Hi, I’m Zach!

I am the founder of In Touch & In Tune Counselling, offering relational, trauma informed therapy in West Kelowna and online throughout British Columbia. He supports individuals navigating anxiety, trauma, grief, identity shifts, and major life transitions, with particular care for those healing from religious trauma and spiritual abuse.

My therapeutic approach is integrative and person-centered, drawing from spiritually informed psychotherapy, somatic awareness, and reflective dialogue. My work is grounded, compassionate, and steady, creating space for clients to process difficult experiences without judgment or pressure while reconnecting with their inner voice and sense of safety.

In addition to my clinical practice, I am pursuing PhD research through the University of Calgary focused on religious trauma and it's impact on client's spiritual well being related to decision making. My research explores the psychological and spiritual impact of high-control religious environments, faith deconstruction, and identity reconstruction. This academic work deeply informs my counselling practice, equipping me to support clients as they untangle complex layers of belief, belonging, shame, and self-trust.

I also serve as the Regional Lead for Psycho-Spiritual Therapy within Interior Health. In this role, I provide leadership and clinical guidance across the region, supporting interdisciplinary teams and integrating culturally safe, spiritually informed care within acute hospital settings. My work emphasizes consistent practice standards, collaborative workflows, and ensuring patients and families receive respectful, trauma-aware spiritual health support during times of crisis and vulnerability.

I believe healing happens in relationship — when individuals feel seen, heard, and supported as whole persons. My goal is to help clients move from survival mode toward clarity, integration, and a renewed sense of agency in their lives.
