You don’t need to explain why you’re tired, overwhelmed, or stuck.
If you’ve been living in survival mode, feeling disconnected from yourself or unsure how to move forward, therapy can help you feel steadier, safer, and more like yourself again. I specialize in working with trauma, complex trauma (C-PTSD), and nervous system overwhelm. I support adults who have experienced chronic, relational, and identity-impacting trauma, including survivors of domestic abuse, sexual violence, and human trafficking. Many of the clients I work with have tried therapy before and felt it didn’t go deep enough or move too fast.
My approach is paced, collaborative, and trauma-informed, with a strong focus on safety, stabilization, and meaningful change. I support adolescents and adults experiencing:
• Complex trauma & C-PTSD
• PTSD & developmental trauma
• Anxiety, panic, & phobias
• Depression & chronic stress
• Emotional dysregulation & shutdown
• Shame, guilt & self blame
• Domestic abuse & sexual assault (IPV)
• Addiction & coping behaviours
My work integrates evidence-based and trauma-informed modalities, including:
• EMDR
• Somatic trauma therapy
• Parts work/ego state work
• CBT, DBT & REBT
• Emotionally Focused Individual Therapy (EFIT)
• Motivational Interviewing
• Solution-Focused Therapy
• Polyvagal informed therapy
