Suzanne Tiemstra (She/Her), Counselling Therapist
Kaleidoscope Counsellor
Hi, I have been a high school counsellor for over 25 years up and down this province - from small farming towns and bedroom communities to the city of Calgary. Each came with different teachings and challenges. What never changed was creating strong connection to students, parents, and staff. . . meeting them where they were at and providing information, supports, and encouragement to DO and BE!
When I decided to start my transition to private practice and wind down my school counsellor role; I knew immediately what I wanted to name my counselling practice ‘Kaleidoscope’. Check my online page to discover my 'why'.
