Susan is friendly, approachable, empathetic, encouraging and sensitive.
Along with her professional training and affiliations, Susan brings to her practice the life experiences of a wife, mother, widow, single parent, and subsequently, a parent of a blended family. Today she also has first-hand experience as a primary caregiver.
These life experiences, as well as her education in counselling and coaching, have enabled her to develop the skills of:
- empathy for people with special needs, whether mental, spiritual or physical;
- compassion for people who find themselves alone, lonely, or without adequate resources or the ability to face the daily battle of life;
- and respect for those who courageously seek help to overcome their challenges, disappointments and failures.
Susan’s desire is to help people who find themselves in times of crisis, in life transitions, or in difficult challenges, to clarify and achieve their goals, overcome obstacles, define where they’re going in life, and meet new challenges with confidence.
She strives to help them get balance in life so that they can reach their full potential as unique individuals. Susan uses a variety of counselling modalities to help her clients achieve these goals.
