David Siegel Memorial Fund

David served as a volunteer counsellor with the Centre after graduating from the Volunteer Counsellor Training Program in 1992. We have partnered with Pagliacci's to establish this fund to honour David by underwriting the 24/25 Volunteer Counsellor Training Program. Thank YOU for honouring David Siegel in this way.

what our clients are saying...

“She was very insightful and wise, accepting of me and my process, creatively encouraging me to examine my feelings and attitudes and beliefs. She coached me through a major life transition.”
"My counsellor validated me and my views in surprising ways. The effects were healing and helped reaffirm wayward faith in the process of self realization. I was treated with dignity even though I could not afford to pay much for sessions. Many thanks.”
“It was extremely helpful in that I could express anything on my mind and have not only an educated response but a response I could relate to. His interest and openness to my ‘radical’ ideas was helpful. He could also communicate with me in an intellectual level.”
“After every session I felt like he gave me the right key for one of my locked doors. I have the key right now. I am able to unlock them if I really want to.”

“We believe that our greater community is a happier, healthier place
when quality counselling is available – for everyone.”
