Welcome and thank you for stopping by! I am Nolisha, a Registered Social Service Worker and mental health and addictions professional with a particular interest in addiction, recovery, spirituality, and the ways our experiences shape how we understand ourselves and the world around us.
My work is grounded in the belief that people are are not problems. Addiction, trauma, mental health difficulties, difficult relationships, and painful experiences can profoundly affect a person's life, but they do not have to become the entirety of a person's identity.
I am particularly interested in approaches that help people understand their patterns, develop practical skills, strengthen their sense of agency, and move toward meaningful change.
Mental Health & Addictions
Exploring the psychological, social, environmental, relational, and behavioural factors that influence mental health and addiction.
Recovery & Relapse Prevention
Supporting education, skill development, self-awareness, and practical strategies that help individuals navigate recovery.
Faith & Spirituality
Exploring the role that spirituality, faith, meaning, values, and religious beliefs can play in mental health and recovery.
Group Facilitation & Psychoeducation
Developing accessible educational programs and facilitating groups that help people build knowledge, insight, and practical skills.
I believe effective support should consider the whole person- including spirituality!
Mental health and addiction are influenced by more than individual choices. Relationships, trauma, social circumstances, environment, culture, spirituality, physical wellbeing, and access to resources can all play important roles.
For this reason, I am interested in approaches that combine evidence-informed practice with compassion, practical skill development, personal responsibility, and attention to the individual's broader context.
