Honouring Healing for First Nations and Inuit Communities

Accessible Psychotherapy Through NIHB Coverage

NIHB-covered therapy provides accessible mental health support for eligible First

Nations and Inuit clients, helping reduce financial barriers to care. It offers a safe and

supportive space to address emotional, relational, and life challenges while working

toward healing and well-being. Accessing therapy through NIHB can support improved

mental health, resilience, and overall quality of life.

Donna offers trauma-informed, culturally responsive care that

recognizes individuals may carry not only personal experiences of trauma,

but also, the impact of intergenerational and historical trauma passed down

through families and communities over time. This can include the lasting

effects of residential schools, systemic discrimination, cultural loss, and

experiences of abuse, displacement, or forced separation across

generations.

This approach honors the deep and complex ways these experiences can

shape emotional well-being, relationships, identity, and one’s sense of

safety in the world. Therapy is offered in a gentle, respectful, and non-

judgmental space, where clients are supported at their own pace and 

emotional safety, trust, and choice are prioritized.
