Description
Sherley’s professional, academic and personal journey has taught her the strength in promoting agency and resiliency in others. She practices holistically and collaboratively, in which she believes that all factors of a person’s identity (such as psyche, childhood, social supports, gender, culture, etc.) are interwoven pieces in one’s therapeutic journey. Sherley values authentically building a strong therapeutic relationship to create a safe non-judgemental space. She is committed to using compassion, patience, and empathy to help clients reach their goals.

Facility Information
Transformation Counselling
Summary
Mental health exists on a continuum. At one end is what's known as mental illness, like depression, anxiety, or PTSD. At the other end is mental wellness, which people don't talk about as much: joy, satisfaction, freedom. Most counselling focuses on just reducing symptoms and getting people to the point where they can cope. At Transformation Counselling, we believe that human beings are meant for more than just coping. Wherever you are on the continuum of mental health, our counselling services can help you move closer to peak human functioning.
