All over the world people experience suffering. You may have experienced a traumatic event that is remembered, causing distress and compromising your functioning. Or the memory of such an event may be long lost in your past. Current distress is often about coping in ways that no longer function. Very often the face of unrecognized trauma is anxiety and depression. The good news is that it is not necessary to know of and recount specific events to recover. Together, we can uncover what's no longer serving you, focusing on your present experience to create space for growth, balance and well-being.
I employ a variety of psychotherapy approaches. When working with adults or older teens, I draw from techniques that focus on understanding emotions, relationships, and body awareness. For children and younger teens, I use playful and creative methods to help them express themselves in a way that feels natural and safe.
I have extensive experience working with many expressions of trauma history including the interpersonal and complex trauma of childhood abuse. Over the years, I’ve worked with clients of all ages, from as young as three years old to older adults, adapting my approach to suit each stage of life. I would be honoured to support you, call me today!
