Reaching out for counselling is a big deal, and it takes courage. If you’re here, you’ve already taken an important first step, and I really respect that. Our goal is to create a space where you can be yourself, talk honestly, and work through the hard stuff, without judgment.

My name is Natashia, and I’m the Clinical Director at Ehrlo Counselling. For over 25 years with our agency, I’ve worked with all age groups whether that be kids, teens, and adults. We work on many things including mental health, suicidal ideation, trauma, relationships, big feelings that are hard to manage, and all the complicated parts of being human.

I see it as an honour to sit with people as they figure out their path, try to understand themselves better, and make changes in their lives. It matters to me as the Clinical Director that our team and our space feels warm, safe, inclusive, and genuinely caring, because that’s what you deserve when you reach out for help.

When I’m not at work, you’ll find me running on a trail, snowboarding, or backcountry camping in the mountains with my family. Maybe even occasionally laughing at my own jokes (someone has to)!

Sherry has worked at Ehrlo Counselling since 2013.

She earned a Bachelor of Arts (Honours) in Psychology from the University of Regina and went on to receive her Master of Arts in Counselling Psychology from McGill University. She is a Registered Psychologist in Saskatchewan, with Authorized Practice Endorsement (APE) in Clinical and Counselling Psychology. She has experience providing services to adults, adolescents, and children; working in both clinical and academic settings.

Sherry provides culturally sensitive counselling in the areas of trauma, sexual abuse, 2SLGBTQIA+ issues including sexual orientation and gender identity concerns, mood disorders, anxiety, self-harm, life transitions, and grief.

As a trained Birth and Post-Partum Doula, Sherry also provides counselling to individuals and families who are expecting babies, as well as those who have experienced birth trauma and/or post-partum depression and anxiety.

Sherry works from a Relational Psychodynamic approach to therapy, with a belief that powerful healing and change can occur within the context of the genuine, safe, and supportive therapeutic relationship formed between therapist and client. She also integrates components of Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Dialectical Behaviour Therapy (DBT), Mindfulness and Compassion-Focused Therapy, Schema Therapy, Emotion-Focused Therapy, and Motivational Interviewing.

Sherry is also a Somatic Experiencing® Practitioner in training (see below for more information).

She is an approved Mental Health Therapist with Indigenous Services Canada.

She offers comprehensive cognitive, behavioural, and psychological assessment services.

She periodically supervises practicum students and provisionally registered psychologists.

*Sherry has completed two years out of a three-year program in Somatic Experiencing®. Originally developed by Dr. Peter Levine, Somatic Experiencing (SE) is a body-oriented approach to the healing of trauma and other stress disorders. Within this approach there is a focus on emotional regulation, arousal modulation, and the physiological discharge, release, and completion of self-protective responses (including orienting, fight, flight, and freeze). This release of traumatic shock is key to transforming PTSD and the wounds of early developmental and attachment trauma. SE uses focused awareness of bodily sensations to engage the client’s innate self-regulation and healing. Unlike traditional ‘talk therapy’, SE helps the individual develop body awareness to ‘renegotiate’ and heal trauma, rather than to relive or re-enact trauma.

Outside of work, Sherry is a loving wife and a mom to two young daughters. She loves singing, exercising, attending several Saskatchewan summer festivals, and travelling. She is also currently working to learn Swahili!

Ian operates from a person-centred approach, believing that each individual is unique, and counselling should be tailored to their specific needs. An integrative approach is utilized that incorporates modalities such as Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Motivational Interviewing (MI), and Solution-Focused Brief Therapy (SFBT).   

Outside of work, Ian enjoys spending his time outdoors at the beach with his family, hiking with his dogs or sitting by a campfire. He also spends time coaching or volunteering at his kids’ activities.            

Does it ever feel like there’s just too much coming at you all at once? Maybe it was one life-altering event. Maybe it was a series of experiences that slowly became too much to carry. And now, you’re finding it hard to feel like yourself again. If that sounds familiar, I want you to know: I hear you. I see you. And you are not broken.

I’m Amanda, and I support individuals who have experienced or witnessed traumatic events and are struggling with overwhelm, disconnection, isolation, or simply feeling unlike themselves.

My hope is to help you gently untangle the difficult things you’ve been through so you can feel more present, connected, and engaged in your life again. I use a variety of integrative, mind-body approaches, always guided by what feels most meaningful and supportive to you on your healing journey.

