Jackie LeBlanc

I am a visitor to the Coast Salish and Straight Salish Territories. I live and work on the traditional territory of the W’sanec People. My mother was Dene (TliCho and Chipewyan) from Behcho’ko, NT and raised by a Metis family, Henry and Helen Lafferty, and my father is German. I enjoy reading, time alone and time with my family. We have two cats and a dog. My work as a counsellor grows from my perspective as an Indigenous person, which includes connectedness of all things, the importance of family, and that we hold the knowledge to heal.
