Low-Cost Counselling Program – Coming soon

Momenta and Many Stories Therapy are launching a low-cost, community-based counselling program in Manitoba, led by master’s-level practicum students under the clinical supervision of experienced clinicians.

Our approach draws on narrative, adventure, and feminist therapies, alongside other relationship-based practices. We centre ways of working that emphasize decolonizing perspectives, social justice, and anti-oppressive practice. Counsellors are committed to creating spaces grounded in safety, choice, creativity, connection, and stories of dignity.

All student counsellors are supervised by experienced therapists, Lise Brown, MSW, RSW, and Candace Neufeld, MSW, RSW, each bringing over 20 years of practice.

”My son finished his last week at camp and it was another positive experience, so much he’s wanting to try a sleepover camp as well as a day camp next year. Quite a difference from the Child who came kicking and screaming all the way on the first day! This change of perspective was certainly the result of an excellent team of counsellors at camp. They planted some invaluable seeds in this boy’s life.“
