August 4, 2017 By Recovery From Addiction Online

SheenaSheena has recently joined Recovery From Addiction as our trainee counsellor.

She is currently studying for a Masters in Counselling through Monash University, Australia, and aims to have completed her studies by early 2018.

Her own experience with anxiety and depression allows her to bring a deep non-judgmental understanding and empathy to her client work . She helps to empower clients by addressing the limiting beliefs and emotional difficulties that  prevent them moving forward to a better life.

Sheena is currently based in Ottawa, Canada, where she lives with her husband and two children.
