Provider information

Description

Hi, my name is Shaila and I am a Registered Clinical Counsellor.  I am originally from New Zealand and moved to Vancouver in 2000.  This was one of several significant transitions in my life and I bring insights from these experiences to my work.

Prior to becoming a counsellor, I was an accountant for over 20 years. This period provided huge learning about issues such as burnout, perfectionism, and stress, both in myself, and people I worked with and mentored.  During this time, I also discovered a passion for helping people find balance in their lives.
