About
Kaitlin Wu (she/her) is a cisgender, able-bodied, second generation Chinese Canadian immigrant, living and working on the stolen lands of the səl̓ílwətaʔɬ (Tsleil-Waututh), Sḵwx̱wú7mesh (Squamish), and xʷməθkʷəy̓ əm (Musqueam) Nations. Kaitlin specializes in working with marginalized communities and neurodivergent individuals who may be struggling with experiences of invalidation, life transitions, family conflict, relationship challenges, anxiety, and low self-worth. Kaitlin approaches each session with compassion and curiosity as she supports clients in processing and unpacking their lived experiences towards healing. She is firmly committed to creating a safe, nonjudgmental, healing space where clients feel valued, heard, and empowered to step into their transformative self-worth.
Kaitlin holds a person-centered, intesectionalist, social justice framed approach that believes in helping clients unlearn biases, prejudice, and oppressive narratives to reclaim their truth. Kaitlin has also completed EMDR training. She has spent the last 7 years in both educational and community environments working with diverse communicative behaviours as she attunes to the nonverbal messages, emotions, and patterns that often go unnoticed. She strongly believes in fostering an inclusive and safe environment where youth of all abilities feel empowered and supported in their development.
Kaitlin support folks navigating the public mental health system while recognizing the institutional barriers, medical trauma, and oppression that can occur. In particular, Kaitlin is familiar with supporting individuals and loved ones navigate through symptoms of psychosis, schizophrenia, and psychotic disorders. She is committed in supporting folks with symptom management, decolonizing mental health stigmas, fostering self awareness, and bridging community support.
She strongly affirms that every client is to be met with understanding, integrity, and support, regardless of where they are on their journey. Kaitlin wants her clients to know that every version of themselves is deserving of love and acceptance.
Through empathic listening, Kaitlin holds space for her clients to feel safe and seen as they collaboratively navigate the journey of self-healing, self-forgiveness, and self-compassion. Kaitlin would be honoured to walk alongside with her clients as they learn how to regain self-trust and build a peaceful home in themselves.
