Elevate Counselling Services

Elevate Counselling Services Welcome to Elevate! I offer in-person, virtual, and Walk & Talk counselling sessions.

I would love the opportunity to help you build capacity to manage life's challenges. Mattie Braden holds Master of Education degrees in Special Education and Guidance & Counselling from Brandon University. She is a Certified Canadian Counsellor through the Canadian Counselling and Psychotherapy Association and has completed a 60 hour Trauma Counselling Support Certificate through the Crisis & Trau

ma Resource Institute. A long time fitness instructor in Brandon, Mattie is currently completing her Walk & Talk Therapy certification and feels that movement, while working through the therapeutic process, can help strengthen the mind-body connection thus contributing to overall health and wellness. Mattie believes that people hold their own power to make change and move forward and she enjoys facilitating conversation and opportunities to support her clients in these goals. She follows trauma-informed practices focusing on Cognitive Behaviour Therapy and Solution-Focused Therapy approaches. Mattie particularly enjoys supporting individuals who may identify as neurodivergent and has extensive experience working with people who have mild to profound Intellectual Disabilities. She offers in-person appointments, virtual appointments, and Walk & Talk therapy appointments.

Part of unmasking mental health is dispelling the myth that self-care is self-indulgence. Self-care is proactive and deliberate and it’s critical to our mental and physical wellbeing. We should all practice self-care in some form every day from ensuring we get a good night’s rest to getting help when we need it.

On International Self-care Day we encourage you to practice some self-care. Use our permission slip as a mental commitment to honoring that practice: https://cmha.ca/news/self-care-simplified-why-its-essential-and-how-to-make-it-happen/

Welcome to All Our New Followers!

With so many new faces joining us here on Facebook and Instagram, we wanted to take a moment to reintroduce ourselves and share the story behind TMT – The Massage Temple.

Together, we’ve been practicing massage therapy for over a decade each, and we’re passionate about helping others heal and feel their best.

TMT began in a cozy little shop on 6th Street, October 2019. When Ashley finally convinced Kirstie to come work alongside her, it quickly became clear that going into business together was the next right step. In November 2023, Kirstie officially became a co-owner, and we expanded into our beautiful new space at 1502 Rosser Avenue with a vision to grow and offer more healing modalities under one roof.

What started with three RMTs and a mind-body coach has now evolved into a wellness space, offering services from:
✨ 3 Registered Massage Therapists
✨ 2 Certified Reflexologists
✨ 1 Certified Counsellor
✨ 1 Psychic Medium & Energy Healer

We’re proud of how far we’ve come, and we’re not done yet! We currently have space available for like-minded practitioners and would love to connect with anyone interested in joining our wellness team.

Our mission remains rooted in the belief:
"Your Body, Your Temple – Heal Your Body the Natural Way."

Thanks for being here with us. Whether you’re new or a long-time client, we’re so grateful for your support and trust.

With gratitude,
Ashley & Kirstie
Co-Owners @ TMT
