Hello,

As a second-generation Japanese Canadian impacted by war-generated trauma, I practice compassionate inquiry about emotionally reactive behaviours and explore what is needed to increase our capacity for wellbeing, dialogue and collaboration. 

As a settler on the unceded lands of the Coast Salish peoples, I work to understand the scope of my privilege under this colonial system.  My experience and work integrates my longstanding commitments to working with people impacted by colonization, classism, racism, and intergenerational trauma.

I am a certified trainer in Nonviolent Communication (NVC).  Based in Vancouver, Canada I’ve been offering NVC training for individuals and organizations for over 15 years.

If this resonates for you, I work virtually with people all over the world.

My fees are sliding scale, this allows me to work with people with and without resources. In light of my commitments to equity, when possible, I offer a reduced fee for those with limited resources wanting to undertake transformational work.
