Personal Statement:
Difficult events like job loss, school/work life imbalance, death of a loved one, debilitating illness and marital discord are inevitable, and may knock you down. However, most people adapt well to challenging circumstances over time, while some are stuck. I believe in resilience, a process that takes time and effort, and requires you to take a number of steps. Let me walk with you to discover your strength and resilience, to expedite your recovery or, to achieve optimal mental health. I have more than ten years of experience in the helping profession, working with mainstream Canadians as well as those of diverse cultural backgrounds including foreign workers, international students, new Canadians and cross-cultural couples or families. Call me for a free half -hour consultation over the phone.
