Welcome to East Sooke Counselling!
Connect to a life of love, passion, and vitalityGrow your inner wisdom and unique purpose
Thrive in your relationships and in life!
East Sooke Counselling is grounded in the philosophy that healthy relationships - to oneself, others, and a larger whole - are at the core of a vibrant and fulfilled life.
As a transpersonal psychotherapist, I operate from a compassionate belief in the potential of the human spirit.
Within every struggle is an opportunity waiting to be unearthed, whether we are aware of it at the time or not.
Understanding this is one thing, but seeing it and believing it is another. When we are out of sync or alignment within ourselves or in relationships, we can feel a kind of 'stuckness'. Some people would define it as feeling unsettled or frustrated, and others would say they feel anxious, or even depressed.
What can you do if you find yourself stuck?
At East Sooke Counselling, I provide a safe, supportive, confidential therapeutic space for individuals and couples to explore the feelings and beliefs that make up the ‘stuckness’. At the same time, I support you to align with healthy new ways of seeing and being.
It is our birthright to live a life of peace, connection and vitality. My therapeutic approach is designed to help you shift what seem like 'boulders on your path', into 'stepping stones'.
This experience is the foundation for miracles to occur in your relationships and your life!
I look forward to connecting with you.

"Sarah believes in people – it’s that simple. When clients' faith in themselves are at a low ebb, Sarah holds on to the truth about them, loving them until they are ready to love themselves again. Sarah helps clients to remember that wherever they find themselves in their current struggle, this is only the middle. She shines a light on the end as she walks with her clients towards their life goals. She helps clients to connect within to all of who they are so that they can become their own best friend in life.
Sarah is a warm and loving woman with a generous heart. She holds space for clients so that they feel accepted and loved no matter how difficult or messy their current struggle might be. Her faith in the magnificence of the human spirit is unwavering and it is this philosophy which makes her unique in the counselling profession.
Sarah’s approach to love and relationship counselling is essential. We need more counsellors like her who can hold on to hope when our own might fail. In times like these, counsellors who are walking the walk towards their own goals and dreams are indispensable.
Sarah is one such counsellor."
