Bio
Hi, my name is Sacha (she/her)
I am a Registered Clinical Counsellor, Sexual Health Educator, and Certified Clinical Sexologist practicing on the unceded, ancestral land of the xʷməθkʷəy̓əm (Musqueam), Sḵwx̱wú7mesh (Squamish), and səlilwətaɬ (Tsleil-Waututh) peoples known as Vancouver.
I am passionate about sexual health and wellness, and committed to providing inclusive, anti-oppressive, and trauma-informed care and education. I practice Feminist Therapy — an integrative approach that applies to clients of all genders — and recognize how individuals’ wellness and functioning are influenced by their social, cultural, and political identities and experiences.
My goal is to educate and empower clients to identify, address, and challenge the sociocultural and systemic factors that are contributing to the formation and maintenance of their presenting issues, and to promote wellness and functioning on both an individual and societal level.
