Therapists Winnipeg

Dina is pursuing her Master of Arts Degree in Counselling Psychology through Yorkville University. She holds a Bachelor of Science and has over 18 years of experience as a Manual Holistic Therapist.

Born and raised in Siberia (Russia), Dina is bringing a strong multicultural and multilingual perspective to her work. She is fluent in English, Russian, and Hebrew.

Throughout her career, Dina has supported adults and youth navigating trauma, grief and loss, anxiety, chronic pain, and postpartum depression. Her extensive background in manual therapy has shaped a deep appreciation for the mind–body connection and the ways emotional distress can be held physically. This holistic perspective informs her therapeutic work and allows her to support clients in both emotional and embodied healing.

Dina is particularly interested in supporting individuals through life transitions, identity exploration, and recovery from overwhelming or prolonged stress.

Hayley Harris is a Bachelor of Social Work student at the University of Calgary, currently completing her final practicum. She is also a certified yoga, breathwork, and meditation instructor with several years of experience supporting individuals and groups in cultivating emotional awareness, body awareness, and mindful connection.

Hayley’s approach is holistic, strengths-based, and trauma-informed. She is particularly drawn to narrative therapy and the belief that people are not defined by their challenges, but by the stories, strengths, and meanings they hold. Her work centres on creating calm, inclusive spaces where individuals can explore their stories, values, and strengths in meaningful and empowering ways.

She integrates mindfulness-based practices in developmentally appropriate ways to support connection, emotional regulation, and wellbeing, while always meeting people where they are.

Through her work and life experiences, Caitlin has come to deeply admire the courage it takes for people to ask for help.

Caitlin looks forward to collaborating with clients to make meaningful use of their time in therapy. Her approach is holistic in nature, and grounded in person-centred & trauma informed care.  She will draw from attachment theory, mindfulness, narrative, and existential humanistic therapy, as well as incorporating creative and play-based techniques when helpful.

Caitlin is a student in the Masters of Education in Counselling Psychology program at the University of Manitoba.  She holds a Bachelor of Music Therapy, and is a student member of the Canadian Counselling and Psychotherapy Association (CCPA).

Mishelle is an Art Therapy student at the Kutenai Art Therapy Institute, who deeply believes in the power of creativity as a way to connect, process, and heal. 

Her path to art therapy began over ten years ago while working in a children’s hospital where she worked closely alongside psychotherapists, occupational therapists, and medical staff. It’s here that she witnessed the profound impact of compassionate, multidisciplinary care and the crafting of healing in various modalities.

Mishelle’s approach is eclectic and rooted heavily in trauma-informed practice, person-centred art therapy, and humanistic values. Mishelle is deeply process-focused, honouring the unfolding of meaning rather than outcomes. She meets each person exactly where they are, tailoring her work to the individual, the group, and the moment.

Mishelle works with children, youth, adults, families, and older adults. Her practice is shaped by a strong respect for cultural identity, lived experience, and the many ways stories are carried in the body, memory, dreams, and creative expression. 

She currently holds a particular focus on working with migrant communities, offering therapy in English, Russian, and Hebrew.

Rayan graduated from Queen’s University in 2022 with a Bachelor of Arts in Psychology and is currently completing his final year of graduate studies at the University of Manitoba with a Master of Education in counselling psychology. He is a student member of the Canadian Counselling and Psychotherapy Association and plans to achieve full certification upon graduation. 

Rayan has aspired to become a psychotherapist since he was fifteen years old and while he has experienced related opportunities since then, including volunteer work as a crisis responder with Kids Help Phone, he is very excited to be supporting people in an official therapeutic practice for the very first time!

Rayan is hoping to work with people from many walks of life and to draw from a variety of therapeutic approaches, such as CBT and Play Therapy, in order to develop a better understanding of his own personal style and skillset. In doing so, he aims to tailor his approach such that each client is able to experience therapy in the way that best suits them.

Given his experience working with school-aged students, Steve is looking to broaden his experience by working with adults in addition to children.

His ability to build authentic connections with others helps to create a comfortable, safe, and judgement-free space where meaningful growth can be inspired and achieved.
