I'm Dunja, a relational therapist with a background in cultural studies, community work, and a creative streak that runs across everything I do. Remaining open to ourselves and other people takes courage in a world that is often heavy. I’m excited to work with people ready to explore their identities (social, culturally, gender and sexual, racial, political and otherwise) and people trying to understand, strengthen and sustain their relationships and communities. I believe we can do this difficult work of reconnection and repair while still calling on playfulness and creative expression.

Therapy provides an opportunity for healing and feeling more in control in your life. If you are concerned about the level of your own or someone else's alcohol or drug use I am an addictions therapist and registered social worker. For over 20 years I have helped clients restore balance around alcohol, drug use, gambling and internet addiction. My passion is to create the space needed for recovery so you can begin to recognize and understand the ingrained patters that are just not working. Together we look at how these patterns have come about and are shaped by significant relationships in your life, both past and present.

Each individual interacts with the world through their unique shadow and the mask shaped by their pain. I believe that within every person lies the potential for healing and inner wisdom. Both the angel and the demon reside within us. At times, we may project our inner demons onto those around us, believing that others are the source of our suffering. However, it is often our pain that fuels these inner struggles, creating a distorted view of the world.

Winnipeg, MB R3L
Waitlist for new clients
Wai-Han (慧娴) is my name. Wai: wisdom; Han: elegance. Born and raised in a shame-based culture, from a young age things were spoken over me that were the opposite of this, that I did not measure up to my name. I experienced the power of words- that they can speak life or death- for me evoking self-rejection. Through my journey toward healing, spoken words brought liberating life to me. Thus, I am passionate about speaking life into people’s lives, even while they struggle with depression, anxiety, or challenging relationships. I love seeing individuals find more internal freedom, and feel empowered & in control of their experiences.

Throughout our life we encounter many transitions, changes and opportunities for growth and movement. At times we can find ourselves becoming stuck, sometimes repeatedly. Therapy is about change and becoming unstuck by leaning into the discomfort. I believe we innately lean towards wellbeing and at times we require the support of another to meet that discomfort. I look forward to the opportunity to develop a therapeutic relationship with you and work alongside you on your personal journey.

Right from when I was a little girl, I have enjoyed spending time listening to people’s stories. Most of my adult life I have spent as an accountant. However, I found that my true passion was always sitting with clients and not behind a computer. I learned early on that the accounting relationship with clients wasn’t always about numbers. Through additional coursework and involvement in memberships, committees, and boards, I have been able to be a part of facilitating change and growth within the community.
