Your mind understands your story, but your body hasn't found peace yet. For women and mothers navigating the silent weight of daily life, it can feel like a series of plateaus. You are doing everything right, yet you remain stuck in survival mode. This exhaustion often ripples through the family. I see it in children and youth carrying hurdles they do not yet have the words to describe. When a person feels depleted or a child struggles, these plateaus can make meaningful change feel impossible. I provide a space where you are truly understood, allowing the heavy layers to finally lift.
I’m Sena, a Registered Social Worker with a Masters of Social Work. As a specialized EMDR therapist, I help adults and young people move through what "just talking" cannot reach. I use Sandtray and Play-based EMDR to help children process trauma through creativity, and I offer adults a space that is both supportive and focused on active processing.
At my practice, your whole self is welcome. You do not have to set aside your culture or the complicated parts of your story, including the sting of discrimination and the weight of your roles, to find healing. If you need a space where you feel truly gotten, I invite you to email me to set up a free, 15-minute phone consultation to see if we are a good fit.
