Born on the prairies, Susanna has lived on Vancouver Island for over thirty years, raising her sons and expanding her education. Graduating first as a secondary school teacher, then as a clinical counsellor, she currently maintains a small private practice while working full time as an elementary school counsellor. Rooted early in a personal faith in Christ, Susanna discovered the liturgical church in her late twenties and has worshipped as an Anglican since that time. Across her adulthood, her focus within the Body has been centered in pastoral care, with prayer, teaching, and counselling her call and passion. Happily rooted in Victoria with her husband, Thomas, Susanna finds deep joy in her family, her work, and a life spent in service to her Lord.
