Times of change are hard. They require high levels of support and self care.


Challenging times, whether born of excitement or crisis, confront deeper need for change and growth.


We naturally resist change. Just prior to a new life chapter, circumstances can be painful to navigate.


With loving support this can also be a healing time, even a creative period of renewal and regeneration.


Before authentic change can occur however, you may first need to connect more fully to who you are, what you feel and what you authentically need and desire before expanding into your next life story more effectively.

Counselling supports individuals and couples to navigate these changes with care, reassurance and awareness. As you step more fully into the life you desire receive the support you deserve.


Learning to ask for help is often the first step…


How it works...


You will initially meet Robert for twenty minutes by phone or in person, free of charge, to determine if this counselling relationship is a good fit for you. In order to get the most out of your counselling experience you are encouraged to commit to eight to ten sessions. (Shorter term counselling is available upon request).


During our time together you will receive and gently practice the skills and tools needed to make the changes you require. With your self-discovering insights you will find the motivation you need to succeed.


Each session is on a sliding scale of $85-120 + HST.

Robert Birch, M.A. is a nurturing, deeply empathic counselor, a respected social educator, and a gifted group facilitator. He has over twenty five years of professional experience in helping people live more satisfying, soulful lives.


Using a unique variety of gentle techniques including archetypal psychology, muscle testing, and other creative and expressive modalities Robert greatly assists clients to identify the specific mental, emotional, physical and, at times, generational blocks that can impact health, personal and/or professional relationships that often deplete the motivation for constructive change.


He is highly skilled at guiding people to break past, unhealthy agreements within themselves, transform painful experiences into personal wisdom and ultimately forge ahead into new, health-inducing, creative initiatives.



Robert also offers phone sessions that fit your busy schedule.
