PROFESSIONAL SCOPE
Trust includes knowing what a service does and does not provide.
Within scope
Confidential counselling and psychoeducation for individual adults experiencing grief, difficult life transitions or sustained emotional pressure, and for married couples seeking healing, stronger communication and a more enriched relationship.
Outside scope
Psychiatric treatment, medical diagnosis, medication advice, court-ordered assessment and forensic evaluation are not offered.

If another type of care would be safer or more appropriate, Sharlene will explain that clearly and discuss referral options.

Counselling is a collaborative process. Sharlene will help you make sense of what you are carrying, notice patterns, strengthen coping and decide on realistic next steps. There is no promised timetable or guaranteed result.
