Patricia holds certification from the Applied Counselling Program at the University of Manitoba, with specialization in addictions. She is also a focusing-oriented therapist who attends to complex trauma. Patricia practices traditional Indigenous teachings and consults with community Elders for guidance. Her passion for stories, wholehearted connections, relationships, and exploring how trauma lives in the body is evident in her ongoing curiosity in the way she walks with people. She is devoted to walking alongside and sharing space with individuals on their healing journey in a holistic and compassionate manner as she believes that healing is an “inside job.”
