I work with families, children, and youth to address issues such as: ADHD, executive function, social skills, grief, loss, trauma, self-esteem, and emotional regulation. I, also, support parents with meaningful collaboration regarding Individual Education Plans (IEPs), Positive Behaviour Intervention Support Plans (PBIS), and positive parenting practices. In addition to working with children individually, I work with the whole family by providing new ideas and resources for the family to practice and utilize between sessions.

From these foundational beliefs, I support clients’ individual needs and wants by opening a window of safety and trust. My approach to counselling is rooted in a range of best frameworks and practices such as Solution Focus Brief Therapy (SFBT), Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), Sensorimotor Psychotherapy (SPI), Mindfulness, and Sand Tray with the Transformational Systemic Therapy (Satir),

I am the co-founder of the SEEM (Social Emotional Regulation Program), created with the vision of helping children and their families to be consciously regulated so that they can enjoy the present moment in life from a happier and calmer perspective. SEEM is offered individually or in a group of 4 children where we work on mindfulness, social skills, Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) and sensorimotor psychotherapy.

I have over two decades of experience in the education field working with children and families, supporting their emotional well-being.

HTMA: A Quick Intro

Mineral imbalances are at the root of many chronic health concerns. These imbalances can typically be detected through Hair Analysis months or even years before they may appear in blood, due to blood’s homeostatic nature. HTMA can be a powerful screening tool for the body’s endocrine system, thyroid expression, adrenal status, energy issues, clues into digestive disorders, (preventative) cardiovascular and musculoskeletal markers, one’s stress response, depression, anxiety, hair loss, and more.

There are many forms of “hair analysis” on the market today, many of which are NOT based on the science of nutritional balancing which was developed in the 1970s & 80s by Drs Eck and Watts. They were the ones who established the ideal reference ranges for minerals in hair and how mineral levels and corresponding ratios relate to health conditions. Eck and Watts were the founders of the ARL and TEI labs respectively, which today remain the top 2 labs globally that specialize in this test and follow all proper testing protocol. TEI (the lab Rick uses) employed ICP Mass Spectrometry (the most modern and expensive analytical technique to be applied to routine elemental analysis) and adheres to the highest standards of quality control.

HTMA remains the primary test of choice by the US Environmental Protection Agency for detecting heavy metals in the body, and provides a valuable roadmap for dietary guidance, safe detox, and optimizing health.

Notes to Prepare for Your Appointment

As a Doctor of Traditional Chinese Medicine, I seek to find balance in the human body. TCM considers physiological, emotional, environmental aspects as being equally important puzzle pieces connected to make up a beautiful and complete picture of wellness.

My unique post graduate studies, and hands-on clinical experience of over 10 years, has refined my skills to specialize in several key areas designed to support holistic health from the inside out:

physical pain skin rejuvenation digestion/ metabolism hormone balancing stress management Having an education in many styles of massage therapy, in addition to receiving multiple regenerative needling, and advanced Clinical Pilates instructor certifications, has allowed me to properly relieve:

acute/ chronic muscle tightness throbbing/ aching/ pulsing/ cramping frozen shoulder/ shoulder blades lower back/ hip flexor/ SI joint sciatica/ tingling/ shooting/ numbness tennis/ golfers elbow/ tendonitis carpal tunnel/ wrist/ hand/ trigger finger weakness/ instability/ compensation postural tendencies/ repetitive/ overuse tension headaches/ migraines Often, there are further factors to consider after undoing knots and kinks in the body: hydration, nutrition, movement, rest. This will help to keep the aches away once they’ve been released by one or more of these tools/ techniques:

acupuncture/ electro acupuncture dry needling/ trigger point cupping/ gua sha massage/ tuina active/ passive stretching exercise/ re-engagement alignment correction supplementation/ herbs nutrition counseling Skin Health is another fascinating field where the internal affects the external to a great degree. As we are all aware, what we eat, when we sleep, how we feel, have an immediate effect on our face:

Cora is NOT accepting New Patients at this time. Current patients please contact Cora to book for the summertime.

Direct billing to PBC available, not accepting ICBC at this time.

PLEASE NOTE: Cora does not offer full body relaxation massage.

Cora has been practicing as a RMT for over 12 years across Canada. She is a graduate of 3000hr WCCMT New Westminster program and has taken part in outreaches and clinical settings, ranging from working with professional athletes to patients with neurological and autoimmune conditions.

During an initial visit with Cora, she will use a combination of approaches to formulate a treatment plan. She focuses on education and body awareness, taking in to account all the various aspects of your life that may be affecting your current state of health. She will then recommend a plan that is tailored to your life at that time, as well as establishing goals for future appointments.

Cora continues to update her education, including but not limited to; pain science - acute/chronic pain management, DNM (dermoneuromodulation), L.A.S.T (ligamentous articular strain technique), TMJD treatment, general body bio mechanics, complex joint injuries-rotator cuff and hip/knee injuries, acute and chronic injury treatment and prevention from athletes to office workers, kinesthetic exercises/active rehabilitation, ergonomics, stress management and myofascial mobilizations.

Growing up in Langley, B.C, Cora rode horses competitively throughout her life and began using Massage Therapy and Chiropractic care, among other modalities, to keep herself and her horse pain free and in top condition. She was lucky to have highly accomplished therapists treating her, who ultimately helped shaped her practice as it is today.

Outside of work, Cora can be found wandering around the Inlet during a rainstorm-yes she really does love the rain, weight training, cooking mountains of healthy and “somewhat” healthy food, or curled up on the couch entertaining her cat (who really is a dog trapped in a feline form….).

Call/text (778) 926 7279 or email cora@vonatherapeutics.com if you have any questions.

REFLEXOLOGY is a method of stimulating the REFLEX POINTS in the feet that correspond with each of the body’s organs and functions. It is a perfect fit with massage therapy, chiropractic, and all other healing modalities. By rebalancing and deeply relaxing the body’s system, the effectiveness of other treatments are vastly improved. WHOLISTIC, NON-INVASIVE and GENTLE, it is a beneficial for all ages – infant to seniors!

Following a detailed mapping of the body, gentle pressure is applied with the fingers and thumb of the practitioner on the plantar, dorsal, lateral and medial sides of each foot. Correct stimulation of these reflex points causes a release of trapped stress and tension, bringing about a deep state of relaxation. Toxins are also released, and ones’ natural energies flow freely, assisting to normalize the entire system. The body is REVITALIZED and SUPPORTED in its own healing process.
