It’s so painful to feel disconnected from your Most Important People, and the awful ripple of this pain extends out into every aspect in your life. It’s not only the conflict, there are the awful silences too, and to make it worse you’re endlessly pulled between the challenges of balancing career, kids, extended families, your own needs, plus the ever–shifting sands that life throws at us. It’s all incredibly difficult, never mind finding the time for relationship counselling…
I specialize in working with couples who know they have something that’s worth holding onto and a lot worth fighting for and yet find themselves stuck in the painful cycles of disconnect and conflict. I’ve got a passion to help people flourish in relationships and I want to help you put an end to the conflicts and long silences and start understanding what’s really at the heart of it all. I use a holistic approach that works to see both sides of the pain and struggle. Our work together is immersive and experiential and we’ll find ways to stop the struggle and start the new moves for a thriving relationship.
I work with Couples/ Relationships, Families, individuals. FNHA, CVAP, ICBC registered.
Anxiety, depression, trauma, grief and loss, stress, anger, conflict, life transitions, and i specialize in working with couples and relationships.

Caroline Is Not Accepting New Clients At This Time.
We all know our individual well-being and relationships are integral to personal and professional satisfaction. Towards this end, counselling focuses on mutual goal setting while always working to help a client establish deeply embedded feelings and patterns of self-worth, well-being, and meaningful relationship connections.
Through a respectful and caring exploration encouraging curiosity and gentleness towards your behaviours, emotions, thoughts, and belief systems, you and your relationships are capable of deeper understanding, growth and change.
Creating a sense of wholeness can start with something as simple as feeling heard, seen and understood – key concepts to our individual well-being and relationship satisfaction.
I am passionately in love with the work I do and believe that every person is capable of growth and transformational change. Working with individuals, couples and in family systems, my expertise is in the areas of anxiety, depression, stress, emotional numbing and shutdown, conflict and abuse, grief, loss, unmet expectations, injuries such as infidelity, disappointments and addictions, and forgiveness. I am able to help clients increase self awareness while decreasing the confusion of internal chaos and strife. The outcome is greater overall satisfaction, and better relationships.
Primary Focus:
- Relationship Counselling (EFT) – strengthen relationship, ease conflict, improve communication, increase intimacy, enjoyment and appreciation, recover from affairs and clarify commitment.
