We have all been there, stuck, devastated, sad, fearful, confused, angry, unmotivated, lacking confidence and wondering how to take the next step in our lives. Sometimes the people in our lives are not there in the way we need them to be. Our past may be getting in our way or our anxiety about the future is not allowing us to live in the present. We may lack motivation, our relationships may be troubled, or we might feel at a crossroads unable to make decisions. The truth is that life does not always happen in the way we want it to happen and there is no script to help us navigate it.

I enjoy working with children, teens and adults. I have experience working with relational issues, parenting, stress, school problems, workplace stress, self-esteem, separation and divorce, grief, life transitions, ADHD, anxiety and depression. My clients and I work together to find creative and practical ideas to help them to reach their therapeutic and personal goals. I typically write down ideas and suggestions that relate to a session, and send them home with each client so that they can continue to focus on their goals and practice concrete strategies.

Watered Heart Counselling was formed to help individuals live an optimal life. We believe It is never to late to love your life. During my upbringing, I often felt insecure and overwhelmed by life. At times, I found myself feeling stuck and hopeless, searching for direction that was not always easy to find. It may come as a surprise or relief to know that feeling stuck is a common experience for all of us at some point. As human beings, we can feel anxious, uncertain, overwhelmed, vulnerable, disappointed, low in mood, hurt, traumatized, unloved and insecure

Hi & Welcome. My name is Serena Shokar (she/her), I am a Registered Social Worker (RSW) with a Masters Degree in Social Work (MSW). I am the founder of Five Rivers Counselling and Wellness Services. My practice is rooted in developing meaningful connections with my clients and co-creating a safe therapeutic space. Furthermore, I enter our time together with humility, care, and compassion. I believe that everyone deserves a personalized approach to therapy. My role is to understand who you are and your story.

Birth can be beautiful and scary. And when a birth doesn't go as planned, it can affect us in ways that we never expected. Right now, you may be staring at your newborn feeling overwhelmed by intrusive thoughts, sadness, or fear. Or maybe you’re reeling from a miscarriage, stillbirth, or TFMR, and you need someone to help carry your pain without dismissal or judgment. Or you've gotten through that first year and are dreading the end of your leave and don't know how you're going to get through the transition to work and daycare. If this is you, I can help!

I work with clients experiencing challenges in relationships, increased stress, and adjusting to change. Clients seeking to improve relationships, manage stress more effectively and adapt to change or loss in their lives will find a good fit with the services I provide. I also work with clients in areas such as improving confidence and self worth and decision making.

I work with individuals, parents, children, teens and families looking for support for a wide range of issues. I specialize in issues relating to trauma for adults and children, PTSD, adoption (I am an adoptive parent), parenting, attachment, ADHD, trauma, loss, accepting a diagnosis for you or your child, and living well with chronic disease. I also provide psychoeducational assessments.

I’m an experienced counsellor who can help you explore your fears and anxieties without feeling judged. I will help you understand present patterns of thinking and behaving, and identify those patterns which may be unhelpful, and where they originated. We can examine difficulties in making and keeping relationships and evaluate assumptions and beliefs. I offer a variety of counselling services that will nurture your spirit, help you overcome personal challenges, and allow you to achieve your individual life goals. I cater to each of my client’s personal needs in order to unlock their full potential.

My ideal client is someone who acknowledges that their life is in need of some changes. Someone who continues to make the same mistakes over due to not having any other coping mechanisms. Someone who is eager to explore their negative habits and life patterns- and someone who is willing to share/reflect on their struggles with me. My ideal client is someone who is looking for healthy coping strategies and is willing to put in the work! It is not easy- but it will be worth it, I promise you that. You are worth it!

If you're struggling with mental health, relationship, or addiction challenges, it can feel like your life is out of control and falling apart. It's not uncommon to feel overwhelmed, scared, hopeless, helpless and alone. Or to feel numb. We all experience occasional difficulties in response to life’s challenges, but there are times when we feel particularly stuck or discouraged and we need some extra support. It can be difficult to share your most private experiences with someone new, especially if those experiences have caused you shame, and we have a deep respect for those who are willing to pursue counselling.

Feeling depressed, stressed, anxious, or ongoing emotional or physiical pain. I can help. Recognizing stressors and introducing coping strategies, somatic teachings, and mindfulness into our sessions, we gradually see lasting changes in behavior, emotional regulation, cognitive restructuring & positive mind traits. My focus is not only on your immediate areas of concern. By taking into account the whole of you, we together collaborate to gently explore and be curious about deeper-rooted patterns. EMDR and other somatic treatments assist us in uncovering insights into your past and aid the body in naturally healing past traumas.

Life is a gift and it's beautiful but sometimes it brings us challenges, that maybe difficult to navigate and resolve. Every life challenge has its underlying root causes. Whether they are past or present experiences. I firmly believe that nothing just happens. However, for every life challenge there is HOPE. Hope sustains us.
