Divorce Therapists in Winnipeg, MB

We all experience difficult events in our lives. Some of these events happened a long time ago, and have influenced the way that we interact with ourselves and the world. Some of these events are more recent and throw us off the course we were on. We can become stuck in ways of being that are no longer helpful to us end up causing distress. I believe therapy can be a helpful way to process what has or is happening in our lives and encourage healthy adaptation and growth, so we can live our lives with more peace, happiness and connection.

People may seek therapy for help with issues that are hard to face alone. Counseling can help people overcome obstacles to their well-being. It can increase positive feelings, such as compassion and self-esteem. People in therapy can learn skills for handling difficult situations, making healthy decisions, and reaching goals. Many find they enjoy the therapeutic journey of becoming more self-aware and self-growth. You may have heard the phrase, “No man is an island.” That especially rings true when families face trouble. Sometimes even the strongest family unit may need support and guidance in dealing with unexpected circumstances.

Finding a therapist can be a daunting task, especially if you are new to therapy and not sure how to find the right fit. My goal is to offer you a safe space to determine what you hope to gain from therapy and how we can best meet your needs. Originally from Dublin, I am a white settler living on Treaty 1 territory. I am a cisgender lesbian and I specialize in working with members of the LGBTQ+ community, particularly gender-questioning and transgender young people. As a queer mother, I also support other parents and would-be parents in navigating the unique challenges of making our families.

I am a certified psychotherapist with 15 years of experience working with trauma, any mental health struggles and addictions. I believe that humans are more resilient than they think and that it is important to stop suffering as we are here to thrive not to survive. If you have been encouraged to go to therapy and work on your issues, I will be encouraging you to go and live your life. It takes courage to live. Life is therapeutic. Meaningful life consists of all the emotions, and in my practice we find ways to work through them so they are no longer the barriers for you living your life to the fullest.

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.

Therapy can be an important tool to help people to connect not only to each other, but also to themselves. We as human beings desire to be deeply known by our friends, partners, family and the communities we belong to, but we also long to know ourselves and live not only to survive, but to thrive in our own skin.

Therapy invites us to approach and understand the challenges we are facing in a supportive and safe relationship, enabling us to respond differently than we have or could before. We all have experiences or relationships that are complex and add stress to our lives. We each have a choice: resign to living with a level of stress that is simply physically and emotionally unsustainable, or explore the origin to make a change.

We’re human. And as humans, there will be times where we need the presence of a kind, compassionate, and non-judgemental other to walk alongside us through our struggles, circumstances, and suffering. That’s what my practice is all about: using the gift of the therapeutic relationship to create space for us to explore and experience our emotions in a way that helps us feel empowered to re-write the problem-saturated stories we tell about ourselves into stories that are life-giving, true, and sacred. When it comes to your frustrations, fears, struggles, suffering, and existential questioning, you don't need to walk alone.

I have worked extensively with people of varied cultures, family dynamics, and life experiences. I help people with empathic observational assessment and goal directed therapy.

I offer counselling through reflective counselling tools, information sharing and guidance, I provide brief interventions, solution focussed strategies, cognitive behavioural strategies, trauma therapy: basic EMDR and motivational interviewing strategies.

It takes courage to take the first step in asking for help. We are constantly shifting and evolving and the process of change can be difficult if we feel unsupported. Therapy can be the place where you arrive as you are and work towards who you need to be.

Accepting New Clients! (Evenings and Weekends Available) I look forward to walking with you on the journey of health, healing and well-being! My focus is on supporting women, youth, and families through various life challenges. My practice is built on a holistic therapeutic approach, recognizing the importance of addressing all aspects of a person's well-being – physical, emotional, mental, and spiritual. By tailoring my methods to the unique needs of each client, I strive to create a safe and supportive environment where individuals can achieve meaningful growth and transformation.

If you come to see me, you will probably laugh sometimes. That might surprise some people who think of therapy as something serious. I think of therapy as something that's very human. Sure, we will probably talk about upsetting things - that's why you're going, after all, because something is distressing and not working. But sometimes finding the humour in our situations is part of what needs to happen. Laughter, tears, "Ah ha!" moments - they're all there and important.

