Powerful Mind Counselling

Meet Noyona

I hold a Master’s degree in Counselling Psychology and am a Registered Clinical Counsellor (RCC).

I offer a relationship that is accepting and non-judgmental. It is important for me to create a safe therapeutic space while supporting healing journeys. My values include compassion, curiosity, and equity. I enjoy working with individuals experiencing anxiety, depression, ADHD, trauma, migration, identity, family/relationship struggles and more.

My approach to therapy is trauma-informed, strengths-based and integrative and is centered around core beliefs and parts of self. I view counselling as holistic and honor the biological, social, and psychological dimensions of experiences. I believe in the mind-body connection and like to examine the interplay between stress, trauma and emotions in our bodies.

I also have training in observed experiential integration (OEI) which helps individuals process trauma beyond talk therapy. OEI techniques work to restore perceptions to the levels they were before experiencing psychological trauma. This translates into more positive self-esteem, social confidence, and feeling less “numbed out” or “stuck”.

Outside of Powerful Mind Counselling I enjoy hot yoga, reading mysteries and exploring different coffee shops in my free time.
