. . .    for those aspiring to live their best life   . . .

Providing accessible personal counselling for clients in New Westminster, Burnaby and Vancouver Surround.

We are most motivated to seek a professional counsellor when stressed. Stress symptoms including: exhaustion, frustration, anxiety, anger, sadness or depression, or changed sleeping or eating habits, alert us that there is something we may need to deal with to get our lives back on track.

Stress arises from: relationships, parenting, health, self-talk, personal ‘triggers’, expectations, work, unresolved issues, traumatic memories, and life transitions such as, loss or death, birth, marriage, illness, divorce, relocation, or career changes, among others.

Other challenges may be existential or spiritual. We may question the meaning of life and our purpose. We might yearn for higher aspirations to explore and reach for.

Unfortunately, we sometimes avoid or deny our concerns, or numb our uneasiness using drugs or alcohol. We may use distractions, other addictions, or overindulge in: eating, exercising, gambling, partying, gaming, dramatics, or TV watching. These ways often result in even more problems. Or, they may serve as obstacles to our happiness and to our living our life with authenticity and satisfaction.

When we realize such coping methods no longer work, or badly effect us or others, we may choose to seek better ways, perhaps with the assistance of a trained and caring professional. Counselling can help us to reconnect with, and listen to, what our bodies, hearts and minds are directing us to do. When we listen to our own wisdom we can then be true to ourselves and live our lives better.

Those seeking counselling generally want to feel better about themselves, their lives and their lives' direction; They seek to improve, even optimize their daily situations. Perhaps they truly understand that life is not a dress rehearsal and its time to make the most of it.

Seeing a professionally certified Counsellor can often provide the hope, the knowledge and the impetus to make the changes necessary to make lives better. In fact, oftentimes with persistence and an openness to try new ways of being, clients find that they begin to live their lives with new enthusiasm and joyfulness . . .

and that they find their paths towards living their best life . . .
