Therapists in Winnipeg, MB

Do you find yourself acting in ways that don’t fit your values or beliefs or responding to situations in ways that seem irrational to you? Sometimes this is due to unresolved past issues and sometimes it is due to habits developed in previous life situations that are no longer useful but have not yet been changed. I can help you to get your heart and mind on the same page in order to move forward with your life goals. If trauma, depression, anxiety or chronic pain are in the way, I can provide tools to manage these and therapy to help heal the roots of these.

If you'd like help on your healing journey, you've come to the right place! Finding the right therapist for you is key. It can be a difficult process to find someone you can connect with and share on a deeper level to succeed with improving mental health, relationships and your personal goals.

Accepting new clients, both virtual and in-person. I work with both adults and adolescents in my therapy practice. Working with people has always been one of my passions as well as one of my gifts and responsibilities as an Indigenous man who seeks to walk and live Mino-Pimatisiwin (the good life). I work with people with the humility and realization that we are all responsible for our own healing and growth.

Are you tired of suffering in silence? Are you struggling to find someone who you can open up to about your mental health? I want you to know that you’re not alone. You and I can work together to discover the right coping strategies that work well for you and find ways we can minimize your symptoms. If you’re ready to start your healing journey you found the right place.

***IN PERSON AND ONLINE SESSIONS AVAILABLE. Our work has been informed by a number of different therapeutic models. In the last sixteen years we have been dedicated to integrate Narrative Ideas and Social Justice models into our practice. In those conversations that happen in our offices, people can reclaim their own preferred stories and re-define themselves by centering on stories that don't restrict their lives to the definition that the problem imposes on them. It's in the core of our work to believe that people that seeks for counselling come to it with a number of skills, beliefs, values, commitments and abilities.

For those who are struggling with their connections with themselves--anxiety, depression, trauma; or with others--marital distress, family conflict we provide a space that allows for exploration towards a better life. We value story. We love to laugh when life is funny. We aren't perfect, but we live real lives, and we work hard at our craft to give you the best experience possible. We each know the feeling of struggle, vulnerability, and that feeling of, "I don't know if I can do this. I don't know if I'm enough."

I practice within an anti-oppressive framework, using a whole-person approach. I work with individuals, couples and families to enhance personal and relationship goals. Counseling should be a collaborative process, based on goals and values of compassion and authenticity. As a holistic practitioner, I use multiple approaches in therapy, believing strongly in finding a fit, which is personal and unique to each of us. I have experience working with people who have been involved in the justice and child welfare systems, experienced childhood/adult abuse, oppression, and multiple/complex trauma, have addictions, and a wide variety of other issues.

Life's difficulties call to us to craft a story for ourselves and not just any story will do. One-size-fits-all therapy runs the risk of oversimplifying problems, ignoring injustice and social context, and putting us in boxes. I bring 20 years experience to working with youth and adults in a way that values kindness, open co-created conversation, humility, storytelling, growing the strength of our own voices, and what it looks like to 'do justice' to ourselves and others. I am highly skilled at listening to the parts of the story that matter the most and I will work closely with your goals and interests.
