Personal Statement:
During my years as a social worker, I have discovered the importance of looking at difficulties and problems using a holistic approach.
We are much better equipped to deal with the struggles and changes we encounter if we feel whole and healthy in our body, mind and spirit and as a result, we become more resilient to life's challenges.
I believe that living well means making conscious decisions to honour ourselves with healthy and life-filling choices. Wellness counselling involves addressing issues by putting together a plan that supports the "whole person." It involves assisting a person to begin to recognize and make choices that increase a sense of vitality and of well-being.
I offer individual counselling, workshops and retreats.
