Supporting journeys
My name is Sophia Ali and I am here to support you on your healing journey. As a registered social worker, I will work with you as you find your own inner wisdom to move forward.
My education background consists of a Bachelor of Arts (Psychology) from University of Manitoba, Bachelor of Social Work from University of Manitoba and a Master’s in Business Administration from Athabasca University. I am registered as a Social Worker with the Manitoba College for Social Workers and with the Ontario College of Social Workers and Social Service Workers.
Born in Winnipeg, Manitoba, and raised by immigrant parents from Pakistan, I possess a deep understanding of the intricate intergenerational dynamics, often engaging and navigating through their complexities. Guided by Islamic principles and values, I am dedicated to a constant pursuit of self-improvement as a dedicated Muslim and an individual.
As a parent myself, I am well acquainted with the unique trials and tribulations involved in raising children as I strive to incorporate faith, spirituality and culture, while also instilling independence, compassion, resilience and integrity.
Optimizing your organization
Backed by a wealth of experience in social work and leadership, I bring a compassionate approach to every project. My core values of empathy and understanding are infused into the strategies I employ, ensuring that contractual projects resonate with real needs, inspire meaningful engagement, and yield actionable insights.
Holding space for you
Life is hard and at times, we need to be able to ask for help. I promise to provide a compassionate, caring, supportive and non judgmental environment where I will hold space for you, your feelings and emotions and help leverage your own wisdom to move forward.
Counselling is a journey to better understand yourself, your situation and others. It would be an honor to walk with you on this journey.
