Arnie is very disarming so you feel comfortable, relaxed and safe almost immediately when you first meet her.
She is also very patient, accommodating, transparent and passionate about her work and helping others.
I am so grateful to have found her and would recommend her to anyone thinking of exploring counselling.

Tori
When I found the life skills counselling centre and Arnie, I was at a point in my life where everything was difficult. Arnie made it very easy for me to set up my initial appointment and all appointments thereafter. I was able to schedule my appointments around my work schedule which made it very convenient for me. Working with Arnie was wonderful, I had no idea what to expect going into it but I tried to keep and open mind and Arnie instantly put me at ease. She made it very easy for me to work through all my issues and I am very grateful for that. More...

Marriage & Couples Counselling
Sometimes disagreements and disputes cannot be resolved without the help of an impartial third party. Sometimes, hurts and old emotional wounds resurface and threaten to destroy the stability of a relationship. Marriage and Couples Counselling Services - premarital and marriage enrichment counselling - are offered to develop the skills for lasting change.
Relationships
This approach to counselling helps clients understand themselves and better manage the events and people in their lives over which they have no control. Using the Traumatic Incident Reduction and Life Stress Reduction modalities, you are guided to see how past traumatic incidents affect present behaviours.
You receive help to project your best self in every relationship, whether it be a marriage, family, common-law, workplace, or business relationship. You are guided to focus on building or re-establishing trust, increasing understanding, having open communication, and reducing conflicts to improve relationships.
