MEET OUR BC TEAM
MEET SARAH
ADMINISTRATIVE ASSISTANT/INTAKE SPECIALIST
I know that reaching out for help is often the hardest part — that's why I make sure the first voice you hear at Creative Minds is a warm one.
I grew up in the Tri-Cities and completed my Bachelor of Science in Psychology at UBC Okanagan, with experience in behavioural intervention, cognitive assessment, and mental health support, plus research in autism and cognitive psychology. I'm working toward my long-term goal of becoming a psychologist — and until then, there's nothing I love more than helping families find their footing and connecting them with the right care.
When you book a free 15-minute consultation with me, we'll talk through what's going on and figure out your best next step together. No pressure, no jargon — just a real conversation.
Outside the clinic, you'll find me reading, walking my dog, or spending time with friends and family.
MEET CHRISTINE
Registered Clinical Counsellor (RCC)
After more than ten years of sitting with people in their hardest moments, I've learned that lasting change doesn't come from having all the answers — it comes from having a safe space to find your own.
I work with children, teens, adults, and families, and my approach is warm, collaborative, and client-centred: you set the direction, and I walk alongside you with practical tools and honest support. I'm trained in CBT, DBT, ACT, and parts work, and I tailor every plan to the person in front of me — including neurodivergent clients, for whom I adapt my approach rather than asking them to adapt to therapy.
I believe therapy is a place to deepen self-awareness, honour every part of who you are, and build the skills to navigate life's challenges with confidence and resilience.
MEET
BRIE
Registered Social Worker (MSW)
Children don't always have the words for what they're carrying. But give them a sand tray, some paint, or a room where it feels safe to play — and they'll show you.
I'm passionate about helping children, teens, and young adults build resilience, process difficult experiences, and develop healthy coping skills. I work a lot with trauma, anxiety, neurodivergent kids (autism and ADHD), developmental disabilities, FASD, and foster, adoptive, and kinship families — including youth in government care.
My main tools are Child-Centered Play Therapy, Sand Tray Therapy, and CBT, always adapted to your child's developmental stage. I studied psychology at Princeton, social practice at Trinity College Dublin, and earned my Master of Social Work at UBC Okanagan, with advanced training through the Canadian Association for Play Therapy. I practise under the supervision of a Certified Play Therapy Supervisor.
