Counsellor

Nancy Friesen (formerly Kearnan)

MA, C.C.C. BED, BA

I use a very client-centered approach to help clients reach their full potential. The therapeutic relationship is of utmost importance. You meet the real me without pretense and I, in turn, help you understand your authentic self. I am your biggest cheerleader and advocate yet I also challenge you to make the best choices for your optimum mental health.
I have a Bachelor of Arts Degree, a Bachelor’s Degree in Education, and a Master of Arts Degree (Counselling Psychology). I am a Registered Counsellor with the Canadian Counselling and Psychotherapy Association and also a Canadian Certified Counsellor.
