Aaron Kapin
Somatic Experiencing Practitioner, SEP, LMT
To be a sustainable in your efforts to excel, it's important to be able to not only access your drive, but also to actually fully rest on your off-time. Somatic Experiencing can help with both of those things.
And if you have an injury or trauma on the way that starts blocking your ability to do the things you want to do, we can work together to help your body bounce back from the stress of that incident.

Thunder Bay is a northwestern Ontario city that functions as the primary urban centre and service hub for a vast region of the Canadian Shield, and it has one of the highest urban Indigenous populations of any Canadian city—both permanent residents and individuals who travel hundreds of miles from remote reserves to access healthcare, education, and services. The city has faced significant challenges with Indigenous youth mental health and suicide, violence, and the mental health impacts of colonization and intergenerational trauma from residential schools, and these concerns are central to the local mental health landscape. Lakehead University's Indigenous studies programs contribute to a growing body of decolonized mental health approaches, and regional services work to address significant unmet need. Common therapy concerns include Indigenous trauma and intergenerational residential school effects, geographic isolation, substance use, depression, and the complex grief of a community navigating both the legacy of colonial harm and ongoing racism and marginalization.
