About

You're not broken, and you don’t need fixing. At your core, you're whole. But life, trauma, loss, stress, and relationships can make you feel fragmented/out of alignment. My work is about helping you remember who you are beneath the layers: sovereign and capable of living an authentic life. My approach is collaborative to your unique lived experience. Healing is not linear, but it is possible.

Biography

Hi, I’m Sandra—founder of Sovereign Wellness Inc. and a counsellor based in North Vancouver and Vancouver, BC. I created this practice to hold space for people who are ready to come home to themselves. Whether you're navigating a life transition, feeling disconnected from your inner voice, or seeking more clarity and peace, you deserve a space where you feel seen, supported, and empowered. You are also worthy of the opportunity to untangle the impact of past experiences on present-day life. My approach is warm, collaborative, and holistic. I take the time to truly understand what matters most to you: your values, history, hopes, beliefs, and fears. Together we explore what healing and growth can look like on your terms. I believe therapy should feel safe, intentional, and deeply respectful of your autonomy. You're the expert of your own life, and I’m here to walk beside you as you reconnect with your own inner wisdom, something you've always had but maybe lost connection with. I work with individuals and couples with a special interest in supporting people with, but not limited to: - Men's Issues - Trauma (including Childhood) - Disordered Eating and Exercise - Grief and loss - Identity exploration - Relationship challenges - Elder issues - Career transitions Symptoms can look like anxiety, controlling thoughts, sense of lostness, burnout, poor self-esteem, low confidence, bad body thoughts, sadness, worry, loss of purpose/purpose confusion, communication issues, dysregulated emotions and behaviour, and depression. Together, we explore how these symptoms impact your life day to day, with a focus on understanding the root so you are able to feel tangible, long lasting changes to your life. Finally, I want to highlight the honour I have to offer a safe and supportive place for men to be heard with their own unique issues and perspectives. While I do not have lived experience, men deserve a space where they can show up authentically, explore emotional regulation without judgement, shaming or guilt. Over 50% of my clients are men, seeking support. If this resonates with you, I encourage you to book a 60 minute virtual complimentary consultation. You'll be given the space and time to unpack what brings you to therapy and see if we are a good fit. At Sovereign Wellness Inc., the focus is on reclaiming what has always been yours—your sense of self, your power, your voice. I’d be honoured to support you on that journey. When you're ready - I'm here. With reverence and gratitude, Sandra
