"It is not an understatement to say she dramatically changed my life for the better."
​
"I was connected to Melissa through my workplace EAP when I reached out at my breaking point over numerous life stresses that I felt I could no longer juggle. It is not an understatement to say she dramatically changed my life for the better. Her compassion and knowledge base allowed me to uncover and address previous traumas in my life, some from decades ago, to ultimately lead a much happier and healthier life. She was able to help me shift my entire outlook on life and better understand my own emotions and why I react to stress the way that I was.
 
I've tried a half dozen counsellors over the past 5-10 years and have never been able to break the chains of my past until I got paired with Melissa. I am forever grateful for how she freed me from the past and I have never been more excited for the future. I didn't use to believe it when struggling years earlier, when I was told you will know when you have connected with a great counsellor, as I never had much luck before her, but it's true.
 
If you are looking to let go of past traumas and live a happier life, give Zenful Counselling a try. My only regret is that I didn't find it earlier. Thanks!"

- Trauma and Stress Counselling Client

"I had never been to a counsellor before so I was very pleased that my first experience was with Melissa. Why? Because she provided me a non-judgmental and comfortable atmosphere that allowed me to feel open and relaxed. Melissa listened with positive intent and then guided our session with a variety of techniques, strategies, and motivation that greatly helped me with my journey. Thank you Melissa!"

“If you're looking for a retreat to help you start healing and transforming, I would highly recommend this one.”
​
"I had the absolute pleasure of attending the Zenful retreat in July. It was a life-changing experience. From the moment I arrived, I felt welcome and at home. Melissa is the real deal. She is the most authentic, friendly, and compassionate person and has helped me in so many ways I could not have imagined. The property is absolutely gorgeous - so private and peaceful in nature on a beautiful lake. The sessions were outstanding. The agenda was thoughtfully prepared and one session built on the next. There was just the right amount of  alone time to enjoy the peace and quite and truly reflect on the day. Melissa thought of everything to make it a memorable weekend including the fantastic food.
 
I feel like I've spring boarded well into my personal healing and growth. I have so much more clarity on what's been holding me back and what I need to do going forward.
 
If you're looking for a retreat to help get you on track, to start healing, and transforming, I would highly recommend this one. You won't regret it - you are worth it! I will forever be grateful for this amazing experience. Thank you, thank you, Melissa!!"
