About Lori-Anne

Lori-Anne Boutin-Crawford has been counselling individuals, couples, and families in BC, Canada since 2017. She is also an ordained Lutheran pastor and has been serving communities in BC since 2010. I endeavour to offer a holistic, systemic, and relational approach as clients journey towards deeper self-understanding and identify their own goals to work on their functioning. I seek to offer whole-hearted thoughtful listening with space for clients to learn and reflect upon the application of Bowen Theory in all relationship systems.
