Hi! My areas of interest and expertise include working with people who have survived trauma and sexual abuse. My first goal is to build rapport and a trusting relationship with clients, and focus on establishing a sense of safety and stability. Safety and stability is an important component in allowing successful trauma processing and resolution to occur. I also enjoy working with adolescents; having once been a teen in need of additional support, I am able to empathize and quickly connect with young people. Other topics focused on at my practice are BPD, mood disorders, anger management, self-esteem, and relational issues.
I would describe myself as warm, empathetic and client-centred. I strongly believe that you are the expert of your own life. I work from a feminist trauma-informed lens. I incorporate aspects of CBT, DBT, EMDR, and Polyvagal theory into my practice.
I have a dedicated team at Taylor Brydges Counselling Therapy and we now offer support for substance use concerns, ADHD, perinatal/postpartum support, couples counselling, and more.
Please feel free to book a free 15-minute consultation where we can discuss how I can best support you in your healing journey.
