Hello, I’m Vanessa, an Indigenous Registered Psychotherapist (Qualifying), here to offer you a safe, respectful, and non-judgmental space. Seeking support is brave, and I commend your efforts. My aim is to create a collaborative environment where we can identify your strengths and provide guidance, support, and coping skills for positive change in your life.
In my practice, I prioritize inclusivity, trust, choice, and empowerment, using a culturally sensitive, trauma-informed, and anti-oppressive approach. I believe in holistic well-being, addressing the mind, body, and spirit. I employ various methods like narrative therapy, DBT, person-centered, and mindfulness-based approaches.
Recognizing your courage in seeking support, I strive to foster a safe and comfortable space for you to explore yourself and your aspirations for positive change. No matter where you are on your journey, I'd be honoured to walk alongside you.
