Shaniah Quadras-Phillipps

Welcome to Sacred Spaces—I’m Shaniah, a Registered Clinical Counsellor (RCC #18737) with a Master’s in Marriage and Family Therapy (MA-MFT) from Trinity Western University. Counselling has always been my sacred calling and I believe that true change emerges when we have a safe space to explore all parts of our experience.

 

I specialize in working with individuals and couples navigating emotional and relational challenges, religious trauma, spiritual and life transitions, C-PTSD, psychedelic integration, anxiety, depression, and self-worth issues. Using a systemic, trauma-informed, and somatic-based perspective—including modalities like Internal Family Systems (IFS), Somatic Therapy, Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT), and Accelerated Experiential Dynamic Psychotherapy (AEDP)—I aim to equip you with practical tools and interventions that foster lasting progress, both during and after our sessions.

 

As a witchy, tarot-friendly therapist familiar with earth-based spiritual traditions, I’m fascinated by helping people tap into their own inner guidance system. I respect all religious traditions and recognize that spirituality is a personal journey—you can be spiritual whether or not you consider yourself religious. Together, we can reflect on your past experiences with religion and explore the role you want spirituality to play in your life. My approach is spiritually-integrative and holistic, using projective tools like tarot for personal growth if that resonates with you.

 

I’m LGBTQ+ and neurodivergent-friendly, committed to making counseling fit you—not the other way around. My goal is for you to experience your personal power and help you live fearlessly. I bring humor, creativity, and a relaxed yet professional vibe to our sessions, adapting therapy to meet your unique needs without compromising on quality or depth. I’m not afraid to dive deep and am emotionally adept at navigating the complexities of healing.

 

I take great pride in the progress and success of my clients and am honored to journey alongside you in this sacred exploration. Let’s work together to unpack the mental and emotional blocks that might be keeping you from maintaining healthy relationships and living authentically. You deserve to live a life that feels whole, empowered, and true to who you are.

 

If you feel a resonance here, I invite you to reach out. Let’s embark on this transformative journey together.
