Iris Wagner-Ritzmann RPC, MPCC, MA FOUNDER & CLINICAL COUNSELLOR Always passionate about supporting healthy families, Iris Wagner-Ritzmann has supported families for over 20 years through coaching, mediation, and counselling.

Moreover, Iris is devoted to family counselling and helping parents to co-parent thus enhancing the well-being of their children. Through the Royal Roads University, Iris continued her training in conflict resolutions and family mediation, furthering her knowledge on the voice of children, the effects of separation and divorce on adults and children, and strategies in dealing with anger.
