Who we are
“abri” (French- “shelter”, from “abriter”- to shelter, to shield).
The story of who ABRI is and how we came to be is an interesting and unique one... Our founding partners came from different paths and have different credentials in mental health practice: A Counselling Psychologist here, and a few caring Registered Counsellors there. For many years we laboured in our individual professional lives- in hospitals and clinics, NGOs and schools, from young to old- treating people in need of help. The down hearted, the weary, those who felt unworthy, unloved, and those struggling with more serious mental health symptoms and diagnoses.
Luck and providence aligned our paths together and we discovered a true calling together: One where we strive to combine our over 3-decades of professional mental health experiences into the continued changing of lives. It is our belief that in each one of us is a longing to live healthy, fulfilling, connecting lives. It is our dream and hope that we can be there to help you professionally through whatever endeavour or struggles you find yourself in, so we can provide you with the support, perspective, guidance, treatment, or emotional and psychological healing you need.
