Welcome to Still Waters
The name Still Waters comes from the Hebrew phrase “Mai Menuchot,” meaning restful waters—a place of peace, safety, and renewal. This image captures the heart of what Still Waters is intended to be: a gentle space to pause, reflect, and find rest amid life’s changing currents.
A place of calm. A place of care. A place to breathe again.
As I continue my training in counselling, I’m learning that healing often begins in these quiet places — in moments of stillness where we can listen with curiosity, extend compassion to ourselves, and allow growth to unfold naturally.
Here, you’ll find reflections and resources that invite calm for the mind and hope for the heart. My hope is that Still Waters becomes a place where you feel encouraged to slow down, take a deep breath, and rediscover the peace that restores.
Interested in Counselling Services?
I am completing my practicum at Botten Psychological Services in Grande Prairie, Alberta and can see clients ages 12 and up, in person or virtually, from Alberta at this time.
