Teo Counselling Services
Registered Psychotherapist, MACP, CCC, RP (Qualifying)
Dissociative disorders can often arise as a coping mechanism when individuals experience overwhelming stress or trauma. When emotions or memories become too intense to process, the mind may "shut down" or "disconnect" as a way to protect itself. I specialize in helping individuals with dissociative disorders, utilizing techniques that help expand their window of tolerance—the range of emotional intensity a person can experience before feeling overwhelmed. By using EMDR, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), and mindfulness, I support clients in processing past trauma, increasing emotional regulation, and integrating fragmented aspects of the self, ultimately promoting healing and emotional stability.

Semra Lamky, Emotional Peace Psychotherapy
Registered Psychotherapist, Registered Psychotherapist (RP), Canadian Certified Counsellor (CCC), MACP, Bsc
I provide trauma-informed support for individuals experiencing dissociative disorders, including depersonalization, derealization, and dissociative identity disorder (DID). Dissociation is often a response to overwhelming or unresolved trauma and can leave you feeling disconnected from your body, identity, or reality. In our work together, I create a safe and grounded therapeutic space where we gently explore your experiences at your pace. Using integrative approaches such as EMDR, parts work, and psychodynamic therapy, I help you build safety, self-awareness, and inner cohesion, supporting your journey toward healing and wholeness.
