Michelle Denis (RP, ExAT, BFA, OEATA)
Registered Psychotherapist and Parent Coach
Expressive Arts, Mindfulness, Somatic, and Person-Centered Psychotherapy, and Attachment, Peaceful Parenting Coach
I have witnessed in myself and others, our capacity to cultivate joy, gratitude and resilience, no matter what we have and continue to face in our lives. We all have the capacity to tap into an inner wisdom to transform our lives moment to moment.
As a Somatic Mindfulness Therapist and Expressive Arts Therapist, I facilitate a process of slowing down with curious observation of the inner somatic, sensory and emotional experience, both in meditation and/or during an artistic process, as a way to deepen self understanding and acceptance, and to find resolution and healing from the body, emotional and sensory wisdom.
I work collaboratively with my clients and give room for listening and holding space alongside any experiential processes the client would like to engage in.
I work with women, men, parents, teachers, childcare providers and groups. The arts practices I facilitate, as desired, are visual, dance/movement, voice/sound, drama/story telling, and poetry.
Some of the benefits of therapy may include:
Areas of Expertise:
Fees: $165 per 1hr session.
