About the Instructor
Denisse Horcasitas
I hold a solid background in mental health: I have been a therapist since 2016, with an MSc in Psychology and an MA in Counselling Psychology from McGill University. I’m registered as a Canadian Certified Counsellor (CCC #13398) with the Canadian Counselling and Psychotherapy Association.
Since 2020, mindfulness has been not only an essential part of my personal life, but also the core of my therapeutic approach. In 2023 I began training with the Centre for Mindfulness Canada, a member of the Global Mindfulness Collaborative, and in 2024 I formally began my training as an MBSR facilitator.
My goal is to offer a safe, respectful, evidence-based space where you can explore new ways of relating to yourself and to the world through mindfulness.
