Therapists in Manitoba

Are you struggling due to challenges around unhealed trauma, infertility, pregnancy loss, a challenging birth or post partum experience, anxiety or depression? Are you tired of feeling overwhelmed and are longing to feel some joy in your life? Are you exhausted and feel like no one really gets what you have been through and how it feels? Are you longing to feel peace in your life? Are you wanting to explore your struggles in a safe supportive space? Are you ready to tap back into hope and trust that things can get better? If so, you are not alone and I can help.

When it comes to personal growth I believe that we all have the capacity to feel whole and lead fulfilling lives despite the struggles we experience. In fact, I believe we can grow to accept our life experiences and challenges as opportunities to recognize and refine our unique strengths. I support individuals looking to develop more self-awareness, heal trauma, incorporate healthier coping habits, and gain more connection with their life.

When we feel overwhelmed, disconnected or stuck in survival mode we need a soft place to land; a place to regroup feeling stronger and better able to cope. Whether your story includes anxiety, trauma, chronic illness or loss let’s work together to shift unhelpful thoughts and patterns, add to your skills and let go of old pain. Within a warm, compassionate therapy relationship you can leave behind thoughts like: “I can’t cope.” “It’s my fault.” “I’m not good enough.” Hi, I'm Aveeve and I love to help people make lasting change using extensive training in effective, evidence-based therapy, a little humour and a lot of connection.

I work to support individuals in reaching mental health goals that are important to them. This involves not just helping people to reduce the difficult symptoms they may be experiencing but walking with them as they develop a deeper understanding of themselves and how they interact with their world.

Life has a way of throwing us curve balls- often when we least expect it. These transitions can be challenging to work through. My hope is for you to feel safe to be your authentic self and feel supported. We will work on having self compassion and be present with your emotions. Then we can work together to process these emotions.

Life is really hard, right? I'd love to help you through it. I am passionate about being a therapist and walking with my clients through the things they struggle with. I have a lot of experience working with clients who have experienced trauma, self-harm, suicidality, abuse, parenting challenges, and PTSD. I am queer friendly and have experience in religious trauma, as well. As a parent myself, I love to offer support to other parents and caregivers of children of all ages.

I have worked as a counsellor for over 15 years. My work is grounded in the belief that providing a safe, non-judgemental environment allows us to explore, heal and grow. I use multiple approaches including Attachment-based, Emotion-Focussed Therapy, Humanistic, Dialectical Behavioural Therapy, Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, and Active Therapy. Collaboratively, we can personalize which approach(es) work best for you. If you are interested in connecting with me, call or email me to book a free 15-minute consultation. During this consultation we can get to know one another and see if we are a good match to forward together.

My therapeutic offerings are rooted in the belief that every individual intuitively initiates a process of self-exploration and self-expression from birth. Sometimes this wisdom gets thwarted or stuck due to familial, social, situational and/or societal conditions and experiences. I believe that given the opportunity, and rooted in a foundation of empowering connection, individuals can come to align with their unique self and expressions again.

Is life feeling overwhelming or chaotic? Like after meeting all the demands of the day there isn't anything left for yourself? Reaching out for support takes courage, and the act of arriving here on this page is a bold first step. Therapy can support you to create a life that feels different. I will walk beside you as you learn to build a life that feels sustainable; one where you live in accordance with your values and priorities. Schedule a free consultation via my website.

Hello and welcome. My therapeutic approach embraces a holistic, integrative, and person-centred approach, ensuring you are always central in our collaborative journey. I am dedicated to fostering an inclusive and affirming environment, deeply valuing the wealth of diversity in its many forms. In my practice, I aim to cultivate a nonjudgmental and empathetic therapeutic connection, encouraging tailored paths to personal growth. My academic foundation includes a Bachelor’s in Human Ecology and a Master’s in Counselling Psychology, complemented by over a decade of experience in social work.

I believe that all people have the capacity to transform suffering into wisdom. My intention is to support your self-healing by providing tools for self-inquiry, awareness building, emotional healing, healthy relationships, and nervous system regulation. I strive to create a deeply nurturing and safe space from which to explore life’s challenges and work to genuinely connect with you so that counselling is customized to your unique needs and resources. I use EMDR and an integrative approach to assist with healing the past and building resiliency so that you can lead a more whole and fulfilling life.

Ready for something else? Life, and our relationships, can be messy, complicated, filled with emotions, and sometimes hard to navigate. If you seek help in making sense of your own past experiences or are ready to create new experiences (or identity) for yourself...you are in the right place.

If you're reading this, chances are you're struggling with mental health issues that are causing you distress and impacting your daily life. Whether you're dealing with overwhelm, burnout, overstimulation, lack of motivation or any combination of challenges, you can get relief from your symptoms, be happier and have a healthier life. Together, we will explore the root causes of your struggles and develop strategies to manage symptoms, build resilience, and promote lasting change. Your journey is unique, and your therapy should be tailored to your needs and experiences.

Reaching for help is a brave step. Whatever has brought you to this point, has likely taken a toll. Life stresses build up. Unresolved conflicts and traumas keep showing up and cause recurring issues. You notice patterns: the same argument, or same worry, the same relationship dynamics. Previous efforts to fix the problem have only brought temporary relief. You are tired of feeling this way, of fighting, of feeling alone... You want someone to help you get to the root of the issue and bring some lasting change and resolution. It's my honor to walk alongside you.

We all deserve to feel heard and understood, but when life gets messy our relationships can get complicated leaving us feeling anxious, uncertain, or overwhelmed. I work with couples who are struggling to feel connected, or aren’t understanding one another. I help parents feel like they understand their child’s emotional needs and how to support them while also supporting themselves in the work of being a parent. I help individuals work through stress, anxiety, loss and trauma to feel aligned with their values and goals. I work to help you feel heard, understood and supported by me, and the people in your life.

Whether you are experiencing anxiety, facing the impact of trauma, going through relationship challenges, or having emotional difficulties - you deserve to heal in a trusted environment. I provide both individual therapy and couples counselling, and my goal is to offer you a safe space where you feel seen, understood, and supported as you journey through the highs and lows of life.

Do you want a therapist that understands the importance of how culture is integral to the healing process? As an Indigenous expressive arts therapist, I believe that traditional Indigenous knowledge is as vital as Western therapeutic approaches when combined respectfully, allowing people to be at the center of their healing. Among the services provided are one-on-one therapy as well as access to wholistic wellness workers (action therapy), which provides wrap-around approaches to therapy that address the unique needs of youth through integrative healing models that emphasize the importance of positive and supportive relationships.

My name is Laura Lockwood. I am a clinical social worker and therapist for teenage girls and women. I am passionate about supporting women in coming to a place of self-love and seeing their worth so they can reach their dreams. As women in our current society, we are often disconnected from our internal tools and resources that naturally exist in our mind and body. Our lives are fast-paced and stressful and we often struggle with mental and physical disconnection. This opportunity will give you a chance to take time to sit with yourself in a space that is supportive so that you can learn to access and develop your inner resources.

We are an online counselling agency so do not provide services in person. Strength Counselling Services has licensed, experienced therapists who use evidence-based practices, prioritize client needs, and maintain ethical standards. We offer culturally sensitive, affordable services in a supportive environment. We offer a comprehensive goals assessment, regularly assess progress, and collaborate with other professionals. We provide transparency in our fees and for thirteen years now have held a positive reputation of trust, and client success. Lastly, ensuring our clients' privacy and confidentiality are of utmost importance to us.
