Meet Our Team
Kim Kendall, RCC, BCRPT
I am the Founder and Director of Achieve Balance Counselling. I understand that it can be hard to decide to look for counselling for yourself and/or your child and I am so glad that you have found us.
I’m a Registered Clinical Counsellor, BC Registered Play Therapist, Certified Synergetic Play Therapist, and a Certified Neuroscience and Satir in the Sand Tray Therapist. I love to learn and so am currently working towards becoming a BCACC Approved Clinical Supervisor, as well as working towards completing a two-year Somatic Attachment Training.
Sydney Gruenhage
Sydney is our newest team member who will be joining us starting May 20th, 2024.
Sydney is a Junior Associate Counsellor and is available to see children, youth, families, parents & couples.
I am eager to walk with my clients through the messiness of life and pursue growth, self-discovery, and curiosity. I aim to cultivate an open space of safety, acceptance, creativity, and warmth in the therapy room where connection can thrive. I believe the body tells our story and true healing often begins when working from the ground up. I hope to provide an embodied practice where people feel truly seen and heard. I believe counselling can be more than sitting in a chair and exchanging words. It is alive. It can be experiential and creative. It can be loud and quiet all at the same time.
