In our online somatic therapy sessions, we move BEYOND WORDS and connect deeply with the WISDOM of your own BODY! Through mindfulness, somatic practices, breathwork, and touch, we access profound layers of healing and insight that arise from tuning into the body's innate intelligence.
Perhaps you have tried therapy before but haven't been able to create lasting change. You notice the tension on your shoulders, or that heaviness on your chest and just can't shake it off. As a Registered Clinical Counsellor, these online somatic therapy sessions will help you release the trauma, anxiety, or grief you’ve been trying to process.
Imagine shedding years of pent-up stress and walking through life with a newfound sense of freedom and joy. In our sessions, we embark on a journey to restore balance and harmony, fostering a deep sense of fulfillment and transformation that ripples through every aspect of your life.
Hi, I'm fiona
more about me
I experienced firsthand the transformational power of being held by a compassionate other while going through dark times. My own continuous path towards healing and wholeness inspired me to create a safe space for others as they embark on their own journey.
I work with those who are looking to deepen their relationship to self through the wisdom of the body and lead a life lived by the heart, soul and inner knowing.
I’m a Registered Clinical Counsellor with BCACC. I provide somatic therapy in Vancouver and online.
Somatic therapy saved my life
daily self-reflection journal
for the life that happens between sessions
Reflections, questions, and embodied practices for noticing yourself more closely and staying in conversation with what is moving within you.
“Thank you for holding space for my deep self and for guiding me in connecting with and listening to the emotions that have been stuck in my body. I understand now that my body speaks in colours, shapes, animals, and sensations, rather than words, and that's ok. I've been developing a morning ritual where I get up when the house is quiet and dark, and I do yoga, meditate, and listen to my body. My startle response has calmed down, in part because of therapy and in part because I was drinking way too much coffee! I will miss you and our time together. Near or far, I expect a season will come when I will knock on your door again with a new goal. I hope you will still be doing this work because it is so needed and you do it so well, but we are all multifaceted creatures, and I wish you the best wherever your path leads you. The world is a better place because you are in it.”

Somatic therapy has calmed my startle response
“We worked with Fiona to help us navigate and heal a rupture in our relationship - one that we didn't know we would come back from. But we were committed to doing the work to find out. The good news, two years later, we are the most solid and committed we have been, and our work with Fiona plays a huge part in that success. We found her ability to bring both intuition and practical tools extremely helpful. She helped us feel the feelings if we didn't have the words for them, gave us tools we could use when navigating conflict, and helped us understand that conflict is normal and human - it's how you repair that brings you back together. We went from days of tense, post-conflict aftermath to rebounding within hours after working with Fiona and that holds true years after working with her. We are forever grateful, and to any couple committed to doing the work, you are in good hands.”

Somatic therapy has made our relationship better
"I'm shifting in way that I have never imagined. This isn't the work I'm used to doing in counselling, and yet when the connection happens and release comes I feel like I have unloaded years worth of heavy emotions. My life is naturally shifting in ways that I never imagined possible, my body has started to process emotion differently, I am thinking about life differently, and I feel powerful." A. L., 43
Somatic therapy with Fiona is changing my life
"Working with Fiona and implementing somatic modalities in my life, has completely transformed my relationship with myself and the world around me. As I learn to connect with my body, I become more attune to my inner child and my authentic self. Fiona has taught me how to hold space for myself, how to let go of guilt and has helped me recognize that it is safe for me to experience a happy life of my own definition" A. B., 31
I can finally hear myself again and my true desires
“Fiona is very accomplished at her craft; compassionate and insightful in her observations as well as clear and concise in her manner of speaking. I would suggest her to anyone who is facing turmoil and seeking clarity and grounding. I felt very supported by Fiona not only when I was grieving (so much crying!) but also as I turned the corner and began to feel whole again. She shared in my joy of self discovery and I believe she genuinely cared how things developed for me. ” B. C., 57
kept me focused on growing my self awareness.
"From the very first session, I felt we made significant headway into 'the meat of the sandwich'; I am quite accustomed to having such 'breakthroughs' only after several sessions with someone. Fiona has consistently delved straight into old wounds with our sessions and I have left each discussion with a noticeable feeling of being lighter and finding release of old tension - some of that tension I was not even aware existed within me. I highly recommend Fiona as a therapist/counsellor - she is incredible at what she does and is an amazing guide on your path to healing!" K. C., 44
After years of talk therapy, grateful to have found Fiona
“I feel incredibly seen by Fiona and working with her has changed my life. With gentle, deeply compassionate, and incisive clarity, Fiona gets to the heart of the issues I raise in our sessions. I leave our sessions with a fresh, always resonating, perspective on something I've been struggling with. Fiona provides specific therapeutic tools which power my own work outside of the sessions and have enriched my life greatly. .” M. B., 33
Fiona's support is highly attuned and insightful
