Chronic Pain or Illness
Shaunna Grams, Grams Counselling Services Inc.
Counsellor/Therapist, Registered Clinical Counsellor
Research has made great head way with the complexity and often frustrating experience of chronic conditions. Your physical and mental health are connected. You can not influence one without influencing the other. How you direct your attention, thoughts, and regulate stress greatly impacts your experience of pain and health related conditions.

Chronic Pain or Illness
Valerie Dessaulles
Counsellor/Therapist, RCC
When you have been suffering from pain on a daily basis, or have just been diagnosed with a lifelong illness it can be hard to know where to turn. It can feel very isolating, because we don't want to burden our loved ones with our struggles. It can feel like you are living life with a heavy burden and you don't know where to offload some of the stress - let me help. I know what chronic pain can feel like, or hearing that diagnosis - let me help you to find a way to continue to live your best life, or challenge yourself to feel better. I will help you find tools that work for you and your injury / illness that won't increase your pain, but helps you to ease it.

Alain Langlais
Licensed Professional Counsellor, M.H., RTC, C.CH T
My approach to counselling is to respect and value the uniqueness of every individual and where they are. I work to support them using creativity, with warmth, understanding and at times, a touch of humour when appropriate.

Meredith Mpinga
Counsellor/Therapist, MA, CPC
As a covid-conscious therapist, I want to ensure that Meadowinds is a safe space for clients who are vulnerable or suffering from chronic illness.
Our current dystopian reality can bring up so many feelings of grief, loneliness, despair, anger... and yet often the supports and resources we've relied on in the past to help us through challenges are not as accessible today.
Whether you want a safe space to process your own emotions, losses, and challenges with the ongoing pandemic, or you just want a therapist who won't pathologise your precautions as you seek support for other concerns, I'm here for you.
At Meadowinds, sessions are available either in person with masking or on an online video platform from the comfort of your home.
Current office protocols include running an air purifier with HEPA filtration, staggering sessions to limit contact in the waiting room, and transitioning to an online session if symptomatic.

Ashleigh Wallace
Pre-Licensed Professional
As someone who copes with chronic pain themselves, I can understand how burdensome and isolating it can become when a flair-up occurs. I offer a holistic approach and strategy exploration to support clients in managing their pain and enhancing their quality of life. I strive to empower clients to develop coping skills, redefine their relationship with pain, and foster a sense of empowerment.
