Description
Shari works from her heart and believes that healing happens in relationship. She begins the counselling relationship by creating a safe space where one can allow themselves to be fully seen and heard. One of Shari’s greatest strengths as a Counsellor is the ability to move through the surface and go to the deeper root of any issue. She is able to balance tender with fierce compassion to hold clients accountable to their own goals and commitments. Her practice is grounded in understanding and integration of ethical standards and practices; respect for diversity; culturally safe.
