We will work well together if you want to understand how experiences have shaped who you are, how you respond/react to life events, and if you have a deep desire to move forward with life goals...even if this means parts of you might be hesitant or unsure how to begin. Exploring the past is used to understand the "who you are" and to help guide our work towards the "who you want to become." All parts of you, even the parts that you feel ashamed about or wish would disappear, are honoured, so you can move into a sense of wholeness and being able to respond to life events rather than react in ways that don't make sense to you
I primarily use EMDR, a trauma-informed approach with almost 30 years of research supporting its effectiveness. I love this approach as it allows for conversations when needed, as well as allowing clients to continue processing past experiences, in a supportive way, when it can be difficult to put words to these experiences.
If you reach out to me or someone on our team by email, please share only limited personal details. Our administrative team will follow up to complete intake and schedule your first appointment so our therapists can focus on providing care and support.
