Calgary Counsellor and Professional Social Worker
I hold a Masters Degree in Social Work. Certified in Adult Education, Meditation instructor and too many workshops, readings, training to count. While the education I received was worthwhile, what has given me wisdom is experience. I have been practicing for almost 2 decades beginning with child welfare, moved into training other social workers, eventually leaving that world altogether. I moved to Calgary and began working in a non-profit for one year, moved to an EAP provider then left for a combination of private practice and some teaching on the side. Something was missing from my work and it was unfulfilling and admit I didn’t know what that missing link was….. that is until now.
That disillusionment led me to do more and more learning by going within and learning about myself. While a painful process I emerged from that pain wiser and more effective working with people than ever before. Now I’m ready to share with anyone who wants to rework themselves to live their best self.
You are not alone and everyone needs help at times. Call and book an appointment and remember, don’t give up.

Planning an event that needs some ideas and strategies on healthy relationships (intimate, workplace, family/friends and self), co-parenting or blending families? Why not get a group together and have me come in to give you some tips and strategies on optimizing the experience for your children?
Getting a group together will minimize the cost to everyone. I can do a simple speaking request or maybe you want a small workshop. Call or email at the link on my page.
I am currently working on a writing project that is taking so much time. In the meantime I am not accepting any new one to one sessions.
I will however do speaking engagements and talks to groups.
Blessings, Donna
Being married to and working alongside a business owner I can say we help each other immensely. He helps me understanding the business, what is profitable or not, how many sessions I need to do to earn a certain amount of money.
On the other hand I helped him understand that people run businesses. In those conversations I have helped him with understanding that leading by example matters in how he handles inevitable obstacles with employees, why balancing work/life is so important for his business, learning how to gain the trust of employees and motivating people to rally behind your vision. We stood together hand in hand helping him begin and grow his business.
All that to say we help each other. Should your start up business or midsize company find itself in need of a culture development or change in the culture, contact me.
