About Chris
I work with people from all ages & demographics including children, First Nations, military & first responders and adolescents, seniors and many health care providers. I have extensive experience in complex mental health issues including PTSD among health care providers and others. I am able to help people with their insurance claims, disability and legal issues/process’s as well.
“We are made wise not by the recollection of our past, but by the responsibility for our future.” George Bernard Shaw–
While working together there is but one expert and, ultimately, one person responsible for your life. That person is you. I consider it an honour to work alongside people who are motivated for change and healing. As we are all very complex and unique I seek to help you identify and address your needs, challenges and goals from a respectful, positive and supportive role that is future oriented.
