Donna Brown – Counsellor

Life isn’t always easy and at one time or another, we all need some support in navigating life’s challenges. Each journey into therapy takes courage, willingness, and vulnerability. As a therapists my role is to create a safe space for each client to feel connected, to be authentically seen, heard, and understood. Within this environment we can work together towards healing from the past, understanding the present, and moving forward to create a life that you choose.
