My name is Susan Anderson. I am a certified Canadian counsellor registered with the Canadian Counselling and Psychotherapy Association. My interest and practice focuses on helping people deal with pain associated with past trauma, suicide bereavement and suicidality.
For the past 20+ years I have provided counselling for families, couples, and individuals. Suicide can happen in the best of families, and the more we can talk openly and compassionately about it, the better the chance for healing. Drawing from suicide research and from my experience I believe it is possible to heal from suicidal pain. |
I live in Edmonton AB, Canada. I schedule appointments with clients either by telephone and/or online by zoom.
