Are you searching for a compassionate and experienced provider who truly understands the complexities of life?

At Healing Winds Counselling & Wellness, I offer a unique therapeutic practice for adult individuals shaped through rich lived experience and well over a decade of professional counselling practice. I am a NIHB Approved Mental Health Provider, and I accept most extended health benefits.

I also specialize in the support of diverse populations through a range of concerns, including grief, trauma, and mental health challenges.

My journey into social work has been profoundly influenced by my own diverse lived experiences, which have deepened my understanding of the complexities people face. These experiences allow me to connect with clients in a way that is authentic, compassionate, and grounded in genuine empathy.

My practice is rooted in trauma-informed, anti-oppressive, and culturally responsive approaches. I recognize that each person's story, identity, and experiences are unique, and I strive to create a space where clients feel safe, respected, and understood. My expertise in de-escalation, crisis intervention, and conflict resolution creates a safe and supportive environment for all clients.
