Jennifer McDonald (Nurture Me Counselling)
Counsellor/Therapist, Registered Therapeutic Counsellor, Certified Trauma-Informed Coach
Do you feel disconnected from yourself? Do you push away the painful memories and experinces? Are you fearful of facing those experinces and this is keeping you from truly taking back your life and healing from your experience? Trauma affects us all very differently. There is no one way to navigate the complex emotions, feelings and biological changes that occur in the presence of trauma. Together, we can journey down this path to self awareness and discover your truths. Once we come to understand the beliefs, behaviours and emotions that come with trauma, we will be able to turn our focus to learning more about how to heal from them and work towards a life that you feel in control of.

Dr. Christine Sauer
Life Coach, MD;ND
Trauma and post-traumatic stress are common. may of us suffered adverse childhood events, not aways are we aware of it. Traumatic events, depending on your genetic and other "landscape" of your brain, can be permanently encoded in the amygdala in your brain. This is what causes the symptoms of PTSD. Psychosensory methods, like EMDR, EFT and Havening Techniques and Havening Touch, when administered by an experienced Practitioner, can remove the stress-encoding from the event memory and so remove the symptoms that may bother you and allow a new and more helpful way of processing the event/s that caused the symptoms.
