Meet Julie! I am a Master’s student with Yorkville University completing my Counselling and Psychology degree. I bring a rich and diverse background, bringing unique perspectives and genuine understanding to my practice. As a single mother, a competitive three-day event rider, animal enthusiast, and a seasoned police officer with over 21 years of service, I have cultivated resilience, empathy, and a deep commitment to helping others navigate life’s challenges. My journey began in law enforcement and this experience granted me invaluable insights into crisis management, conflict resolution, and trauma-informed care. Throughout my policing career, I have worked with people from all walks of life, supporting individuals and families through some of their most difficult moments. My work has reinforced my belief in the power of connection, trust, and holistic support. I am excited to combine my love for animals with my passion for personal growth and development into my counselling practice.

Meet Dorothy

It is my belief and experience that change is possible. Humans have innate abilities and wisdom, which we can uncover when we feel heard, connected, and safe. As a therapist, my goal is to work together with you so that you feel seen, valued, and empowered to create meaningful changes in your life.

Background & Training

I am a Registered Clinical Counsellor with the BC Association of Clinical Counsellors. I hold an M.A. in Counselling Psychology from Yorkville University and a B.A. in Psychology from Simon Fraser University. Before becoming a counsellor, I worked as an education assistant in the Vancouver school system for ten years, supporting neurodivergent children and those struggling with emotional regulation. Additionally, I have a long-standing relationship with the Chinese community in Vancouver, where I teach emotional intelligence to children and youth and facilitate self-discovery retreats for adults.

Counselling Profile

My holistic approach to counselling is grounded in attachment theory, family systems, neuroscience, and somatic work. I view wellness as encompassing physical, mental, emotional, relational, and spiritual connections. My passion for yoga, breathwork, healthy living, and the fine arts deeply influences my therapeutic approach. These practices help me guide individuals in fostering deeper self-awareness and nurturing a healthier relationship with themselves. I work with a diverse range of clients, supporting them on their journey toward personal growth and well-being.

Our View on Counselling

I believe that counselling is a collaborative process. Through compassion and support, I help clients explore their emotions, heal, and grow. My goal is to create a space where individuals can connect with their body, mind, and relationships, fostering meaningful change and personal growth.

Change can feel overwhelming—but you don’t have to navigate it alone. I’m here to support you in discovering what drives you, building self-awareness, and taking steps toward a more fulfilling life. My approach is client-centered, strength-based, and focused on achievable goals. My work is grounded in empathy and unconditional positive regard.

Clients often describe me as approachable, warm, and genuine—with a touch of humor to make the process feel more human. I aim to create a safe, nonjudgmental space where you can be your true self and talk about anything. (I truly believe that secrets can weigh us down.)

Accountability is a key part of how I support my clients—not in a rigid way, but through encouragement and clarity. Together, we’ll identify what matters most to you and chart a practical path forward.

I specialize in Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), and ADHD coaching. I help individuals manage symptoms like impulsivity, distractibility, disorganization, and challenges with executive functioning. I also support those struggling with emotional regulation, boundary-setting, and identity concerns, particularly related to Borderline Personality Disorder (BPD). Whether you’re on medication or not, you’re welcome here.

If you’re feeling stuck or unsure where to begin, let’s start with a free 15-minute consultation to see if we’re a good match. I’d be honored to be part of your journey.
