Strides provides a consistently safe, welcoming, and non-judgmental environment, designed to meet you where you’re at, and help you navigate the direction and pace of where you want to go.

Drawing on client centred, collaborative, and strength-based approaches, clients can expect to experience a refreshing mix of patience, compassion, curiosity and humour within each individually tailored appointment. As an RCC, I strive to create a space for clients that feels safe enough to engage in difficult conversations, yet familiar enough to feel genuinely understood, accepted, and capable of creating meaningful change.
