 Jessie
Herringer, Addictions
Counsellor
jessie.herringer@necs.bc.ca
I have a bachelors degree in Education as well as Social
Work. I have been an Addictions Counsellor at Dawson Creek
Counselling Services since 1999. Prior to counselling I
taught art in the school system in Saskatoon, Saskatchewan for
four years. I enjoy this job because of the challenges it
offers and the interesting people I have the privilege of working
with.
The field of addictions is always evolving and I continue to learn
from my colleagues and clients whose determination and strength
never cease to move me.
