I have helped those struggling with PTSD, traumatic events, and psychological injury for many years and have come to understand the overwhelming toll this can have on a person's life and sense of safety in the world. I provide a safe space to explore your past, and am equipped with the training and tools to help you live with relief from flashbacks, nightmares, and a constant feeling on edge. Help is available and PTSD is treatable!
Trauma and PTSD symptoms often have very negative and distressing effects on people’s family and intimate relationships, work and career, and quality of life. Therapy and trauma counselling is a key and highly effective method for helping to process and resolve trauma.
Trauma and post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) (as well as C-PTSD) can profoundly impact an individual's mental and emotional well-being. Just as each traumatic experience or experiences are unique so are the ways in which we each respond and process them. There isn’t a ‘one size fits all’ approach when it comes to trauma therapy but with new research we do know that trauma is stored in the body. I am a trauma informed Processwork (Process Oriented) Psychotherapist as well as Somatic Experiencing informed. I provide a safe, supportive, non-judgmental space for you to gradually work through your traumatic experiences to regain a sense of control, and ultimately reclaim your life. Please read more about the therapy I provide for a deeper understanding of how I can help.
