I believe connections are the most important part of the human experience. Connections with the self, with others, with nature – all connections are crucial to wellness. It is from this perspective that I approach therapeutic practice. Together, we can work towards a holistic and personally meaningful approach to your wellness and growth. I take a relational approach to narrative and collaborative therapies, and regularly incorporate
art
-based interventions with those who are interested and could benefit from this approach.

Counsellor, BA, BSW, RSW, DKATI

Offering both counselling and
art therapy
services my vision for the therapeutic space is one of safety, empathy, and respect. Anxiety, climate anxiety, depression, past traumas, conflict in relationships, and addiction are all experiences that can lead to us feeling isolated and alone. The therapeutic process aides in alleviating these feelings and brings into consciousness a new awareness of self, the world, and how one walks through life.
Art Therapy
combines the creative process and psychotherapy, facilitating self-exploration and understanding.

Art
is used in sessions to express emotions, gain new insight and practice coping skills in real time.
If you want an approach that moves beyond talk therapy, a way to look at familiar patterns in new ways and an opportunity to connect to your creative side - then
art therapy
could be for you. I operate with the understanding that everyone is the expert on their own lives and that our time together is a journey of self-discovery and movement towards change. Challenging emotions and situations are explored in unique, creative & compassionate ways. Our time together will relieve stress levels, heals old wounds, and produces subtle and lasting changes.

art
and play to engage children, teens and young adults in the process of healing. Our goal is to use the process of
art
making during sessions to explore the challenges and process distressing emotions in a healthy way.

makes difficult things easier to talk about; it can help increase self-awareness, teach emotional regulation, manage anxiety and navigate challenges such as bullying, divorce, identity, illness, diagnoses and more.
Abigail Wideman
Clinical Social Work/Therapist, BSW, MSW, RSW
Verified
My intention in therapy is to keep it meaningful and simple; that each person walks away with something practical that can be used right away to ameliorate suffering for yourself and in your relationships. Being a creative person, there is rarely a session without some incorporation of
art
, play, or experiential technique. I aim to be a facilitator of healing, facilitator meaning “to make easy”. What better way to make something easy then through fun and creativity? Prior to licensing as a therapist I worked in leadership. I have a passion for burnout prevention, compassion fatigue, and the working wounded.

As a registered Circle of Security Parenting program facilitator, I integrate play and
art therapy
in helping parents to restore emotional security with their kids.
"Why me? Why do I need to feel the pain?" Most of my clients asked some similar questions at the beginning of their therapy. They may be disconnected from others and being isolated. Therapy can offer them opportunities to make sense of their experiences, understand more about how things had happened, and rebuild relationships among themselves and others. During the therapeutic journey, my clients may take different perspectives to make sense of their experiences and learn new life skills to cope with their distress. They may feel more comfortable feeling uncomfortable and able to make new choices.

You are strong and resilient in taking this first step to care for yourself. You may be tired of feeling the way you do and are ready for change. You want to enjoy the life you live and the key to this is to enjoy the relationships you have, including the one with yourself.

I use interventions rooted in
art
, play, and adventure therapy, which are utilized to allow for self expression in ways that are fun and engaging.
Do you know a child or youth who is experiencing behavioural, emotional, or developmental challenges? If so, I can help! Traditional talk therapy can be intimidating, especially for young people. Using experiential approaches, I walk beside my clients as they recognize the power they hold to create wellness in their lives, experience growth, and reach their full potential. Allowing young people to be creative throughout the therapeutic process enables us to see the world through their eyes, which I believe is an essential part of assisting them overcome the challenges in their lives.

I help my clients address the unresolved symptoms of relational trauma. These symptoms might include feeling mistrustful or on edge around others, anger that feels out of control, feelings of anxiety and shame, or finding oneself triggered all. the. time. The symptoms vary, but the fallout is usually the same: disconnection from self and from others. This disconnection can impact one’s outlook on life, contribute to poor decision making, trigger physical pain, and negatively impact interpersonal relationships.
