Abbotsford, BC | Eterna Counselling & Wellness Inc.

Do you light up when you see a child's confidence grow or a teen find their voice?

Are you the kind of therapist who embraces your quirks, values authenticity over perfection, and believes therapy can be both deeply meaningful and human?

If so - you might be our kind of person.

At
Eterna Counselling & Wellness
, we're a team that leads with heart. We show up for our clients and for each other. We laugh, we collaborate, we learn together, and we hold space for the messy and the beautiful parts of this work. We believe therapy is an act of courage, and that excellence doesn't mean perfection - it means showing up with integrity, curiosity, and care.
