Indra Leemrijse
Social Worker
MSW, RSW
I am a registered social worker & therapist at the clinic. I have over 25 years of experience in a number of diverse settings. I currently work as a school social worker, supporting adolescents & their families.
​
As a therapist I feel it a privilege to hear people’s stories & I strive to create a safe & comfortable environment to help clients feel at ease. I believe that being heard, understood & validated is at the heart of a therapeutic relationship. Everyone has inherent gifts & I am passionate about empowering people to recognize their own strengths & purpose.
​
I use a wide range of modalities to best meet the needs of my clients including CBT, Narrative Therapy & Motivational Interviewing. An additional area of interest in my practice is the power of the mind, body connection. It is amazing to witness the motivation & improved mental wellbeing that comes from physical activity. Where appropriate, I enjoy helping clients to develop an understanding of the relationship between our physical & mental health.
