Hello! My name is Xu Wang (they/them) and I am the creator of Artfeels Counselling and Art Therapy.

Colonially, I’m known as a Registered Clinical Counsellor (RCC # 14331) and an Art Therapist.

I’m a “therapish” blending anti-oppressive and decolonizing approaches to support BIPOC, trans, queer, disabled, neurodivergent, and parenting communities. My intention is to create a space where people’s experiences and identities are honoured through openness, vulnerability and a bit of magick.

    Talk and Art Therapy

    I offer talk and art therapies grounded in feminist, narrative, somatic, and Internal Family Systems (IFS) approaches. I also draw on shadow work and depth psychology to explore the unconscious as a path to transformation. Rooted in anti-oppressive practice, my work helps deconstruct and reshape your experiences. Through art and examining systemic influences, we co-create meaning and make space for every part of you to be heard.

    Hormone Readiness Assessment

    As a trans-affirming practitioner, I offer hormone readiness assessment (AKA Hormone Care Planning) for clients seeking gender-affirming care, following WPATH guidelines to provide compassionate, informed, and individualized support throughout their journey.

    Consultation and Mentorship

    I offer clinical supervision for practicum students and mentorship for community healers. My role is to support those seeking to decolonize care and radicalize psychotherapy, working together to dismantle systemic barriers.

    Group and Workshops

    I specialize in designing and facilitating art therapy groups and experiential workshops, exploring intersecting identities through art and play.

    I'm currently exploring the possibility of a pilot play-therapy group focused on video-game-assisted healing experiences
