Professionals
Kintsugi Companions understands this dynamic and seeks to journey with the individual, as a companion, toward that desired future. The companionship is about discovering those answers together in a way that the person might not be able to for himself or herself. When the answers are not evident, the journey together is in seeking. As much is learnt in the seeking as in the finding.
Why ‘companion’ and not counsellor or coach or therapist? The word ‘companion’ is comprised of two words, ‘com’ and ‘pan’. ‘Com’ is to be with, ‘pan’ is the French word for bread. Hence literally translated, a companion is one you share bread (life) with.
Therapy or coaching sessions are by appointment only.
To schedule an appointment, please email counsellor@kintsugicompanions.com
