The Purpose of Therapy
To help you reshape the course of your story.
Therapy is a space to reflect, heal, and grow. At Soul & Feather Counselling, we offer a supportive, non-judgmental environment where you can explore what you are carrying — and begin to move forward with more clarity, more tools, and more of yourself intact.
Our work integrates evidence-based psychotherapy with culturally responsive care. We understand that personal history, cultural identity, spiritual grounding, and social realities all shape how we experience pain — and how we heal.
Founded by Sandrine M'bassé Florent, Registered Psychotherapist, the practice specializes in grief, trauma, perinatal mental health, and major life transitions — with a particular depth of experience supporting individuals navigating racial trauma, intergenerational wounds, and the complex pressures faced by healthcare and public service professionals.
What makes us different
Culturally responsive — truly
You will not need to explain your culture, your background, or why race matters to your healing. We already understand.
Embodied and experiential
Healing is not only cognitive. We work with the whole person — mind, body, spirit — and integrate ritual, movement, and grounding where it serves you.
Active, not passive
We work with people who are ready to engage — to use tools, reflect deeply, and take real steps toward change. This is collaborative work.
Grief held without rushing
Loss does not follow a schedule. We create space for grief to move at its own pace — without pressure to "get over it."
