Hi, I’m Valen, an Occupational Therapist at Urban Alchemist.
Our sessions will be held via telehealth, which I see as a beautiful opportunity for you to create your own sacred space for our work together.

I offer a holistic and integrative approach to health and wellbeing. My practice focuses on supporting the reconnection between body, mind, emotions, and daily function through a sensitive, grounded, and contemporary lens.

I welcome you into a space where you can feel safe to explore, release, and reconnect with yourself.

I provide practical interventions and strategies to help you manage symptoms, build independence, and engage more fully in your everyday life, always with an emphasis on what brings you purpose, connection, and joy.

My sessions blend evidence-based occupational therapy with holistic practices, including sensory regulation, conscious movement, somatic awareness, therapeutic breathwork, compassionate presence, and sound healing.

I believe every human holds the potential for meaningful expression and coherence. My approach centres on respect, active listening, and non-judgmental guidance. I am passionate about creating a supportive environment where individuals can rediscover their own rhythm and inhabit their bodies with greater ease and authenticity.
