You've tried therapy before. You've done the work, named the patterns, read the books. But the body still flinches. The old shame still runs the show.
I'm Bonnie - an Accredited Mental Health Social Worker and EMDR therapist. I work with adults carrying complex trauma and CPTSD, including neurodivergent clients and those exploring identity, sex and sexuality. My practice is kink-aware and non-monogamy affirming.
My practice is paced, collaborative, and nervous-system aware. We work with your system, not against it.
If something here resonates, reach out- we can see if we're a fit.
EMDR is my primary modality, including Flash Technique and protocols adapted for neurodivergent and dissociative presentations. I draw on parts work and schema-informed therapy to reach what sits beneath the symptoms. Sessions are structured, transparent, and never one-size-fits-all. We build the resourcing first, then go where the work needs to go.
Starting therapy isn't easy, especially when you've been let down before. You don't need to have it all figured out, or know where to begin. If you've read this far and something settled, that's enough to start with. Send a message when you're ready. I'll meet you there.
