Hi, I’m Elise, and I’m so glad you’re here to explore counselling as part of your journey. I am a Registered Clinical Counsellor (#22540) with the BC Association of Clinical Counsellors and hold a Masters in Counselling from City University of Seattle.

I take a client-centred, attachment-informed, and collaborative approach to counselling. I primarily work with adults navigating a variety of life challenges, including anxiety, depression, stress management, relationship difficulties, life transitions, and personal or identity exploration.

As a biracial woman, I draw on my own lived experience of navigating bicultural identity to foster empathy and understanding. This helps me support clients exploring their own sense of identity, belonging, and cultural or personal conflicts. In our sessions, I strive to create a warm and supportive environment where you feel safe to be seen, heard, and understood. I believe that a strong therapeutic relationship is the foundation for meaningful change.

I take an integrative approach, combining evidence-based modalities such as Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, Emotion-Focused Therapy, and Solution-Focused Therapy with an attachment-informed framework and somatic practices, creating strategies and techniques that are tailored to your unique needs. I’m committed to tailoring our sessions to meet what you’re looking for, whether that be working toward a specific goal or taking a more exploratory approach. If you’re considering counselling as a next step, I’d love for you to reach out so we can explore whether working together is a good fit.

If you’re feeling overwhelmed, stuck, or disconnected, you’re not alone. I work with individuals and couples who are navigating conflict, emotional challenges, anxiety, disconnection, or life transitions. Many people come to therapy feeling trapped in patterns that no longer serve them, and they’re looking for more clarity, grounding, and a greater sense of confidence in themselves.

My approach is relational, attachment-focused, and collaborative. I strive to create a space where you feel genuinely seen, understood, and safe to explore your experiences at a pace that feels comfortable for you. Together, we’ll work toward meaningful, sustainable change that supports your emotional well-being and personal growth.

I offer therapy in both English and Punjabi and welcome you to reach out for a consultation to see if we’re a good fit.

My path to becoming a counsellor began with a longstanding curiosity about what shapes us as human beings - biologically, psychologically, and emotionally. I began my academic journey studying Biology, drawn particularly to the complexities of the brain, the heart, and the profound relationship between the two. Through my exposure to psychology, that curiosity developed into a deeper calling: to understand the human experience and to support people through the deeply personal work of healing, growth, and change.

At the foundation of my practice is a belief in human resilience. Even when life feels overwhelming, uncertain, or far removed from what we imagined for ourselves, I believe we possess an extraordinary capacity to adapt, heal, and rediscover a sense of direction. Sometimes, however, we need a space in which we can slow down, understand what is happening beneath the surface, and begin to see ourselves and our circumstances with greater clarity.

My approach to counselling is person-centred, relational, and grounded in genuine curiosity about the individual sitting across from me. I do not believe therapy should be about fitting people into predetermined narratives or telling them who they should become. Instead, I seek to understand the experiences, relationships, patterns, strengths, and vulnerabilities that have shaped each person’s unique story.

I strive to create a therapeutic relationship characterized by warmth, authenticity, and thoughtful challenge - a space where you can speak openly without fear of judgment while also feeling supported in examining the patterns that may no longer be serving you. Together, we can explore not only what is causing distress, but what lies beneath it: the experiences that have shaped you, the beliefs you have carried, the ways you have learned to protect yourself, and the possibilities that emerge when those patterns are understood differently.

For me, meaningful therapy extends beyond simply alleviating symptoms. It is an opportunity to develop a deeper understanding of yourself, strengthen your relationship with your own emotions, and cultivate the confidence and insight to navigate life with greater intention.

You do not need to arrive in therapy knowing exactly what is wrong or precisely what needs to change. You may simply recognize that something feels unsettled, that familiar patterns are no longer working, or that you want something different for yourself and your relationships.

Wherever you find yourself in that process, I would be honoured to meet you there and to help you move toward a life that feels more grounded, connected, and authentically your own.

Simran is gradually returning from maternity leave with limited availability for new clients. Please book a consultation first.

As a woman of South Asian descent and a person of color, I bring valuable experience in navigating a culturally inclusive approach. My lived experience and growing up in a multicultural society, has given me a unique ability to see cultures from a different viewpoint; both the importance of beliefs & values that come from our cultures, whilst also recognizing the internal conflicts they can cause us as individuals. I sit with clients to meet their diverse needs within the community.

Embarking on the therapeutic journey requires courage and marks a pivotal moment in one’s life. I create a secure, inviting, and non-judgmental environment for my clients. My services are available in both English and Punjabi. The process of healing from trauma and prioritizing mental well-being is continuous, and it would be an honour to work with you and be a part of your healing journey. I invite you to connect for a free 15-minute phone consultation.

Sabrina is not currently taking new clients. Online booking is for existing clients only.

I primarily work with women who feel deeply, overthink, and feel stuck in relational or emotional patterns. Many of my clients experience anxiety, overthinking, emotional overwhelm, people-pleasing, or difficulty feeling secure in relationships.

My approach is human-first, relational, and trauma-informed. Therapy with me is paced, collaborative, and focused on helping you make sense of your experiences in a way that feels safe and grounding. I believe meaningful therapeutic work grows from feeling seen, understood, and met with care.

I offer both short-term and longer-term therapy and welcome you to book a phone consultation to see if working together feels like a good fit.
