Mary Manson, MCS, MA

Counsellor

Office: Burlington, Guelph


Almost all of us, at some point, come face-to-face with something too big to manage on our own. Fortunately, we are designed to help each other. Bayridge is a collection of people who are not only specially trained to help, but who truly enjoy the process of opening up hope, new skills, self-awareness and fresh possibilities for people.

There is always a way out of emotional pain, brokenness and paralysis. Always.

Mary has been a high school teacher, a therapist, a free lance writer and a university professor. She received her undergraduate degree from the University of Western Ontario and her graduate degrees in Spiritual Direction/Christian Theology and Counselling Psychology from the University of British Columbia. She works with people to restore relationships, establish identity, set and achieve goals, understand and negotiate conflict, overcome addictions, obsessions or depression, heal and rebuild lives, deal with spiritual crises and loss - and basically move through whatever difficulty is obstructing a happy healthy life.

Mary believes that people have profound resources inside of them that sometimes get squished, trapped, stifled or buried. Given the opportunity, in an environment of warmth and acceptance, we can all develop the skills to become better human beings with a genuine capacity for joy, love, hope and delight.

Life is good. It is worth giving yourself the chance to know that.