With over 10 years of experience working with individuals and families of all ages, I’ve had the privilege of supporting people through some of life’s hardest seasons. My goal is to create a space where you feel understood, supported, and safe to find your way back to yourself. I hold a Master of Social Work and am a Registered Social Worker. I’m an approved NIHB and Victim Services provider, and my services are covered by most insurance companies.

When I’m not working, you’ll find me enjoying life with my husband and our two little boys. And in those rare moments of quiet, I’m probably out for a run, lifting at the gym, or getting lost in a good book. 

If you’ve been wondering whether it’s possible to feel like you again, I’d love to help you explore what that could look like.

Hi, I’m Meagan!

Life can be beautiful, messy, complicated, and sometimes downright overwhelming. You don’t have to navigate the hard parts alone.

I believe counselling starts with connection. My goal is to create a space where you can show up exactly as you are and feel safe, heard, respected, and supported. Whether you need a place to share your story, practical strategies to cope, support with relationships or family challenges, or someone to walk alongside you through trauma, addiction, mental health concerns, or life’s stresses—I’m here.

I bring over 10 years of experience working with individuals and families, along with a particular interest in addictions and supporting both those experiencing addiction and the people who love them.

I’m also a mom to two amazing humans—one biological and one through foster care—so I know firsthand that family life can hold incredible joy alongside some really hard moments.

When I’m not counselling, you’ll often find me running or outside enjoying nature—two things that help keep me grounded.

I hold a BA in Psychology and Master of Social Work, am a Registered Social Worker, and am an approved NIHB and Victim Services provider.

You show up as you are. We’ll figure out the next steps together.

Hi, I’m Dave and I have been part of the Ehrlo Counselling team for over 20 years. I proudly wear the moniker of being the only senior citizen on the team! As the intake counselor, I am also likely to be the first person you speak with when you call. I know from personal experience that it can be difficult to find the courage to pick up the phone and make that initial call. Courage does not mean a lack of fear, but rather the ability to take action in spite of the fear. As an acquaintance puts it, sometimes we have to ‘do it scared.’ But as I learned personally many years ago, and as many of our clients have said, it can be life-changing to find a safe, welcoming and judgement-free environment where one can be genuine and vulnerable.

I work hard to create such an environment, right from that first call, to de-stigmatize mental health services and to normalize the process. It’s really an honor to work with those encountering difficulty, and who have the courage to confront and address their challenges in order to work toward healing, and to more-fully realize their unique potential.

My counseling philosophy is not complicated (in fact, probably becoming less complicated the older I get); it is strength-based, compassion-focused and client-centered, and incorporates elements of several counseling models. That means that I will really try to meet you where you are, and to develop a respectful therapeutic relationship. I work with individuals in the age range from the mid-teen years through adulthood, including adults with developmental disabilities.

I have experience working with trauma, life-change, depression, anxiety, and emotional regulation. I have a particular interest and training in the area of grief and loss, and find it uniquely humbling and gratifying to walk beside those who are grieving. I have learned so much from grieving clients, all of whom experience grief in their own unique way.

If the ‘letters behind my name’ matter to you, I am a Canadian Certified Counselor (covered by most insurance companies,) and I hold undergraduate degrees in Native Studies and Human Justice, as well as a Master of Education (Educational Psychology.)

When I’m not working I enjoy playing music, travelling, time with family and friends, or being ‘out there’ with the wild things doing wildlife/landscape photography, or just being.  

Dolly Parton said, “Find out who you are and do it on purpose.” and it is my privilege to sit with folks in the counselling space and do just that.

Hi, I’m Ashley and I’m glad you’re here!  I believe all people are worthy of care and belonging, and whether you are ten years old or sixty-five, processing traumatic life events, or exploring new facets of your identity, there is space for you here.

For ten years now, I have been working with children, youth, and adults experiencing all types of challenges from childhood trauma to substance use recovery, and complex grief. Areas of special clinical interest include developmental trauma, disruptive behaviour concerns, and neurodiversity-affirming counselling. My aim is to support each person I work with to find compassion, connectedness, and confidence in their everyday lives. 

Outside of my work, I live for whimsical adventures with my little family at the library, playground, or bookstore.  I love tending my garden and reading fantasy novels.

I hold a Master of Counselling in Counselling Psychology and am a Canadian Certified Counsellor. I’m an approved Victim Services provider and am covered by most insurance companies.
