Our Counseling Practitioners
Our Practitioners provide services based on an Indigenous worldview. This includes resources, storytelling, and support. Approaches may include the medicine wheel, connecting with nature, and community resources.
We are respecting space for clients to be in their truth, to walk in their debwewin (truth). Our truth is connected to all parts of us: physically, mentally, emotionally, and spiritually.

How we can help
Our intention is through the development of a strong therapeutic relationship, people will connect with their debwewin (truth) to explore the many challenges life may bring their way.
Ninoshenh Counseling offers counseling support. We also offer some specializations that are available to each client should they choose. Bundling our counseling support with other supports. These supports can be your pre-existing support or we can also offer some support we regularly work with.
The bundling of support is completely voluntary and at the discretion and lead of the client. Bundled support can come together, and will include joint appointments with the client to review the services they are receiving, as an additional way of wrapping our village around the client.
The following are a few programs that may fully or partially cover your counseling session fees: Ninoshenh Fund, Crime Victim Assistance Program, FNHA, Employee Benefits Programs, Metis Nation BC, Band Funding
