Do you struggle to feel safe and calm in your life? Are you living in a state of hypervigilance or shutdown? Together we can take a closer look at how your childhood adversities have impacted your adult life. I would be honoured to be your guide as you learn how to become more emotionally aware of your personal patterns, emotional triggers and relationship tendencies influenced by your childhood. Childhood trauma can often go unrecognized, just because the trauma you experienced was not a big T trauma (natural disaster, severe accident) does not mean it did not have an adverse effect on your sense of self and your relationships.

I offer in-person trauma informed psychotherapy where we can integrate parts work (viewing the self through the lens of structural dissociation), EMDR (evidence based treatment for big T and small T traumas). My goal is to help you feel like your past trauma is where it belongs, in the past. Together we will honour your pace and rebuild self-worth and agency

My style is relational, psychodynamic and trauma informed. I utilize and I am trained in the following therapy modalities: EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization Reprocessing), DBR (Deep Brain Reorienting), Structural Dissociation (Parts Work), DBT (Dialectical Behavioural Therapy)

At some point in our lives we often come to realize what may have been working for us is no longer working - this could be a relationship, a job or behaviours. Through exploring your past relationship dynamics and core beliefs that have developed since childhood my hope is to help you better understand why you are the way you are. With increased self-awareness you can implement powerful change.
