A grounded place to land.
What I Offer:
Counselling Services
Honouring the whole person — spirit, heart, mind, and body — I offer counselling and art therapy grounded in Indigenous ways of knowing and strength. I hold a safe, culturally respectful space where clients of all ages are welcomed with compassion and curiosity. Together we draw on ancestral strengths, community teachings, and practical tools to restore balance, build resilience, and nurture wellness.
Services include individual counselling, art‑based therapy, grief and loss support informed by cultural protocols, trauma‑informed care, and family or caregiver consultation. Sessions are guided by each person’s path and needs, weaving creative expression, storywork, and grounding practices such as breath, land‑based awareness, and ceremony when desired. This approach supports emotional healing, identity and belonging, and the health of relationships.
I walk alongside clients to set realistic goals, honour personal and cultural strengths, and strengthen sovereignty and self‑determination through life transitions — supporting healing that is relational, rooted, and regenerative.
Accessible in-person and virtual appointments. Confidential, client-centred care guided by ethical standards and cultural humility.
Art Therapy
I offer individual and group art therapy gatherings rooted in Indigenous ways of knowing and healing. Through the senses, hands-on creative materials, movement, storytelling, and reflective practice, people are invited to honour and express thoughts and feelings that words alone may not hold. These practices support releasing tension and emotions held in the body, restoring balance, and strengthening relational, spiritual, emotional, and mental wellbeing. Together we cultivate practical problem-solving, deeper insight into our life pathways, increased self-awareness and self-respect, reduced stress, and healthier connections to ourselves, our families, and our communities. Sessions are guided with cultural humility, ceremony where appropriate, and respect for each person’s ancestral teachings and strengths.
Event/Group Support
I provide culturally grounded counselling and debriefing support for community gatherings, conferences, and trainings that may be intense, retraumatizing, or complex. Rooted in Indigenous ways of knowing, my presence offers relational care, emotional safety, and trauma-aware holding for individuals and the collective. I collaborate with organizers to hold space that supports wellness, cultural integrity, and the long-term well-being of participants and the host community, and I offer staff debriefing sessions to process impacts, reduce vicarious trauma, and build ongoing support.
