It takes an incredible team of individuals to do the work we do.
Meet Loretta, one of Dragonfly Centre’s Counsellors. She travels to rural and remote communities to meet clients in person as well supporting them virtually. Loretta shares with us what she loves most about her role, and much more!
What inspired you to work at Dragonfly?
What inspired me to work at Dragonfly was my experience working with people who have experienced sexual violence.
What is the most rewarding part of your job?
The most rewarding part of my job is when the people we work with say they are having a much better quality of life and know that their trauma does not define who they are anymore.
What surprised you the most about your position?
What surprised me most about my position is that working remotely actually meant working from home and not working in a remote community (my understanding of what I would be doing). I love working remotely as an Outreach trauma counsellor, as well as travelling to support communities in need.
Share a fun fact about yourself?
A fun fact about myself is I help my mom on the Pow Wow trail in a mobile concession booth!
