Hello ❤️

I had to postpone the group therapy 😕 I did not get participation but I believe that Creator’s delays are not denials and this will launch when it is meant to 🥰 (wise words from someone very dear to me)

I’m going to a sweat lodge ceremony today and looking forward to spending time in prayer, release and reflection.

Wishing you a beautiful day wherever this post finds you 🤩

Happy Monday 🥰

Last week I attended the Recovery Capital conference in Calgary. It was a wonderful experience to be sharing space with 2000+ attendees who have a commitment to not only their journey but supporting others doing the same ❤️

Among many new insights, one of the speakers shared a teaching on becoming more spiritual that resonated with me.

Wanna become more spiritual?

Slow down. Drink water like it holds memory. Bless your space like you live in a temple. Speak to your body like it’s listening.

Walk barefoot. Watch the moon. Sit in stillness. Laugh. Cry. Clean. Rest. Create.

You don’t have to become something. You’re already made of light.
Spirituality is just….remembering that. ☀️

Light a candle. Set an Intention. Show up again tomorrow.
That’s it.

To me, it’s a simple regime to come back to who we are and who we are meant to be. Spirituality has been instrumental in my healing journey and as an Indigenous therapist, it is foundational in how I practice 🤩

May you remember your light this week and beyond!

I recently trained in an amazing therapy modality and I am accepting new clients 🤩

Trauma doesn't just live in our minds — it lives in our bodies, in our spirits, and in our stories. For many Indigenous people, trauma can be personal, intergenerational, or collective — tied to colonization, loss of land, language, family, and culture.

But healing is possible. And you're not alone.

🌬️ EMDR Therapy (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) is a powerful, evidence-based method that helps the brain process traumatic memories in a safe and supported way.

👁️‍🗨️ EMDR uses gentle bilateral stimulation (like eye movements or tapping) to help "unstick" painful memories, so they no longer feel like they're happening right now.

✨ Many people feel relief from:
Flashbacks or nightmares
Anxiety and panic
Grief and loss
Shame or guilt
Feeling disconnected from themselves or others

As Indigenous peoples, our healing journeys are sacred. EMDR can be a tool we use alongside traditional ways of knowing — not to replace them, but to support them.

🧡 You deserve peace. You deserve healing. You deserve to reclaim your story.

📅 Book a consultation or reach out to learn more about how EMDR therapy might support you or your loved ones on the healing path.

Hello beautiful souls…

It has been an up and down few weeks in my journey. I was reminded of a teaching I heard about the buffalo.

When there is a storm, the buffalo will run directly into the storm, they do not run from it or wait for it to pass before charging forward. They face it head on so as to come out on the other side of the storm. Ahhh what an amazing reminder ❤️

Be like the buffalo…charge into your storms with faith and perseverance.

Everything we go through can be a message, lesson or a blessing but it is up to us to discern that.

Life is meant for us, it doesn’t happen to us ❤️

It can be difficult to live the life we want when our trauma holds us back.
You are worthy of healing and living the life you dream of. Shifting out of survival is possible!

Been a minute since I’ve posted…

With the new year upon us, I took the time to really reflect on 2024 and what it taught me. It was a year of change, growth and focusing on what I wanted. My goal was freedom…freedom to choose, freedom to be who I wanted, freedom from anything that was holding me back from living the life I envisioned. So I went for it…was it easy? Not always. Was it scary? Sometimes. Was it worth it? ABSOLUTELY 💯

2025 for me is about continuing on this journey of freedom and adding trust and faith to that. Trust in myself and faith in Creator…I have been working through the “Let Them” theory and embracing the belief that I am enough ❤️ both life changing concepts that are easy to understand but can be challenging to integrate.

I’m grateful for my path thus far and excited for what is to come!

Join me on the journey to empowerment and learn how to embrace being enough and how to “Let Them” 🤩

Wishing everyone a beautiful and blessed year!
