About Me
Hi, I'm Deneen. Originally from Winnipeg, Manitoba, my family and I relocated to Surrey, BC in 2005. With four adult and teenage children, plus two dogs, our home is always bustling. I have spent many years homeschooling all my children, as well, I have worked with many other children, teens, and families. Seeing family relationships thrive is my passion, which is why I decided to become a child and family therapist. Drawing from my personal journey and rich experience, I offer tailored counselling services for individuals, families, and children, including specialized parent consulting. I look forward to helping you find a path in which to move forward in your life and relationships.
Fun fact: The photos on this site were taken by my eldest son during our family holiday on Gabriola Island, BC in 2023 - so special ❤️
