Shayne Vars, MC, Mental Health Therapist
Hi there! I’m a mental health therapist with 15 years of experience as a registered social worker, primarily working with adults facing concurrent mental health and addiction challenges. I am trained in EMDR and approach therapy from a person-centered, trauma-informed perspective. I believe that healing occurs when we create space to focus on ourselves, and I am passionate about the importance of building community. I strive to foster this sense of connection both within the therapeutic space and each individual’s support system.
As a therapist, I value the innate knowledge and abilities individual’s bring to the counselling relationship, and it is my role as a therapist to shine awareness on these abilities in order to navigate life’s challenges. I focus on providing an anti-oppressive and empathetic environment for the folks I get to support, and look forward to meeting you soon.
