WELCOME HOME TO YOU
A new way of being, within your grasp.
Embodied trauma therapy for adults and teens 16+
in New Westminster, BC and online + Brainspotting + CVAP clinical counselling for survivors of abuse, violence, and crime.
Welcome. My name is Ava.
I believe every person has the power to thrive by enhancing their mind/body/spirit connection, living a valued life, and cultivating strong relationships in community with others. I help people who feel overwhelmed get back in touch with their values, experience safety in their bodies, and live meaningful, empowered lives. If you’ve been struggling with a difficult past, feeling “too” deeply, or the weight of the world, I would love to work, journey, and rejoice with you.
My work is informed by my own lived experience as a queer, nonbinary, and disabled person navigating neurodivergence and chronic pain. I am also a white settler and have lived on unceded Coast Salish territories for over 10 years, and am immensely grateful to call this land my home.
I offer individual therapy and relationship therapy in-person in downtown New Westminster, and online across BC.
I work with survivors of abuse and violence, and people who feel overwhelmed and want to reconnect with their bodies and values, and live a meaningful, empowering life.
