Counselling is private. Quiet. Personal.

So when a client chooses to share a glimpse of their journey, it means the world.

Bek has helped me work through trauma and slowly start to feel like myself again. Not just returning to who I was, but also working on the parts of my life I wanted to grow and improve. She’s given me the tools and confidence to rebuild with intention. Most importantly, she’s also helped me to be there for my daughter and be whatever she needs me to be (at least most of the time). Time with Bek is an investment that is absolutely worth it.

"Bek has such a warmth in the way she communicates and listens so intently to you that it makes you feel both safe and heard. The way Bek validated how I was feeling made me feel okay about myself. I couldn’t recommend her more."
