Our Story
Curtis and Bettina met when Bettina starting volunteering with Vancouver Coast Health in 2011. Curtis was a co-facilitator of the Aftercare Group run through the Vancouver Regional Program for Complex Concurrent Disorders.
Curtis quickly became a mentor to Bettina, even writing her a recommendation when she applied to graduate school and later becoming her supervisor when she started her Clinical Practicum.
The two decided to join forces and start their own private practice once she had completed her studies. Through their hard work and determination their dream has now become a reality.
