Dissociative Disorders (DID) Therapists in Halifax, NS
Do you have responses that seem out of alignment with a triggering event, or emotions coming from unknown places, lingering uncomfortably long? Are you or your loved one navigating addiction, recovery, or a mental health condition? Are you curious about developments in the field of psychedelic medicine, or have questions about harm-reduction and integrative meaning making? Perhaps you are having internal conflicts with your self, your identity, allyship and settler status, or life/work direction? Or maybe you just need a confidential, nonjudgmental, supportive space to express yourself?

I am an unapologetic queer, autistic/ND social worker and trauma therapist. I work collaboratively with autistic/ND individuals, families and professionals, offering non-violent, disability/racial/gender justice based healing support. Support is attuned, holistic, depathologizing and decolonizing. My work supports reconnection with self, community and culture. Our neurotypes are not "disordered". Deep healing and liberation come through resisting neurodisablist and sanist systems and finding pathways back to our embodied wisdom, power and JOY!

Life is not always easy. Often we carry symptoms from our past that cause us to struggle on our journey. Talk therapy can help alleviate those difficulties so that you do not have to suffer in silence.

Life can be challenging and sometimes it can be hard to know the steps we need to take to better understand ourselves and live the life we want to live. I work from the perspective that being a human is hard and that we all face struggles throughout our life. While these challenges may be unavoidable, therapy can provide a place to feel seen and help shift your perspective, discover more about yourself, connect with your feelings, and discover meaning from your experiences.

Are you looking for the right fit and just can’t seem to find it? Frustrated by feeling like you’re the one educating the clinicians? I work with clients who have trouble finding professionals who understand them. Clients whose lives, relationships, and understandings differ from the neurotypical, heteronormative, and monogamous centered by western society. I have special interest in working with clients who may describe themselves as belonging to these groups: Neurodiverse, LGBTQIA+, Ethically Non-Monogamous, Kinky, and/or those involved in non-traditional family/relationship dynamics. If this is you, know that you are not alone!

Life brings hardships. You may be burdened by the past, worried about the future, or just struggling to get through the day. You may have distressing thoughts, emotions or habits that get in the way of living the life you seek. You might have trouble coping, while also being reluctant to seek support. I believe that everyone has within them the capacities to live a happy and meaningful life, and yet anyone can get stuck and need help getting back on track. By working together collaboratively and customizing a plan to meet your goals, we can begin to discover and develop your inner strengths and wisdom to find a path forward.

I aim to build a collaborative, reparative relationship and have a non-directive style. You can expect careful listening, emotional attunement and willingness to authentically engage with you. I enjoy bringing in new ideas from ongoing training in both evidence-based and emerging practices and will integrate a variety of approaches, however I typically do not provide highly structured treatment. We will mutually agree upon goals for our time together, and they may shift as therapy progresses.
