When we’ve experienced trauma, or ongoing stressors, our nervous system adapts to protect us—but those survival patterns can leave us feeling stuck, anxious, disconnected, & overwhelmed. You might notice repeating cycles in relationships, struggles with trust or self-worth, or difficulty regulating emotions. Maybe you’re navigating addiction / alcoholism, codependency, or the impact of a loved one’s substance use. Whatever your struggle, change & healing are possible. Senvea's counsellors create a safe space to explore what’s keeping you stuck, restore a sense of inner security, & reconnect with a life of meaning and fulfilment.
