Therapists in Winnipeg, MB

I am a sex and intimacy counsellor and educator. My approach is sex positive and practical. I provide guidance to improve the sex and intimate life for those single or coupled, of all genders and sexual orientations. My therapeutic approach involves mindfulness, relaxation (CBT), pleasure orientation and somatic awareness. I offer teachings that bring attention to choice and desire, that gives voice to clarity around needs and requests and that centres the requirement of true consent in the sex and intimacy realm. I am a certified Somatic Sex Educator with a masters degree in Educational Leadership, a former nurse and social worker.

My intention is to provide individuals and partner(s) a brave space that is validating, respectful and empowering while working to challenge undesirable thoughts and emotions. My aim is to facilitate difficult or uncomfortable conversations to restore self-worth, confidence and peace. I believe that by rejecting and unlearning oppressive ways of thinking about ourselves and our relationships, we can move toward connection and understanding. I honour and value all sexual expressions and identities, and am non-monogamy inclusive, kink-familiar and a sex work advocate.

One of the hardest things to say/admit is 'I/we need help'. It takes courage, openness, trust and self-awareness, which can be difficult to foster on our own. Whether you need tools for symptom management (anxiety, depression, nervous system dysregulation, people pleasing behaviours, trauma responses, addictions, relational distress) or you want to deep dive into past experiences for better understanding and meaning, we can work towards developing a treatment plan that helps you create the life you want going forward. Develop the "life hacks" you need to bounce back from challenges with grace and grit!

Life can be difficult, and we all stumble at times. I think that one of the bravest things a person can do when they are struggling is to seek help. At the heart of psychotherapy is change. Whether your struggle is centered around relational issues/conflict, trauma/loss, an important life transition, addiction, sexuality issues, depression, stress, anxiety, or feeling stuck, your commitment to change is your ticket to feeling better.

Whether you’re seeking change or facing it unexpectedly, counseling can be an invaluable tool for your personal growth; And the right client-therapist relationship can help ease and accelerate that process. My approach is client-centered, non-judgmental, and affirming. Together, we can work towards your specific therapeutic goals in ways that feel right for you.

Whether you’re wanting to establish better self-care habits, processing childhood trauma, cope with ADHD, depression or anxiety, or explore aspects of your identity, I'm in your corner.

Do you often feel like nobody really gets you, or when you share about something (be it in-person or on social media), people don't ask curious followup questions? Or like they are quiet while you share but when you stop speaking, they simply shift the focus back to themselves as though they didn't even hear what you said? It's hard to heal, grow, and work towards positive change in your life when you feel unheard, alone, and unknown. I know from many years of experience that when clients feel truly seen, heard, and understood, they feel safe, empowered, energized, and motivated to do the hard work of changing, growing, and healing.
