Transformational healing through compassionate connection.
Online therapy for individuals and relationships across BC and Ontario.
Welcome, I’m Carmel.
I am a registered social worker and therapist situated on the unceded territories of the Lekwungen and WSÁNEĆ speaking peoples, colonially recognized as Victoria, BC. I provide virtual psychotherapy services to individuals (18+) and relationships/couples throughout British Columbia (RSW #12898) and Ontario (RSW #851622). As a liberation- oriented and trauma-focused therapist, my work is centered on supporting trauma survivors, People of the Global Majority (BIPoC), neurodivergent folks, and Queer community, but my door is open to everyone who feels a connection with my approach.
I understand that seeking therapy can often stem from a place of pain, confusion, or even curiosity about self-understanding and growth. I hold deep reverence for whatever it is that has led you here. You are welcome here exactly as you are.
Please note: My practice is full and I am not currently accepting new clients. Please check back in December for updated availability. Wishing you all the best in your search.
Offerings
-
Individual Therapy
I offer a warm, non-judgemental, compassionate space for individuals to explore and process their experiences. With a foundation in anti-oppressive values, my approach integrates trauma-informed, body-focused (somatic), experiential, and emotionally-focused therapeutic modalities to support your path to healing and wholeness.
-
Relationship Therapy
Informed by attachment-focused and emotionally-focused therapies, I help partners heal from cycles of conflict and deepen connections. Together, we work towards fostering kinder communication, and deepening the felt sense of love to honour and celebrate your unique relationship.
-
EMDR Therapy
Words are often not enough to fully heal from trauma. EMDR is an evidence-based trauma-focused therapy that extends beyond merely discussing what happened to you. By harnessing the innate healing power of your brain and body, EMDR can help transform distressing events into sources of growth and healing.
