Counsellor Background

About your counsellor...Coneitia is a Registered Clinical Counsellor and Art Therapist. Coneitia is registered with the Crime Victim Assistance Program and soon-to-be registered with the First Nations Health Authority. She obtained her Master's of Counselling Psychology: Art Therapy degree from Adler University, well-known for social justice advocacy, creating community feeling, and close mentor-ship with faculty. Coneitia's work with the First Nations community is linked closely with her personal journey connecting with her own Aboriginal Identity later in life, being separated from the culture since birth. Coneitia is half Ojibwe from the Long Lake no. 58 First Nations band in Ontario. Although she never met her birth father due to his battle with addiction, she still embraces her Aboriginal culture and heritage.
