Inspired by my Indigenous roots, created for everyone!

“The Healing Blanket is an incredibly powerful and transformative tool that we have used in the shelter to support survivors of violence. It provides a safe, comforting space for healing, resilience, and empowerment. Through this program, survivors are guided on a journey of self-discovery, reflection, and emotional restoration.

Sacha is truly exceptional, bringing warmth, wisdom, and deep empathy to every workshop. With a compassionate and trauma-informed approach, Sacha creates an environment where people feel heard, valued, and supported in their healing process. This program has been a source of profound comfort and strength, reaffirming the power of collective healing and community support.”

“Sacha brings positivity, inspiration, healing and empowerment to the world through her Healing Blanket workshop. Her genuine passion for healing and empowerment shines through every aspect of her workshop, uplifting every member of our group. Many attendees reached out to request that Sacha come back again.

Sacha brought skill, sincerity and dedication to her work, and had a profound impact on each of us.

We highly recommend Sacha’s Healing Blanket Workshop and highlight her blend of compassion, professionalism, knowledge, and passion which makes her a remarkable facilitator. We have, and will continue to hire her for more events.

“It is with great enthusiasm that I endorse Sacha’s inspiring Healing Blanket initiative that has proven to have a positive impact in the world.

Sacha has created a powerful and inclusive program rooted in Indigenous culture while being culturally inclusive to everyone. Her workshops promote a positive mindset, and promote emotional wellness. This creative process of making a personalized blanket provides an opportunity for self-expression, emotional regulation, personal insight, intention setting, reflection, development of emotional skills, and promotes compassion and empathy for oneself and others.

Her ability to hold a safe space and guide participants through an empowering process has been consistently praised by shelters, educational partners, & community groups.

Sacha brings a unique and much needed offering - one that promotes emotional intelligence, mental wellness, and cultural education. She is highly professional, deeply compassionate, and gifted in holding safe and empowering spaces for both youth and adults.
