Meet Clyde, dissociation and trauma therapist

I'm Clyde. I live in Treaty 8 territory on land governed by Woodland Cree First Nation. “As long as the sun shines, grass grows, and rivers flow.”

​​

I am a Registered Social Worker (RSW) with the Ontario College of Social Workers and Social Service Workers. I have a Bachelor of Arts in Social Work from University of Portland and a Master of Social Work from Toronto Metropolitan University.

 ​​​​​​​

I am currently in training to become certified in Trauma-Informed Stabilization Treatment (TIST). 

​​

I offer harm reduction, dissociation-informed, genocide-informed, and gender-affirming psychotherapy for people with intergenerational trauma in Alberta, Manitoba, and Ontario. I practice trauma-specific styles of therapy that are land-based, body-first, and parts work.

I am non-Indigenous white settler and I am a trans man who uses he, him, and his pronouns. I regularly attend culturally responsive clinical supervision.

​​​​​​​​​​

I am a registered NIHB mental health provider. If you are Indigenous, First Nations, or Inuk and you have a status card, then you are eligible for 20-42 sessions of trauma therapy with me each year.​​ ​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​

​

​I am grateful to be invited by The Cultural Recovery Centre of Cat Lake First Nation ᐱᔑᐎᓴᑲᐃ ᑲᓂᒃ to build strong, healing relationships with community members for body, mind, emotion, and spirit.​​ ​​
