Reconnect with wholeness and ease

Embodied, creative, and nature-based counselling

In-person & in-nature in Vancouver & Burnaby and virtually across BC

Hi, I’m Shila. Thank you for being here.

I am a counsellor and Registered Social Worker in Vancouver, BC. I offer counselling therapy that is embodied, creative, and connected with Nature.

Maybe you find it hard to express yourself in words. Or, maybe traditional talk therapy makes you feel stuck “in your head”. Maybe you are curious about trying counselling in and with Nature, or you have wondered what exploring the landscapes of your emotions through art might look like.

If any of these resonates with you, I’d love to offer my support.

  • Burnout and stress
