About Michelle Lewicki

Welcome! My name is Michelle, and I am an associate therapist at Thrive Counselling. I am a trauma-informed therapist and use different modalities in my practice that include Narrative, Attachment, Solution-Focused, Mindfulness, and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy. I can relate to and understand the pain and challenges of how trauma shapes our lives. I hold a safe, supportive, compassionate, and judgement-free space for you to process your feelings, while offering insight and empowerment to help you choose the life you deserve to live

I have many years of experience working with individuals, couples, families as well as children and teens that struggle in different areas of life that include but are not limited to family of origin issues, shame, trauma, abuse, addictions, depression, self-esteem, anxiety, stress, eating disorders, grief, disabilities, life transitions, sexuality, divorce, and many other relationship complexities.

Change is extremely difficult, especially when we have been stuck in our same patterns for many years. Sometimes it is hard to seek help, but you are in the right place! I believe that authentic connection to our core self is the key in finding inner peace to be able to move forward.

It is my passion and my honor to help guide you towards your path of healing. My credentials include a Bachelor of Arts degree in Sociology, a Certificate in Applied Counselling, and a clinical Masters degree in Marriage and Family Therapy (MMFT) from the University of Winnipeg. I am also a member of the Canadian Association of Marriage and Family Therapy (CAMFT).

In my spare time I enjoy spending time with family, friends, and my Cockapoo! I strongly believe in self-care, and you will often find me practicing in the hot yoga studio. I love travelling and am always looking for a new adventures, new cultures, and yummy culinary experiences.
