or career-related issues—my extensive background in counselling and career development equips me to support you.
I can help you address the interconnectedness of your mental health and career aspirations, by utilizing tailored strategies and therapeutic techniques. My holistic approach and career counselling expertise help you gain self-awareness, build coping skills, and make informed career choices aligned with your values and strengths, all while prioritizing your overall well-being.
I offer a space that is both compassionate and supportive, using evidence-based practices to help you navigate life's important decisions and challenges.

My Areas of Expertise
Career Development
Navigating your career path can be overwhelming. Whether you're seeking a new direction or facing challenges in your current role, I provide guidance and support to help you feel confident and empowered in finding a sense of purpose in your professional life.
Anxiety & Depression
Struggling with anxiety or depression is often isolating and exhausting. Together, we will explore strategies to manage these feelings, helping you reclaim your well-being and build resilience for a more balanced life.
Grief & Loss
Grief is deeply personal, and no two experiences are the same. Whether you're mourning a loved one, a relationship, or a future you once imagined, I provide a space where your feelings are honored. Together, we’ll navigate the waves of loss, process your emotions, and find ways to move forward at your own pace.
Relationships
Healthy relationships are part of a fulfilling life, but they’re also often complex and challenging. I work with individuals to improve communication, foster connection, and resolve conflicts, ensuring your relationships can thrive.
Chronic Illness & Pain
Living with chronic illness or pain can be isolating and exhausting. I provide support to help you build self-trust, set boundaries, and find ways to live meaningfully while managing your health. You don’t have to navigate this alone.
How it Works
Begin the journey toward meaningful change.
Take the first step by reaching out for a free 15-minute consultation where we can get to know each other, talk about what’s brought you here, and what you’re hoping to achieve from this experience. From there, we’ll create a plan that’s tailored to your unique needs and challenges. Then we’ll begin the work together, empowering you to become your best self and build the life that has, until now, seemed out of reach.
It’s possible to discover a sense of direction and purpose in your life, and it would be my privilege to serve as a guide to help you find it. I am based in Vancouver and offer convenient sessions online across BC.
