Grief Therapists in Winnipeg, MB
I have helped clients with relational issues (marriage/family), addictions (substance, lifestyle, emotional), abuse and emotional crisis (anxiety, depression, anger, loss, body image, OCD) to bring restoration, healing and an enriched life.
Making your way to this website is an important step to improving your life. Choosing the right therapist is really about how well you are understood and guided to resolve what you came for. Since 1990 I've made my counselling different by not dividing people into issues or problems. You are you. What is happening in your life is unique. If you are still unsure about choosing the most effective therapist for you, go to our website and read for yourself the words of those who discovered how to make it happen in their own lives. Don't hesitate; this is the next step.

Perhaps thoughts, memories, or feelings about a painful event make it difficult for you to experience satisfaction in your marriage or family or to excel in roles such as parenting or socializing, or cause you to do things you do not like. Perhaps a personal, relationship or vocational situation is causing you distress, or mental health condition such as stress, anxiety, depression, trauma, grief, or addiction makes it difficult for you to pursue your aspirations. Or, perhaps, concerns about managing a situation, the outcome of significant events, or achieving meaningful goals make it difficult for you to fulfill important roles.

I believe that people who come to consult with me are wanting safety and connection. A sense of safety in their bodies, connection to self, to people they love, to community, or to the larger world. These people may be facing problems that have been called things like anxiety, depression, trauma, disorders, grief, communication or relationship difficulties - names that may or may not feel right to you. Underneath it all, we are looking for the way back to ourselves and each other, to feel safe enough to connect and explore the fullness of life. I want to help you find that way.

The increased pace of change in our lives has created new pressures for men in their relationships, work, and roles. Out of these shifts and unresolved past experiences can come confusing feelings of anxiety, anger or loss.

As an Art Therapist, I combine a creative process with other talk therapy approaches, like Internal Family Systems and Narrative Therapy. (No art skills required.) I support men struggling with grief, life transitions, addictions, trauma, parenting, relationships, and men's issues.

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

Welcome, I'm glad you're here. Seeking support to navigate life's complexities is a courageous first step in your mental health journey. Have you thought about how a satisfying sex life fits into your goal of overall health? In therapy, sex is often overlooked - yet it’s part of your identity and your intimate relationships and contributes to your physical, emotional, and mental health. As a member of both the queer and ENM communities, I understand the feelings associated with not ‘fitting in’ with society’s messages about what is ‘normal.’ I have insight and empathy into the unique ways sexual health can impact one's life.

A common challenge in accessing therapy is finding a therapist who shares your values. The right fit is important. It can be difficult to explore the issues and experiences that are bringing you in, if you feel you have to educate your therapist on your identity. I believe you are the expert on your own experience. I enjoy working with individuals, and relationships (including non-monogamous, polyamorous, etc.). There are many reasons for folks to seek therapy including finding a non-judgemental, safe(r) space to explore issues such as; gender identity, sexual orientation, relationships, grief, and anxiety.

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.
