A Little About Sobia

Currently a practicum student with Living Bridges, Sobia holds a degree in Social Work and is completing the Master of Arts in Counselling Psychology (MACP) program with Yorkville University. Through her involvement in prevention social work, Sobia recognizes a high need for mental health services for our younger generation. She has years of experience working with individuals in areas of trauma, anxiety, depression, eating disorders, PTSD, domestic violence, and sexual abuse. Sobia works collaboratively with clients – using CBT that is solution-focused and strengths-based to empower individuals to recognize their strengths and cultivate the necessary skills to navigate traumatic challenges.

Acknowledging that she is an uninvited guest on the ancestral, traditional, and unceded territory of the Secwepemc Nation, Sobia feels honored to work, play, and live on the land of Tk'emlups people. She understands how experiences of racism, oppression, and inequality can create daily challenges and affect a person’s physical, mental, and spiritual wellbeing, and so she desires to help young individuals who are facing them. Sobia’s person-centered and trauma-informed approach takes into consideration the individual needs and unique circumstances of each client.
