Todos lideamos con inseguridades, pero algunas circunstancias de la vida ponen esta condición humana al frente de nuestra experiencia, creando estres y baja autoestima. Capas problemas pasados no resueltos están provocando una autocrítica excesiva, o te has dado cuenta de que has estado viviendo de acuerdo con los estándares de otra persona y no sabes cómo conectarte con tu sentido de valor e identidad. Tal vez, has estado cargando el dolor de relaciones tóxicas o rechazo. Estas dinámicas interpersonales pueden ser muy dañinas y crear una sensación de confusión sobre qué creer y en quién confiar.

As my mentors have helped me in my life, and as they have guided me through difficult points of self-growth and reflection, I have come to learn the value of being there for others to progress through our own difficult times. We need each other. I do believe it is far less problematic to overcome challenges with guidance and direction. Even more so when that guidance is refined through education, experience, and a standardized expectation of practice. I am capable of direct billing for ICBC and CVAP and can be accepted through other insurance agencies (i.e. Sunlife, BlueCross, GreenShield)
