As a skilled newcomer, I was terrified of becoming one of the many who end up being under-employed when they enter the Canadian job market. Helen worked with my husband and I to target our strategies to suit both the Canadian labour market and our interests. We are both on-track towards fulfilling careers. Helen balances expertise with strong counselling skills. As a result, she is a credible professional who genuinely demonstrates empathy too.
