Through our culture and traditional healing methods, Traditional Healers, Elders and Medicine People help individuals, families and communities strive for balance, harmony and good health. This includes One-on-One Counselling, Medicine-making Workshops, and Ceremonies such as Fasting Camps, Naming and Colours, and Sweat Lodge.
Our Traditional Healing Coordinator supports the program both as a leader and traditional healing provider.
Misiway’s Traditional Healing Program also provides Aboriginal Orientation and Turning Full Circle programs to individuals on probation in the justice system.
Aboriginal Orientation, a 10 circle program, assists individuals to understand the impact of colonization and the legacy of residential schools on First Nation families. It is offered in two groups: Eastern Door for male clients and Women’s Journey for females.
Turning Full Circle, comprised of 13 circle sessions, includes modules on parenting, substance abuse, domestic violence and anger management.
