About Me

My name is Rié, and I am a therapist, animal lover, photographer, outdoor adventurer, book reader, and the list goes on.
I am passionate about mental health and value continued growth and learning. I have a small counselling practice in Coquitlam, BC, where I provide in-person sessions, and I also am available for virtual sessions for anyone in BC.

Education & Experience

I have my Bachelors (BSW) and Masters of Social Work (MSW) Degrees from UBC in Vancouver, Candada. I have gone on to do additional training in CBT, DBT, Narrative, SPACE and EMDR (EMDR Basic training, Flash, and EMDR 2.0). EMDR is one of the main therapies I use in my practice and I am currently in the certification process.
