Hello

Welcome to my website! I’m Sherry Slejska, a registered social worker and therapist specializing in complex trauma. Since 2019, I have had the privilege of supporting adults who have experienced childhood abuse and neglect. My work is centred around providing a compassionate space where healing and growth can take place.

My Story

I am passionate about helping individuals navigate the emotional challenges and trauma responses that often arise from such experiences. My approach integrates evidence-based therapies, including Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Cognitive Processing Therapy (CPT), Emotional Processing Therapy (EMT), and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT). I also incorporate mindfulness techniques to support emotional regulation and present-moment awareness. Each person I work with is unique, and I tailor my approach to meet their individual needs, with a trauma-informed and culturally sensitive perspective.

​

In addition to my clinical work, I pioneered a support group for survivors of childhood sexual abuse at the Sexual Assault Support Centre of Waterloo Region. I am currently completing my Master’s in Social Work to continue deepening my understanding and ability to support others.

​

When I’m not working with clients, I enjoy kayaking, reading, and playing guitar—activities that help me stay balanced and grounded.

​

This website is designed to offer you insight into my approach, services, and resources for your healing journey. Whether you're seeking therapy or simply exploring your options, I’m here to help. Please feel free to reach out with any questions. I look forward to connecting with you!
