  Member Snapshot

Lee Lordeaux, MSW
 

Social Worker in Private Practice
Vancouver

I use Narrative Therapy, working particularly with people with addictive behaviours. I’ve helped clients with diverse problems, from couples in conflict to obsessions and compulsions. For self-care, I turn to meditation, spiritual reading, yoga and biking. I am deeply thankful whenever BCASW  bends a legislator's ear, or protests unconscionable budget cuts, or provides a voice for our marginalized groups, especially those facing poverty every day.
