– saying from American First Nation’s oral tradition.
For many women, we have spent a lifetime being told that we are “too”. Too fat, too thin, too loud, too passionate, too shy, too broken. Over time this wears us down and we turn ourselves inside out trying to meet other’s expectations of what we should be. I was one of those women. For many women, even the mental health systems that are supposed to help, end up being places of disempowerment, victim blaming, essentially re-traumatising. There is no healing in these places, and this is reflected through the growing crisis in our families and communities around the world.

Our Warlandi Trauma-Informed Counselling service provides culturally grounded, compassionate support tailored to the needs of First Nations women and the broader community.
