Hi, I’m Elaina!

I’m on a mission to unlock the potential within every learner by revolutionizing education. My passion lies in the art of crafting innovative curricula that hold the key to bridging the gaps in our educational system.

You see, education isn’t just about transmitting information.

It’s about transforming lives.

Imagine a world where learners not only absorb knowledge but also develop the skills to tackle the challenges of our ever-evolving society. This is precisely the power of a well-structured curriculum – it’s a meticulously designed journey that takes students on a transformative path, enabling them to connect deeply with their purpose and instilling a lifelong thirst for knowledge.

If you’re interested in tools that open new opportunities and empower the next generation of change-makers, let’s talk.

Benefits of working with
Dr. Elaina Guilmette

Destigmatize
mental health

With one out of every five individuals facing mental health challenges, it’s imperative to destigmatize mental health in order to ensure they access the necessary support and resources. I guide individuals to cultivate more supportive and inclusive environments.

Empower people to
maintain their wellness

We often put our mental health and wellness last, which results in burnout, stress, and other mental health concerns. I offer a customized and future-proofed toolbox of strategies so you can be more resilient in the face of adversity.

Make groundbreaking
change in learning

Organizations may become archaic when their educational curricula and training initiatives become obsolete and irrelevant. I redefine curriculum development to increase engagement, employee morale, and collaboration.

Construct healthy
relationships

Many workplaces struggle to foster inclusive and positive relationships among students, teachers, and employees. My research-based approach creates environments where people from all backgrounds and identities feel safe, trust is built, and positivity flourishes.

Bridge diverse perspectives
and worldviews

Educational institutions and organizations face the multifaceted challenge of promoting diversity, inclusion, and identity. My wealth of experience coordinating complex perspectives has been proven to create respect, include languages, and provide resources to make lasting change.

“Nurturing Resiliency was an amazing session. Elaina did a fantastic job going on the four pillars but allowed voice and choice and I feel like it really impacted everyone in that session. She allowed us to feel our emotions and validated that what we are feeling is okay and that things will get better.”
Kendall Krawchuk, Teacher, Sun West School Division
“It is crazy to think that 7 months ago I was at the lowest time of my life – as low as thinking about suicide. Having you teach the Mental Wellness 30 course helped me improve the state of my mental health. I honestly think school systems all around Canada should have this class. Thank you for everything you have taught me and thank you for an amazing semester.”
Student, Sun West School Division
“Your words were so moving and your passion for what you do came through so eloquently.”
Shannon Patton, Director of Community Engagement, CMHA Regina Branch

She delivered an engaging and impactful product which we continue to receive rave reviews about.”

“I loved the mental health conversation. It was nice to have an honest, open, and vulnerable conversation about the struggles we face and to truly feel heard.”
Cassandra Kirby, Teacher, Sun West School Division
“I think that Elaina’s Mental Wellness 30 course should be mandatory to take. It is so important, not only for those suffering from poor mental health, but also those behind all the stigma. I want to make a binder of resources from the course so that I will always have them. Maybe if everybody had to take this course, people would be less cruel or judgmental, and be more understanding.”
Student, Sun West School Division
