Rhodes Alumni Counsellor & Life Coach Directory

We are honoured to bring you a list of our graduates who have chosen to list their services on our Alumni Directory. All of our graduates have received significant training to help them become professional coaches and counsellors. Directory listing does not guarantee their ability to help every individual and Rhodes Wellness College does not guarantee the work of every graduate. We always urge potential clients to find the best counsellors and coaches that work for their unique situations.

Biography

I am a certified Life Coach, Registered Counsellor and Full Spectrum Doula based in Vancouver, BC (land of the xʷməθkʷəy̓əm (Musqueam), Sḵwx̱wú7mesh (Squamish), and səl̓ilwətaɁɬ / sel̓íl̓witulh (Tsleil-Waututh) peoples). I assist individuals and couples into deep acceptance and the healing power of the radical inclusion of all parts of ourselves. I believe that everyone deserves to feel heard, to feel supported and to realize their goals and dreams. I offer my presence to support, hold accountable and celebrate someone’s successes. I abide by a non-judgmental and compassionate framework. I believe in the gifts of exploring one’s inner world, gaining clarity about how experiences from the past affect life today and how to move into a present full of spaciousness, integration and joy.
