Hi! I'm Glenda. Would you like your relationship to be so much more than it is? Maybe you've been fighting with your partner or relative for years or even decades and would like some help so that you can see the joy in your relationship again. Perhaps you are in the middle of a separation or divorce. Or you've experienced a tragic loss. Infertility? Illness? Difficult in-laws or toxic coworkers? Complicated grief? Do you feel alone? Are you wondering where God is in all of this, as many of us do? I would be honored if you would allow me to support you.

I specialize in couple's therapy, Christian counselling, complicated grieving, and personality disorders. My work experience includes nursing in psychiatry, cancer, and rehabilitation. I hold a Master's degree in clinical counseling and I'm a member in good standing at the Canadian Association for Marriage and Family Therapy.

My clients describe me as a compassionate, warm, patient and non-judgmental therapist. Let's work together to find solutions that work for you! Contact me for a free 15 minute session to see if we're a good fit.

When marriages fail, it is not increasing conflict that is the cause. It is decreasing affection and emotional responsiveness... Sue Johnson
