Somatic Therapists in Lumsden, SK
In this space, mistakes are expected, met with curiosity rather than judgment, and are part of learning and growth. Because let's be real, the current climate of the 21st century is complex, ever-changing, anxiety-ridden, and honestly… chaotic. To survive, counsellors need a place where they can be themselves, feel confident, reflect, and feel supported in their emotionally demanding role as a professional. The purpose of supervision is to gain confidence and competency in your practice. I primarily work with Social Workers and Canadian Certified Counsellors (CCC’s) in private practice settings.

Not only have we have spent a lot of time studying and learning approaches that REALLY help move the needle - like somatic work, EMDR, mindfulness, parts work, yoga, and group work - but we've also traversed our own inner wilderness.
You’re feeling stuck, overwhelmed and disconnected and you’re tired of the quick fixes. They don’t work. You want to dive deeper: to get out of your head, explore your inner world, heal from your past hurts, and let go of the unhelpful stuff you've been taught. You are ready for things to shift, and to feel more like yourself (again, or for the first time). You want to understand why you feel anxious, reactive, overwhelmed, disconnected, burnout or depressed so that you can actually CHANGE your patterns and feel more connected to yourself and others. You're ready for a shift - to feel more calm, joyful, present and authentic.

I specialize in working alongside neurodivergent individuals and their families, drawing on years of experience and a deep respect for diverse ways of thinking and being. I understand the complex and often invisible barriers you might face when navigating a world that isn’t always built with neurodiversity in mind. Whether you're dealing with transitions, friendship challenges, bullying or exclusion, identity-related shame, or the pain of feeling misunderstood — you're not alone. Many of my clients come in unsure of how to put their experiences into words, and that’s completely okay. I am here to meet you where you are at!

I do have a strong leaning toward somatic work, though will use cognitive behavioral and mindfulness tools as well.
Something Different! If you're looking for someone to help push you to places you can't get to yourself, I'm that kind of therapist. If you know you need to do some serious internal work, I can guide you through it. If you know that your current thinking, and behavior is holding you back from the life you desire, let's get to work. Life is too short to keep running up against the same obstacles time and time again, waiting for something to change. You are the obstacle. . . AND you are the change you're looking for. If this makes sense, know that your love and compassion for yourself is the healing you're looking for.

Somatic Counsellors
How does somatic therapy work?
Somatic therapy is a form of treatment that focuses on how the body and mind are interconnected. In this approach, physical symptoms are addressed because they may in fact signal emotional distress. Somatic therapists combine mindfulness, talk therapy, breathwork, yoga, dance, and physical manipulations of the body to help patients become more attuned to what their body is telling them.
Is EMDR a somatic therapy?
EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) is a form of somatic therapy, as it incorporates mental and physical principles. EMDR involves remembering a traumatic experience while allowing one’s eyes to track a side-to-side visual stimulus from a therapist. This lateral eye movement is believed to diminish the painful power of the memory so that it can be discussed with a therapist.
Is somatic therapy evidence-based?
Somatic therapy has been researched and studied, and some forms of somatic therapy are found to be effective in treating a wide range of conditions. Because somatic therapy encompasses many techniques, some, such as EMDR and meditation, have been studied more than others.
What is somatic trauma therapy?
Somatic trauma therapy is based on the idea that when people experience trauma, they can become stuck in the “freeze” part of a “fight, flight, or freeze” response. In this state, trauma can manifest itself both mentally and physically—through tension in the muscles, anxiety, and stress. Popular forms of somatic trauma therapy include EMDR, sensorimotor therapy, and somatic experiencing.
