Adrianna Zabel

COMMUNITY PROGRAMS AND PARTNERSHIPS MANAGER

As the Community Programs and Partnerships Manager here at Peachey Counselling, Adrianna is responsible for developing, implementing and maintaining strategic programs and partnerships within the communities we serve.

Let’s get to know each other…

I believe working towards better mental health is a lifelong journey, and there is no "end" or "finish line." As an individual evolves, so does the needs of their mental health.

Mental health and well-being is not only vital to our individual health and well-being, it is crucial for our communities to thrive.

That's why we're doing our part to build a more inclusive, affirming and equitable community where everyone has the opportunity to grow forward through every phase and stage of life's challenges.

Our community outreach initiatives, programs and partnerships are dedicated to providing access to therapeutic services to as many individuals, couples, families and workplaces as we can.

We offer free mental health resources, affordable counselling, group workshops, online courses and specialized programs to address the specific needs of the communities - we proudly work and live in - along with those in marginalized populations and remote areas, who need our support.

My goal is always to be receptive, open, and an active listener. I would like people within our community to say that Peachey Counselling is a friendly, safe space that truly cares about making a difference. And, I am here to do my part.

I’m here for you.

Q&A

  • After I worked in the corporate world for a time, I realized that my real interest lied in psychology, and hence, my connection with Peachey Counselling was formed.

    I have always wanted to work in a profession that focused on helping others, which is why I chose to specialize in Human Resources during my Commerce degree. My goal is to become a mental health professional myself, similar to the therapists that we have here at Peachey Counselling.

  • I really want people to know that our team is united in our desire to help individuals from all walks of life, and we truly do care about each and every one of our clients.

  • "How liberating it is to pursue wholeness instead of perfection."

    - Morgan Harper Nichols

    The above quote is my favorite quote and the best piece of advice I’ve ever received.

    It's not about needing to achieve perfection. It's about feeling at one with yourself and who you want to be, as opposed to societies outlook on you. Making mistakes (and being imperfect) is all part of living.

Got questions? I’m here to help.
