A Greeting from Oana (she/her)
Registered Provisional Psychologist.

For existing clients, the previous rate will be honoured until August 15th. Please reach out to Oana directly if you have any questions about this. 

Hello, I’m Oana,

Throughout my time as a healer in various capacities, I have witnessed the power of safe and nurturing relationships as being key to healing. I honour each client's individual journey and would love to provide the consistency of a relationship with a professional who can see you through the ups and downs of life, reflecting your feelings and providing a reparative relationship. 

I work with adults and couples, although older teens are also welcome. You may be curious about understanding and processing your relationship difficulties, or your experiences with grief, stress, trauma, anxiety and depression. Our work together may involve exploring your own nervous system and looking within at parts that may be in the way of living a truly aligned life. MY modalities are largely process based and I offer somatic experiencing, emotionally focused therapy (EFT), Gottman couple therapy, Jungian depth work and accelerated resolution therapy (ART; although I am unable to provide ART virtually). My overall approach is psychodynamic and person centered, valuing the uniqueness of each client's wisdom and experience. I am inclusive to all genders, orientations and cultural backgrounds. 

I'd love to meet virtually for a first session to see how it feels for you to be in the therapeutic space together.

Warmly,
Oana | she/her

Canmore Counselling & Trauma-Informed Yoga Psychology School is an Indigenous and Black-owned family business, co-created by Melissa Jay and Michael Yudcovitch. 

​Our team lives across Turtle Island, and we honour the Nations who continue to nurture these lands. Our primary office is located in Châ Ûpchîchîyen Kudebi (translated from Îyârhe Nakoda as “shooting at the willows”), colonially known as Canmore, on Treaty 7 territory and the current and ancestral lands of the Îyârhe Nakoda (Stoney Nakoda), Tsuut’ina First Nation, and Blackfoot Confederacy. These lands are also home to the Rocky View Métis District 4 within the Battle River Territory. 

We are grateful to be students, practitioners, and guides of yoga, an Indigenous wisdom tradition with roots in India and across South Asia and parts of Africa. We are committed to learning from and amplifying South Asian teachers and practitioners while continuing to learn alongside our own students, faculty, and alumni. We believe trauma-informed care requires an active commitment to community, social justice, decolonization, anti-oppression, anti-racism, reciprocity, and meaningful care for people and communities who have been intentionally and historically marginalized.

As a team, we are committed to uplifting Truth, language, culture, and relationship as essential to right relations and to our ongoing work of reconciliation and decolonization. Thank you for being here :)
