Hi, I’m Bess (she/they).
I am a Registered Social Worker and Somatic Experiencing Practitioner. I offer virtual psychotherapy services to individuals living in BC as well as the Yukon.
I support folks navigating a wide range of mental health concerns, with particular areas of specialized focus: trauma, queer and trans mental health, anxiety and chronic stress, reproductive and perinatal mental health, grief and loss, and life transitions.
My approach is collaborative, compassionate, and trauma-informed. I draw heavily on somatic approaches to healing, which help us build capacity to relate to challenging feelings in new ways as well as process and move through past stress and trauma.
You don't need to have everything figured out before you reach out. We can start wherever you are.
