About us

Certified in: life coaching, cognitive behavioural therapist, special education, nutrition & hydration and fitness instructor.

Reece has rare day to day life experience in taking care of and developing independence, self esteem, self love, self worth and self acceptance in his older brother who has autism (ASD). As a result, his older brother doesn’t feel ladled by his disability and has full awareness of his autism, behaviours, strengths, weaknesses and has a purpose in his music performing at home, for kids at daycare’s and throughout lower British Columbia living a fulfilling life.

Through that experience and 12 years working for multiple companies as a support worker, personal life coaching practice and volunteering for Special Olympics British Columbia Reece can connect and develop those same skills in men and woman who have physical/mental disorders.

  • My daughter has special needs, an intellectual disability, as well as autism, and A.D.H.D., anxiety and behavior issues as well.  She is currently 29 years old.   Reece is able to get her motivated, which can be very difficult to do.  She can be very irritable and gets easily distracted.  He keeps her focused and on track, and provides her exercises and ideas to handle difficult situations.  They work together in the gym focusing on cardio, stretch and strength, and training in the pool.  This type of training helps relieve her of her anxieties, and calm down her over thinking, and unwind.  He has also helped her with bus training, and learning her way around the city for employment purposes.  As well as bus training, he has helped her employment with skill training, and first aid training,

  • Our son's mental and physically health has improved vastly under the guidance of Reece. He now has a deeper understanding on how to "label" his feelings and not act out on "impulse" when making healthier choices with his mind and body. Easing my son's fears over new processes and fears of the "unknown" has calm him tremendously and in addition, his critical thinking skills has grown as well! Reece has been part of our family for a long time and we feel its vitally important to have him continue to work with our son for an unspecified period of time. We would highly recommend Reece to anyone looking for quality and trustworthy respite care! Forever grateful parents Judy and George Chin

  • Reece supervises and helps Graham apply strategies to monitor and deal with anxiety and communication skills related to unexpected events when out and about in the community, and when interacting with people on public transit. Reece is a fully competent and capable individual who has a wealth of knowledge to share with Graham, and has proven to be Graham’s close ally in navigating life with numerous disabilities. I would highly recommend Reece as a Behavioural and Life Support worker, or any other capacity to support individuals with diverse needs.
