At my first appointment, I found Tanis to be empathetic, supportive, and an excellent listener. This continued in subsequent appointments, as we worked through some difficult issues, with her guiding me in the process. I liked how she balanced being supportive with also asking probing questions, and giving solid next steps. She is thoughtful in her responses. I appreciate her Christian perspective. I saw a dramatic improvement in my personal life within a couple of appointments, so it is well worth the money. I encourage anyone who is struggling with issues in their lives to contact Tanis.

I have been hesitant for years to seek Counselling even though I knew I should because I was sure a total stranger wasn't going to be able to understand me or help me. Within a half hour of being with Tanis I felt confident that progress could be made and now after several appointments I am so pleased with my decision and how much Tanis has helped me. She has a calm, non-judgemental attitude and her years of experience translates in her therapy. I would not hesitate to recommend Tanis to someone struggling.

Tanis has helped me navigate a difficult conflict in my marriage. She has offered support, guidance, coping, and self care suggestions. As well she has suggested excellent resources to read. It took me a while to find someone that understood by complex interpersonal conflict. She has helped me and as a result my physical and mental health has improved. She is a skilled professional with a passion for what she does and this really resonates when you are sitting across from her in your counselling sessions. And she laughs at my jokes.

Words of Hope Counselling has provided my husband and I with the tools necessary to have a loving, communicative relationship. We went to see Tanis while on the verge of separation, unable to communicate with each other. Tanis has helped us come together and work with each other as a team and to find the love we previously had for each other.
Tanis has truly helped our marriage and we will forever be appreciative for the counselling she has given us.

We always leave counselling feeling a little more confident there is hope for our marriage. After seeing Tanis on a prolonged basis and working hard to make some definite changes, our family is reaping the rewards. We will continue to see Tanis on a regular basis because we trust her advice and appreciate her honesty.
