Meet Sharon Makanga, RSW, RMSW (She/Her)- the newest member of our Gateways Counselling team!
Sharon brings over six years of clinical experience, a strong background in trauma-informed care, and a deep passion for supporting individuals, families, and communities. With training in CBT, DBT, mindfulness, strength-based approaches, culturally sensitive care, and psychological first aid, she offers a wide range of skills to meet clients exactly where they are.
As a mother of three, an artist at heart, and an advocate for culturally safe practice, Sharon creates a space where you can feel understood, represented, and supported. She works with children (5+), teens, adults, families, and groups, specializing in areas such as anxiety, parenting, domestic violence, family conflict, work/life balance, self-esteem, immigration, Indigenous populations (NIHB), and more.
We’re so grateful to welcome her- and we know many of you will feel the same.
