Andrew Hartman (they/them) is a queer, Métis, neurodivergent, differently-abled human who wears many hats, as a program evaluator, health & wellness coach, and Founder of Psystem. They’ve worked for years helping others dream of new futures, navigate crisis, take first steps, and capturing experiences to improve access to health services.
Andrew is a psychologist in training, with a focus on applied social interventions leading local and national research projects related to improving access to care for marginalized communities’. The inspiration for Psystem stemmed from Andrew's lived-experience and the experiences they've witnessed in others. Through community research projects and award-winning Masters-thesis on shame and help-seeking. It is the wealth of research, interviews, and passion that Andrew has accumulated in their studies that inspired Psystem’s founding.
Andrew has over eight years experience supporting people as a crisis center operator, vocational advisor, and now as a certified Health & Wellness Coach with a specialization in chronic pain. Andrew is trained and certified in a variety of behavioral modification interventions - motivational interviewing, solution-focused behavioral therapy, cognitive behavioural therapy, somatic experiencing, strength-based coaching, and empowerment coaching.
Andrew has learned, better than almost anyone, how much changes when our pain is seen, accepted, and embraced. Simply being acknowledged is a vital first step towards real healing. Andrew started Psystem because the rest of the world is still figuring this out. Andrew realized that there needed to be alternatives. A different way. A way for others to be seen and heard. A way to heal and regulate, safely.
Hello, I’m Bonnie; I am a descendant of the Metis people of Saskatchewan. My professional and personal background has taught me the inner working of various systems; where I focus on supporting individuals in navigating employment and/or achieving their optimal health. Part of my wisdom comes from personal experiences as a chronic pain warrior, cancer survivor, and witnessing experiences through loved ones. I feel honoured to walk alongside clients during life changing events on their road to new beginnings.
Pain and suffering is a part of life, however, this can often be an overwhelming experience. Navigating these times can be extremely difficult and lonely. I understand how breaking cycles and moving forwards in your life can be difficult. My practice prioritizes providing you with the pieces that help you in living a life with less pain and return to the things you enjoy.
Together we can shape your behaviours, emotions, and thought patterns that move towards long-term sustainable changes. This is accomplished by developing insight and gaining perspective into your lived experiences while helping you build self-compassion and mindful boundaries. I hold space where you feel safe to explore both successes and setbacks, tools and resources, and receive encouragement and support that facilitates movement.

The space holds empathy, curiosity, collaboration, and hope, where together, we will begin to overcome the barriers that may be occurring in your journey. You can look forward to having someone walk alongside you and provide you with the space and support to move towards living your best life.Don’t let anything hold you back a minute longer, book your discovery session today and explore what the future version of yourself could look like!
Aleisha was introduced to Psystem in 2021 and immediately felt a deep appreciation for the company's vision and ethos, jumping on board to lend her administrative skills to help the cogs of the company run smoothly and easily. She loves roles where she can support others so that they are able to show up as their best and brightest; this comes into play in many ways, from supporting the Psystem team, to mothering her two strong-willed Aries boys, and in her passion projects facilitating personal development workshops and one-on-one sessions.
Aleisha feels most fulfilled when she can be in service to the empowerment of individuals, and while her work with Psystem is more indirect and administrative, she loves that she gets to be part of this community that so deeply believes in supporting the whole person on their journey in wellness.
Aleisha is an INFJ Cancer who enjoys baking (mmm, cookies), making lists, dancing, reflective journaling, and apparently crafting a latte every morning only to forget about it until she finds it in the microwave two hours later.
