Lena’s professional background consists of working in a variety of roles in both education and social services. As a DSP she loves the opportunity to build professional relationships based in care and safety. She believes that reaching goals looks different for everyone so with the clients lead, together they break things down into smaller steps that work for the individual. She enjoys incorporating somatic based therapies like mindfulness and movement into her work. She often works on supporting goals connected to creativity, healthy relationships, identity exploration and sexual education. Lena is a very curious person who loves encouraging people to follow their dreams and feels honored to support someone in their journey, once that trust is developed. When not working, Lena likes to spend her time dancing, listening to music, being in nature or hanging out by the river.
