I was educated at the University of Manitoba and spent eleven years earning three degrees. I learned a lot about human behavior, but over the years my clients have taught me a whole lot more. Being a spouse or partner and a mom has also been extremely educational and I feel blessed to continue learning and growing. For well over twenty years I have been a practicing Professional Counsellor or Therapist and I believe a few core things to be true. First, we all make mistakes some of which bring along many years of fall-out or implication. Second, we all need a sense of belonging, meaning and purpose. Third, happiness is a journey, not a goal or a destination. And forth, no one is more important than you are, although other people are also important (just not more important than you are). When we forgive ourselves for being imperfect and make good choices that give us the opportunity to have our basic needs met, we make it possible to experience peace and times of happiness.more...See more text
Myrna is someone that you can tell anything to, she doesn't judge you or make you feel bad. She always gives good advise and make is always gives good suggestions to help you deal with any situation that is difficult or confusing. The best thing about Myrna is that doesn't put thoughts in your head she gives suggestions and let you decided what is best for you.
Myrna creates a safe, open environment that allows me to talk without fear of being judged. She has a way of leading our conversations with thoughtful questions that allow me to discover myself rather than feeling like my therapist is telling me what to do. I highly recommend her for anyone who is looking to try out therapy. Everyone can use a friendly ear like Myrna's.
Extremely supportive and attentive therapist. She possesses exceptional listening skills and very empathetic. She creates a warm safe environment for sharing. She is trusting and supportive. Treats client’s with respect and has a willingness to help develop strategies: Doesn’t own your struggles, lets you direct your own care by letting you be your own expert. She communicates hope and optimism. I would highly recommend her to others seeking guidance.
