PTSD/Trauma
The Art of Rest
Life Coach, M.S. Psychology
Dagny is trained as a research psychologist who spent four years studying the biomedical markers of sleep, mindfulness, and self-compassion —all from the lens of the stress-response and nervous system lens. In this training, Trauma and PTSD are two major compenets Dagny is passionate about. Additionally, Dagny understands the ins and outs of what trauma and PTSD do to the human experience and finds a compassionate way forward. When addressing trauma and PTSD Dagny helps teach and guide on how stress impacts our body, and what to do when things like sleep become elusive, social problems become larger, and anxiety or depression creep in the backdoor. Her tactics range from state-of-the-art stress science that helps pull out different elements of stress-health as well as dives into contemplative practices like dreamwork and behavioral routines around stress and sleep-related anxiety. She is highly successful at helping folks find a restful night and restful life, regardless of how long it's been since they've had one.

Licensed Professional Counsellor, CCC, MPS, M.Div
As a trauma-informed counselling therapist, I have special training in EMDR and Internal Family Systems, two evidence-based practices that work explicitly to bring healing to our traumatic wounds. These modalities have facilitated the healing of my own traumas, and I'm excited to witness how effective they are in bringing healing to those with whom I work.

Charlie Young
Counsellor/Therapist, RCC #22791
Trauma counselling here goes at the pace your nervous system can tolerate — trauma's effects are what your system learned to do for protection, and those mechanisms often linger long after the threat has passed, leaving people unable to rest even when nothing is wrong, or unsafe in their own body. I work with both single-event trauma and the kind that accumulates over a childhood, a relationship, or years of discrimination, and the pacing is the same either way: stability first, then slowly stepping into what feels safe at your own pace. Trauma lives in the body as much as in memory, so somatic work — attention to breath, tension, and what your nervous system is doing in the room — is part of how I work, and I check in constantly about pace so you never have to touch anything you don't want to. I'm a queer and trans RCC providing virtual therapy across BC, so if you've tried trauma therapy that pushed too hard too fast, or want to do this work with someone who understands the queer and trans context it happened in, that's what I offer — and I'll use your name and pronouns from our first contact. Sessions are 50 minutes by secure video and for trauma work I recommend starting weekly or every other week; during the free 15-minute consult we'll talk about what brings you to counselling and how I can help.
