Family relationships can be our greatest source of strength — and sometimes, our deepest source of stress. Whether it’s navigating conflict, supporting a child through challenging behaviour, healing from intergenerational trauma, or improving communication, family counselling provides a safe and non-judgmental space to rebuild connection. At On My Own Side Counselling Services, I help families move beyond blame and frustration to understand one another’s needs and create more supportive, respectful relationships.
Family struggles often stem from miscommunication, unmet needs, shifting roles, or unresolved
wounds from the past. My approach is grounded in compassion and systems thinking —
recognizing that each person is shaped by their context and experiences.
With experience as a school counsellor in the Surrey School District and a support counsellor for the Ministry of Children and Family Development (MCFD), I bring a deep understanding of how family dynamics, youth development, and external stressors intersect. I’ve supported families navigating complex emotional, behavioural, and relational challenges — and I work collaboratively to help each member feel heard, respected, and supported.
Whether you're seeking help with parent-child relationships, sibling conflict, or the stress that life transitions can place on your family, this space is here to support you in finding greater understanding and connection.
To support individuals in processing their grief and finding a path toward healing, allowing them to honor their loved ones while rebuilding their lives.
