Barrier Free
Your counselling sessions can be accessed from the comfort of your own home using OnCall Health, a safe and secure online platform. This system is open to anyone across BC and some other parts Canada. Those who live in remote, or small communities, those with difficulty leaving their homes, parents who don’t need one more reason to find a babysitter can now easily access caring support.
Technical Insights
You don’t have to worry about explaining screening results, fertility appointments, or testing rationales. You will work with a counsellor who understands the complicated information from your medical history, which can increase your sense of being seen, understood, and connected.
You are not alone in this challenging time in your life
Through counselling you will develop a better relationship with yourself, allowing you to move through your life with more purpose and clarity.
You will become a more effective parent, a happier partner, and derive more satisfaction from all your relationships in your life journey.
You will practice techniques that will help you discover more resilience and more joy. This process aims to increase your capacity to experience a full range of emotions which will, in turn, give you more freedom to pursue actions that are in line with your values.
Hello I’m Monica
Emotional well being is fundamental to our lives, and can be learned and practiced with a little bit of guidance. Just like learning a new instrument or mastering a second language you can develop a whole new way of joyful, free living.
I admire you for having the wisdom to contemplate this journey and this kind of learning. It can be uncomfortable at first, and that’s okay. The fact you’ve come forward shows your emotional intelligence.
I have 16 years of experience working with individuals and families in public health care settings as a genetic counsellor, and in private homes as a doula and a lactation counsellor. I really care, and have a genuine desire to help. With the ingrained habits of a trained scientist, and a drive to understand the heart and mind through mindfulness philosophy, I approach your path towards emotional well being holistically, and with evidence based techniques.
