About Suzannah, RCC
The first years of my career were spent as a registered massage therapist. Alongside that work there always existed an abiding interest in the wholeness and holiness of this human experience. I accompany clients on their unique journey, helping them discover their authentic processes and meaning.
My passion is supporting those who seek to live congruently with ease, clarity, empowerment, joy and presence. I walk beside adults as they honour mind, body and spirit and come to know their own gifts, strengths, options and resources. Insight and transformation are the fruits of this process and they never cease to amaze me!
It is in the shelter of others that people live.

Psychological Influences includ Brené Brown, Peter A. Levine, Jon Kabat-Zinn, Gabor Maté, Kristin Neff, Richard Schwartz and Bessel van der Kolk.

Cycling and hiking are two of the great joys of life! Miss Millie, my 12 year old Labrador, and I enjoy getting out to explore beautiful Vancouver Island together.
