Counselling Services

Minwaashin Lodge offers professional client centred counselling for a number of life challenges including:

Addictions, depression, sexual violence, couple/relationship issues, abuse (past or current) and trauma.

We also provide counseling services to youth (ages 13-29) and children (ages 7-12).

Many of the difficulties faced by our clients are the result of the Residential School legacy and the intergenerational impacts. Counselling occurs within the context of cultural beliefs and values to ensure a holistic approach is used as part of the healing journey. Counselling techniques and approaches being offered within a holistic framework include:

  • Spiritually Based Counselling
  • Cognitive Behavioural Techniques
  • Progressive Relaxation Training
  • Focusing Therapy
  • Solution Focused Therapy

Check out the Kesa Pa Wew program listings!

Workshops on specific topics are offered throughout the year. Please contact our Counselling Case Manager for more information at 741-5590 ext. 258.
