Anita Berg-Pratt
B. Ed., M. Ed, M. Counselling
I believe in creating balance between the physical, emotional, mental, social, and spiritual elements that define who we are. I value an integrative approach to counselling with a strong foundation built on humanistic, family of origin and client-centered principles. In practice this means my energy is directed toward building a relationship based on empathy, positive regard, and genuineness. My aim is to always provide an environment where clients feel safe, respected, and valued.
