Welcome to the Shanti Counselling Centre!
Shanti has simplified!! Over the years, we have had numerous practitioners join the team and provide amazing service to the numerous clients who have come through our doors. As the Director of the Clinic, I (Daniele) have decided to operate as a one-person Clinic. My reasoning involves bringing more balance and well-being to my life, which includes devoting more of my time and energy to my family. I will continue to provide the same quality of service… the Clinic is just a lot smaller now.
I launched the Shanti Counselling Centre in 2006 with the aim of providing service that involved holistic wellness. While the clinic no longer offers chiropractic care, massage therapy, and coaching, I still hold the value of seeing the whole person — mind, body, and spirit. The therapeutic interventions that I utilize focus on the inner workings of the mind, which directly impact one’s physical and spiritual health. Because my mission is to promote holistic wellness, I actively collaborate with other professionals in the community to ensure that clients have the resources needed to pursue optimal wellbeing.
My belief is that every human is on a journey toward optimal living and wellbeing. During this journey, however, everyone faces unique obstacles throughout the lifespan that interfere with their natural ability to manage emotions and/or solve problems. My aim is to help clients find their innate ability to manage their emotions & relationships, and ignite their problem-solving abilities.
I invite you to look over the website to discern, for yourself, if The Shanti Counselling Centre may be of help to you on your journey.
Shanti Counselling Centre is based out of Vancouver and Squamish, BC. Services are offered to residents of British Columbia, Alberta, and the Northwest + Yukon Territories via Zoom.
What is counselling?
Many people are of the assumption that counselling is about getting advice from a therapist. Though there are some counselors who may utilize this approach, at The Shanti Counselling Centre we are of the belief that making a decision about a life problem is not as easy as advice-giving.
Who needs it?
We all struggle with life problems and anyone can benefit from counselling. The human journey is complex and sometimes the support and/or listening ear of a friend or family member is not enough -- the people close to you may not be "objective" or may not have the skills necessary to help you get deep into an issue.
