Whether Sonia is sitting across from a client, or working with a group, she is acutely aware that every lived story is unique. With that in mind, she prioritizes compassionate curiosity, cultural humility, and evidence-based practices in her work. As a therapist, she is keen to uncover the spots that cause people distress, gets them stuck, and stirs up the big emotions that seep through their lives. She balances her approach of getting people ‘as well as possible as fast as possible’, with the intention of giving a lot of space for clients to share and explore at a pace that works for them. Sonia tries to keep strategies and information easy to digest through story, humour and clear delivery.
I appreciate that I am able to live, work, and play on land that was first inhabited by the Dene Suliné, Cree, Nakota Sioux and Saulteaux peoples. I acknowledge and value that Indigenous people who lived here before me cared for this space long before I arrived. With this in mind, I will also attempt to care for this land as part of my acknowledgement of, and role in, reconciliation.
