A few words

About Me

Background

Just in the way of introduction, I am the proprietor of Crocus Counselling Centre and have been working in Steinbach as a counsellor since 1994.  The areas I most often counsel for are sexual, emotional and physical abuse, marriage and relationship issues, depression/anxiety/stress,  and anger management.  My counselling is on an individual and couple basis. 

I have been through my own journey with sexual abuse recovery and have come out the other side, and believe I can help you on your journey.   I have also worked through issues in our marriage and am experiencing the sweetness that can come with a good relationship.

Mission Statement

Every person always has hope for healing.  There is no action or thought that a person can perform which affords me the right to think differently.  My commitment is to help people respond in a healthy way to personal and relational struggles.

I adhere to the counsellors’ code of ethics to respect the choice of my client, and to responsibly care for my client in ways that show him/her esteem and promote their dignity.

The worst thing you can do is straighten up and hold your head high because then you’ll start to feel better. If you’re going to get any joy out of being depressed, you’ve got to stand like this.” Charlie Brown

“Courage is what it takes to stand up and speak; courage is also what it takes to sit down and listen.”  Winston Churchill
