Hi, my name is Markus Wade 

Registered Therapeutic Counsellor/ACCT

My counselling approach is genuinely listening, not only to words, but the meaning, with understanding, compassion and kindness. The positive therapeutic relationship between a client and counsellor is everything.  I use a Humanistic-Experiential approach which nurtures openness, cultivating a deeply compassionate relationship with your inner self, and acknowledging your thoughts, feelings and desires without judgment.  

​

Working in the non-profit underserved community and private practice has provided me with a wide variety of skills working with people experiencing depression, anxiety, stress, loss/grief, trauma, relationship issues, anger, addiction, life transitions, self discovery, social anxiety, family dynamics and effective coping strategies.  We all need a safe space to explore personal and relational challenges to promote mental well being and growth.

​

On a personal note, I have journeyed around much of the world by land, meeting people in both my own country and foreign lands, to explore their ways of life and meaning, and learned that we are all a work in progress, searching and exploring our lives, one day at a time.