Healthy relationships (including the one with ourselves) are necessary for humans to thrive. What characterizes a healthy relationship, and what influences our ability to participate in them is explored in therapy. Human beings crave attachment and connection but also engage in behaviors that can be hurtful and damaging. Therapy is about healing from the past, learning about boundaries and the process of repair, understanding patterns, self reflection, and working towards goals that are aligned with our values, desires, and needs. I am passionate about working with people of all walks of life who want to create meaningful change.

If you are struggling and want to get to the root of what you are feeling and what's driving your patterns, then you've come to the right place. I'll help you explore your underlying feelings so you are able to experience greater connection within yourself and live more wholeheartedly. I'll help you better understand your family history, your mental health, and your relationships, while learning the tools unique and helpful to YOU so you can thrive. I'm a BIPOC and 2STLGBQ+ ally and I believe in the inherent strength of each individual, while recognizing the impact of broader social inequities on health and mental health.

Do you often feel anxious without reason? Do you sometimes wish your mind could just stop thinking for awhile and let you enjoy inner peace? We often become victims of our own minds and emotions, struggling with the same inner and outer turmoil over and over and don’t know why. Anxiety, worry, self doubt, fear and incessant thinking aren’t caused by a single factor but a combination of things such as trauma, difficult life experiences, loss, troubled relationships and stress. Dealing with these issues, processing your feelings and learning strategies to quiet your mind will help you attain inner peace and emotional resilience

I am a caring and experienced therapist dedicated to helping people heal and achieve their goals. We all reach a point in life when we know we want to make changes and my goal in every session is to help you move forward and find relief. I am currently an associate with Dr. Valdine Scott and Associates.

Welcome to West End Therapy, where the focus is on taking care of your emotional and relationship health. We are a group of compassionate and skilled Marriage & Family Therapists who are here to listen, seek to understand, collaborate with you and share expertise to support your mental health and the health of your relationships. We can help you figure out what patterns are causing distress and find a path that can support you and the ones you love move toward flourishing.

No issues are too challenging to be solved. On the contrary, issues persist because we lack the requisite knowledge and strategies to fix them. Our experiences, knowledge, and education have enabled us to offer our clients practical, individualized, and psychological care. We specialize in treating several mental health disorders like Addictions, Depression, Anxiety, Trauma, to name a few. In addition, we provide a neutral ground for individuals, families, and couples to narrate their stories in a non-judgmental way. We believe that our clients can heal themselves. Our job at Eagles Alternative Therapy is to empower our clients.

It’s not easy finding the right therapist. That’s why we have a client care coordinator trained to connect you with a therapist from our team who best matches your needs. Our therapists are great at supporting clients, but that’s not enough. We supervise, mentor, and train them to be the best they can be at helping you… because that’s our Mission–helping you make the important changes you want in your life.

Sometimes problems feel so big it seems almost like that's all there is in your life. My job is to help you reclaim your life from those problems, to be able to make the choices YOU want to make about your life, rather than feeling like you have to accept the choices it feels like your problems are making for you. I want to help you live the life YOU want to see for yourself - to live according to what matters to YOU. YOUR values and beliefs, YOUR chosen purposes in life, YOUR dreams.

Therapy can help us to connect with ourselves and others, find meaning, joy, love, acceptance, playfulness and peace of mind. If you are recovering from trauma, if you are stuck or struggling, therapy can create a safe space to work through painful and difficult emotions and experiences in order to live better and feel better. I value creativity, compassion and collaboration. My approach is drawn from attachment theory, narrative therapy, trauma-informed somatic therapies, mindful self-compassion and relational therapy.

Hello! I am a Clinical Associate at Prairie Psychology, working under the supervision of Dr. Darek Dawda (Ph.D., C.Psych.). I am a PhD student in Clinical Psychology at the University of Manitoba. I have worked with individuals experiencing a variety of concerns, such as anxiety, depression, stress, and interpersonal challenges.

Each challenging moment provides an opportunity to slow down, reflect and to integrate what life hands us. Sometimes this is messy, often it is hardship, but my hope is to walk alongside my clients and to see them through to what is next, hopefully with a renewed sense of strength, self-acceptance and awareness. I've worked for the provincial Eating Disorder Program, Family/Parenting Centre and in Community based Women's Health services. These experiences have provided me with a deep respect and admiration for my clients' strength and resilience.
