Ashes & Rising Therapy and Wellness

When we care for others within impossible systems, self care is paramount.

Recent announcements made by the Alberta government are targeted and harmful attacks on the human rights of Transgender people.

As a provider of gender affirming care who has immersed themselves in decades worth of research, these policies are political pandering and in no way reflect the science.

I will continue to advocate for and provide evidence based gender affirming care to all.

When I woke up this morning, and it was confirmed that Alberta had once again voted in a conservative government, my mind reeled.

This time it’s a far right government that idolizes what is happening in Florida right now.

I felt that all too familiar fear that tells me I’m alone, and I am solely responsible to protect my loved ones and run.

I googled different locations in BC to move to, how to register as a social worker there, cost of living, schools, jobs…you name it, I googled it. I, like many, feel more in control when I have a plan.

Then I took a breath.

I went to my safe places on social media, where my people connect.

I took another breath.

I remembered that I am not alone, and there are many others fighting and creating safety here.

I remembered that during my time as the vice president of , our mission was to have people find community in their community, and the difference that makes.

Your fear, anger, sadness and all other emotions are valid, but you are not alone.

Find community.
Find your people.
Find Love.

My heart is so full to have lead such an incredibly powerful workshop.

The synchronicity that existed and courage that these women showed as they leaned into the connection was a beauty to behold.

We released, we rose, we connected with each other, the land and the elements. We burned the stories that are keeping us stuck.

We are moving into the new year clear on our values for an aligned 2023.

What I know to be true is that when we move through and share our own experiences, there is always someone who stares back with tears in their eyes nodding me too.

The power of “And”.

Ashes and Rising Therapy and Wellness was born out of the understanding that life and the human experience are filled with dichotomies. The good and the bad, the easy and the hard, the light and the dark, the strength and the weakness.

This space can support you in unraveling your story and rising up out of it.

Like a phoenix rising from the ashes.

Are you ready for your own Phoenix process?
