Tiffany Saunders, BA, BSW, MSW, SWC
Tiffany focuses on taking a holistic health and wellness approach to the clients she works with, considering the social, economic and cultural contexts people have been shaped by. She is passionate about supporting others to connect to their own inner wisdom and guides, in addition to advocating for people to have equal access to the social determinants of health.
Some of her work has been assisting families with the challenges associated with the child protection system, in addition to accessing supports for individuals with physical and intellectual disabilities. She has worked closely with youth experiencing homelessness, those who have experienced sexual violence and people who are involved in the justice system. She is sensitive to the complexities of system level harms, and finding ways to interrupt them in collaboration with clients and other community partners.
Her approach in counselling is to provide an empathetic, non-judgemental safe space for people to be themselves, heal at their own pace, and work towards their dreams and goals. She is passionate about supporting self-identifying young women and girls, as well adult women around embodiment practices, addressing some of the collective challenges that women uniquely face. She is interested in working with all genders and non-gender specific people, sexual orientations, cultural and religious affiliations.
Some of her favourite practices and activities are yoga, boxing, meditation, cold dipping, hiking in nature, reading and staying connected to close friends and family.
