Wendy Kritzer BSW MSW RSW – Martensville, Saskatchewan Office

I am a Registered Clinical Social Worker with experience working with children, youth, adults, couples, and families addressing a variety of issues. I have been in a counselling role since 2009.

I am passionate about working with children, adolescents, and adults and helping them to move forward. I will assist clients in developing and working toward goals to fulfill their personal potential. As a clinician, I believe that each person has the answers that they seek and that as the therapist, my role is to help support self-discovery, facilitate increased personal insight and work together with you to accomplish your goals, whatever they may be.
