Counsellor Directory

This innovative membership service serves to promote business information about your counselling practice, specialized services and skills as well as the ability to upload a profile picture and business logo. With futurist trends heading towards a generation that seeks information online as well as a specific set of skills, knowledge and experience, the CPCA believes this directory will provide a competitive edge for marketing our member's counselling services across Canada to the public, insurance providers, EAP contractors and government for verification of your legitimacy. All members who are in "good standing" will be approved to list their contact information in the directory on an annual basis. It allows our members to login to their directory listing once it has been approved and make any changes to their contact information.

Description

I am so excited to be serving Campbell River and surrounding area. I was born here and raised in Black Creek, so I understand many of the cultural and socio-economic issues and struggles unique to the area. I have also lived in other countries and travelled a lot, so I empathize with new people to the area because I have lived culture shock. I have been a caregiver and public servant with an emphasis on keeping families together, recovery, equal rights for ALL, and improving the quality of life of clients. I have had the privilege of serving as a Foster Parent for 10+ years, Caregiver for at risk youth with the John Howard Society, Education Assistant, Residential Support Worker, Youth Leader, Business Owner, and Humanitarian.
My heart is for those who don't feel like they fit in, the lost or wandering, and those who are unfairly mistreated. My desire is for true self acceptance through wholehearted healing, regardless of background, age or gender.
