We're all just walking each other home          ~Ram Dass

Meet Serena

Social Worker /  Therapist MSW, RSW (she/her)

 I am the founder of Five Rivers Counselling and Wellness Services. My practice is rooted in developing meaningful connections and co-creating a safe therapeutic space. I am committed to entering our time together with humility, care, and compassion. I believe that everyone deserves a personalized approach to therapy. My role is to understand who you are and your story.

 

My approach is focused on your whole being where we explore what your body and mind have to say about the challenges that bring you to therapy in order to transform symptom and suffering into wholeness and healing. I work from a culturally-responsive and trauma informed approach, that focuses on supporting mental, emotional, and spiritual wellbeing.

I have over a decade of clinical counselling experience supporting adults and adolescents. I practice from an integrative and creative approach including somatic/body based therapies, mindfulness, and yoga therapy. Together, we can work towards understanding and overcoming challenges, fostering personal growth, learning new coping strategies, and enhancing overall well-being.

Meet Amelia
Life is both storm and calm,
and the challenge of living is
how to use the calm to endure
the storm, not bypass it.

Services

Finding the right fit is an essential part of counselling. I offer a free 30 minute consultation call for us to connect prior to beginning our work together.

This is not a therapy session but

more of a meet and greet. 

In individual sessions, I provide a confidential and safe space for us to collaborate on your goals / hopes for healing and change.

60 minute individual sessions      $220

90 minute individual sessions      $310

As a trained somatic yoga practitioner and registered social worker, I am able to provide body-based sessions that create space for connection between our bodies and minds helping us re-write stories, patterns and relationship challenges.
