Meet Andrika

Andrika supports ambitious professionals and entrepreneurs who are pushing hard to succeed but often feel like their bodies, or minds, are sending up red flags. Whether it’s chronic stress, burnout, or persistent physical pain, she helps you recognize when your drive is becoming your downfall. Andrika’s deep background in pain management also means she’s uniquely equipped to support those who live with chronic pain or care for someone who does — especially when the pain isn’t just physical but comes bundled with grief, frustration, or exhaustion. If you're tired of pretending you're fine and ready to start feeling like yourself again, she’s here to help.

Therapy with Andrika is dynamic, intentional, and laced with warmth. She knows that showing up to therapy doesn’t mean you want to slow down, it means you’re looking for smarter strategies to keep going without crashing. Andrika takes a whole-life approach: one that addresses emotional stress, performance pressure, and the mental toll of pain, whether physical or psychological. Her sessions often include tangible strategies you can implement immediately, and she’s not afraid to challenge the status quo if it means unlocking new paths to healing.

When she’s not in session, Andrika is either mentoring other clinicians, diving into the latest research on pain and performance, or enjoying downtime with her close-knit community. She’s a former high-level athlete with lived experience managing chronic pain, which fuels her empathy and determination in the therapy room. Andrika loves a good podcast, a well-crafted latte, and catching sun whenever she can.

Q&A

What does good mental health look like to you?
Good mental health is similar to good physical health- it's helpful to share what you're going through- it's like going to the mental gym and 'working out' those feelings.
What do you do to take care of your own mental health?
I walk in nature and spend time outside.
What is a motto or idea that gives you reassurance when you’re having a difficult time?
Even though this struggle feels so real in this moment, I continue to learn that by allowing myself to go through these feelings that they get easier over time. I'm honouring myself by allowing myself to feel this way.
