Homa Houshmand MSC, CCC

Hello friends! My name is Homa Houshmand. My pronouns are she/her and I am the owner and operator of Positive Perspectives. I am currently working and living in the city of Winnipeg, located on Treaty 1 Territory.

I started a solo in private practice in 2014, and now am beyond grateful to have had the opportunity to build an incredible team of practitioners who align with the mission and values of Positive Perspectives.

As a therapist and a mom of two toddlers myself, I very honestly understand the challenges that can come along with not only parenting, but the family planning and pregnancy stages too. I am honoured to be able to bring these perspectives to my mental health and psychotherapy practice.

I enjoy working collaboratively with caregivers who are feeling stuck in their identity, overwhelmed with their new roles, or simply curious to unpack parts of themselves as they move through life transitions. Whether this shows up as grief, trauma, anxiety or depression, please know that all parts of you are welcome in my space.

I operate from a feminist based and culturally diverse lens and my therapeutic approach relies heavily on each individuals own strengths and wisdom. I commonly use a blend of practices from Mindfulness Based Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, Positive Psychology, Internal Family Systems and Narrative Therapy.

In parenting, two things can almost always be true.
