ABOUT CHANTAL

Hi, I’m Chantal — I'm glad you are here. I bring over 18 years of experience in the human services field, starting as a social worker and now as a therapist. I am passionate about supporting youth, adults, and couples from diverse cultural backgrounds, especially those who have experienced trauma or who are navigating anxiety, depression, PTSD, grief and loss, relationship challenges, or complex family dynamics. My work has taken me across rural communities in northern BC, Asia, and Africa, giving me a broad perspective on the challenges people face and the resilience they possess.

​

At the heart of my approach is creating a safe, trusting space where clients feel heard, seen, and supported. I believe well-being is holistic, connecting mind, body, and heart, and I work trauma-informed to help you access your strengths and resources. Together, we identify strategies and skills that allow you to feel better, grow, and transform, so you can move forward with greater confidence and resilience.

Whether you’re navigating personal challenges, relationship difficulties, or the lasting effects of trauma, I am here to help you on your journey toward healing and growth, helping you reconnect with your strengths and embrace the life you want to create.
