You're not stuck because you're weak or confused.You're stuck because nobody has asked the right questions yet.
01 — What this is
Most people arrive to our walks carrying the same thing in three different directions. A decision they've replayed a hundred times. A relationship that's stuck. A situation where everyone has an opinion.
One hour with Andrea changes that.
Not because she tells you what to do. Because she helps you hear what you already know.
02 — Who this is for
You're smart. You're capable. You've talked to your friends, maybe your therapist, maybe your journal. And you're still spiralling.
"Sometimes intelligent people get stuck in emotionally complicated situations." - Andrea
That's not a character flaw.
That's what happens when you need sharp outside perspective from someone with no stake in the outcome — someone with enough distance to see what the people closest to you can't, and asks the questions no one else has thought to ask.

andrea@andrealarochelle.com04 — Andrea
I've spent more than two decades sitting with people in the hardest, messiest moments of their lives — and helping them find their footing again.
What I do best is listen. Closely. Carefully. Without an agenda. I ask the questions you haven't quite asked yourself yet, and I notice the things you've stopped letting yourself notice.
Most people leave a walk saying some version of the same thing: She asked one question that completely changed how I was looking at the situation.
Local + referral-based.
Walk + Talk: 2231 Longridge Drive SW (North Glenmore Park Community Centre parking lot). Walks take place on safe, public City of Calgary paved paths.

"I had no idea what to expect. A friend just told me I should book a walk with Andrea. And am I ever glad I did. It's almost as if she'd known me for years but she'd just met me. I left our first walk with insights I didn't know were possible"
How I work
- In person only. Every conversation happens on the walk. Nothing is recorded. Nothing is documented.
- Not a witness. I do not write letters, testify, participate in legal matters, or communicate with third parties.
- No email or text support. I don’t offer texting, emailing, or ongoing support between walks. The hour is the work.
- Not therapy. Not crisis work.. If you're in crisis or need clinical support, I'll happily point you toward someone who can help.
- One session at a time. No retainers. No packages. No pressure. Book another walk if and when it feels useful..
