Sometimes dealing with surface issues or reactions doesn't work. Are you unable to deal with life's everyday stresses? Ask yourself, what is at the core of those feelings or behaviours? What is inside you? Do you give yourself permission to feel? Do you feel alone? Everyone has their limit and Im guessing you are at yours. Its time to dig deeper and look at what started it all. To finally deal with the issues that still exist deep inside you. Let me guide you to process your feelings or past traumas. To feel heard and empowered. To be able to finally move forward. To be happy.
I am a Registered Social Worker with a Master of Social Work Degree. I am a member in good standing with the Ontario College of Social Workers and Social Service Workers and the Ontario Association of Social Workers. I use a trauma-focused approach utilizing, EMDR, Somatic Experiencing, Attachment therapy primarily. I use other treatment modalities as well.
I work with clients with a variety of mental health, relationship and trauma issues. I specialize in working with first responders, complex trauma and dissociation. My approach is eclectic and based on the needs and wants of the client.
