Kaeleigh has worked as a Physiotherapist since 2012 in both private and public sectors, and has practiced in Yellowknife since 2015. She only offers pelvic floor physiotherapy services and has extensive training, including treatment for bladder leakage, bowel control issues, pelvic organ prolapse, children’s pelvic floor issues, diastasis rectus abdominus (abdominal muscle separation) and pain disorders (e.g., pain with intimacy, bladder pain, prostatitis). Her treatment philosophy centers around the importance of time: scheduling longer appointments to ensure a thorough assessment and treatment plan is developed, giving clients sufficient amounts of time to incorporate lifestyle changes and exercises into their daily routines, and acknowledging the body and nervous system need time to adapt and change in response to treatment.

Kaeleigh enjoys a variety of outdoor activities (snowboarding, running, hiking, mountain and fat biking), plays the violin in the Borderless Art Movement orchestra, and has recently returned to school to pursue a PhD in Public Health.

Brad Steyn is a Registered Clinical Counsellor (RCC) and Canadian Certified Counsellor (CCC). His approach to counselling involves an extensive background in mentoring, teaching, training and advocacy work ranging from working with youth and adults in the non-profit sector and the academy (high schools and colleges). At the moment, Brad works for the Yellowknife School District as their “Community Liaison Counsellor.” Before that, Brad had been involved in managing a downtown Vancouver shelter, with all the complexities of caring for the most vulnerable people in that city, as well as using his counselling and experience to assist these people with their mental health challenges. Brad sees his primary role as a counsellor as helping clients find the answers to their current predicament/s. His passion is to work collaboratively with clients to empower them to negotiate their way forward and experience the desired outcomes they are looking for. It is Brad’s desire to see people embrace their “true selves,” to be empowered to become the person they were created to be.

Brad’s approach to counselling is multi-faceted, incorporating a number of therapeutic lenses, which include Existential Therapy, Person Centred Therapy, Narrative Therapy, Systems and Cognitive Behavioural Therapy. His therapeutic areas of interest include family history, life transitions, depression, anxiety, grief and loss, trauma, cross-cultural dynamics, justice, empowerment, relationships and the integration of counselling and spirituality. Brad grew up in a divided South African context, and in his late teens and early twenties expressed his opposition to the Apartheid government. As a result, he understands the way people feel the effects of oppression, abuse, disempowerment and discontentment that result from not being able to be or express themselves in an authentic manner.
