Meet Mia
I blend sex education with a therapeutic lens, supporting people in exploring intimacy, embodiment, and relationships in ways that feel safe and authentic. My approach is relational, trauma-informed, and rooted in both science and lived experience. I aim to help clients move beyond performance or goals, toward deeper connection with themselves and others.
My background is in Səx Education and Somatics, and I am currently a student member of the Canadian Professional Counsellors Association working toward a Master Practitioner in Clinical Counselling designation.
I have experience and specialized training in affirmative səx, consent, boundaries, STBBI prevention, gender-affirming care, trauma-informed practice, crisis intervention, restorative conflict resolution, and addiction recovery support.
Influenced by psychodynamic therapy, I practice with both directness and compassion, paying attention to how past experiences, unconscious patterns, and cultural narratives continue to shape my clients’ lives today. I bring a cross-cultural lens, drawing from both Canadian and European approaches.
My practice welcomes all humans of all physical abilities, səxual orientations, relationship structures, and genders.
“Helping people feel seen, safe, and connected with themselves and with others is at the heart of my work.”
