“My passion is to help people achieve self-understanding and self-awareness. When people understand themselves, they are able to make decisions based on current needs and the goals they have for life”.

A leading Calgary counselling therapists practice, Conscientia Counselling, was founded by me in 2016 after finishing a Master’s degree in Counselling Psychology in 2015. In the early stages, Conscientia Counselling was linked to Insight Counselling where I worked as a second supervisor and focused on working with the Spanish population. Today Conscientia Counselling is becoming a full practice with learning opportunities for students engaged in practicum practice in order to finish their Master’s degree in Counselling Psychology

I can to assist you in achieving your goals and creating your preferred realities. My interest in psychotherapy include, but are not limited to, addictions, self-esteem, and stress-reduction.

Your vision will become clear only when you can look into your own heart. Who looks outside, dreams, who looks inside awakes.
