      <image:caption>I am excited to be part of the amazing team at CONNECT Saanich Peninsula and work alongside the Brain Injury Team at Island Health, as we bring the incredible culture and transformative Life Redesign Model to the Peninsula. With a nursing background and lived experience with a family member who had a traumatic brain injury, it is a full-circle moment for me to be part of a team that supports people to reach for their life goals and dreams, as they redesign their lives after a brain injury or stroke. It is an honour to promote the culture of CONNECT and provide a meaningful place, where our team can share their incredible passion and grow in their careers.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>My name is Anna Schnute, and I am the Nutrition Coach (Registered Dietitian) at CONNECT Saanich. I work closely with the people I support, along with their family and Life Redesign Coaches, to support their personal nutrition goals. I believe that nutrition is not a one-size-fits-all formula—it's a deeply personal experience that touches every part of who we are: physically, mentally, emotionally, socially and spiritually. My coaching is rooted in a whole foods approach, focusing on natural, minimally processed foods that support long-term wellness and vitality. Through personalized guidance, I help people explore the connections between what they eat and how they feel, encouraging mindful choices that foster balance, resilience, and lasting health.</image:caption>

      <image:title>People - Jacob Houston - Mental Wellness Coach</image:title>
      <image:caption>As a Mental Wellness Coach, my primary goal is to build strong rapport with the individuals I serve. Developing trust allows me to better understand their experiences and learn from them in ways that inform my practice. Throughout my professional career, I have worked with a broad spectrum of people, from those in low-income housing settings to individuals in privatized mental health and addictions treatment. These experiences have shaped my understanding of the diverse challenges people face. I have training in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavioural Therapy (DBT), and Cognitive Processing Therapy (CPT), and I employ an integrative approach that draws from these modalities to best support each individual’s unique needs.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>As an independence coach, I believe in the importance of participating in meaningful everyday activities--such as self-care, home management, work, hobbies, and life roles--to support people's health and well-being. I enjoy building genuine connections and walking alongside individuals, their families, and other fellow coaches to support their ability to live their fullest lives. Outside of work, my other valued occupations include cherishing time with family and friends, adventuring outdoors and exploring off-the-beaten paths both near and far.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>Play Coach (Recreation Therapist) My role focuses on supporting people to find joy in their lives through participation in their recreation and leisure interests. This could be an activity they participated in previously, are currently enjoying, or are interested in exploring. Everyone is looking for something a little bit different when they come to CONNECT. This may include wanting to volunteer, going for a walk in the conservation area, or planning a special event. By meeting people where they are at, and “doing with, not for”, we are able to support each person to participate in activities/hobbies that are meaningful and purposeful to them, while building valuable life skills.</image:caption>
