Who I Am

Hi, I'm Celeste.

A clinical counsellor, sexual health educator, mental health advocate, dancer and aerialist, intersectional feminist, writer, and momma to many pets. I am a Registered Social Worker with a Bachelor of Social Work from UBC, and a Masters from U of R. I have training in Trauma Informed Practice, Somatic Experiencing, Anti-Oppressive Practice, Harm Reduction Education, 2SLGTBQ+ counselling, and Dance/Movement Therapy. 

I specialize in gender and sexual diversity, sexual health, healing from sexual and interpersonal trauma, and relationship counselling - monogamous, open, exploring, asexual, or whatever else your relationship brings. 

I am also a queer, bisexual cis-woman, in a committed relationship, and a step-momma to two lovely little people. I teach dance and aerial arts at Fly Fitness, which is informed by trauma-informed care and movement therapy practices.

I use intention setting, my intuition, gentle guidance and thoughtful questions to guide my process. I use somatic practices and dance and movement therapy to tune in to the body-mind connection. I use trauma-informed care to maintain relationships and build awareness and strength. And humour. Lots of humour.

My approach is non-judgemental, open-minded, and filled with curiosity and empathy. I aim to constantly be working towards being anti-racist, and anti-oppressive in my work, in my parenting, in my life. 

I am passionate about creating community and building authentic connections. Let's work together to release the pain, rebuild our power, and repeat.
