Heal(ing) Trauma Therapy
Counsellor/Therapist, Registered Psychotherapist, HBA, MPsy
From a trauma-informed perspective, chronic-pain and illness are both symptomatic of unresolved trauma, both physical and mental. The work we can do will include helping you better understand your health and how your mind and body impact each other. It can include helping you learn how to better cope with your condition, while also doing the processing work to resolve your trauma. It can also include helping you develop stronger self advocacy to better navigate through the health care systems.

Monika Georgieva
Registered Psychotherapist, M.Sc., RP
Living with chronic pain or illness every day can feel like carrying an invisible weight—draining your energy, testing your patience, and leaving you feeling alone or misunderstood. The impact often goes far beyond the physical, touching emotions, relationships, and your sense of self. From my own lived experience, I understand how isolating and overwhelming this can be. In therapy, we’ll create space for your story, build tools to ease stress and overwhelm, and nurture resilience and self-compassion. You don’t have to face this alone—together, we’ll work toward more ease, support, and a renewed sense of hope.

Counsellor/Therapist, CCPCPR.cand, RPC-C
Living with chronic pain can affect every aspect of your life, impacting your mood, relationships, work, and overall sense of well being. Together, we'll explore the emotional and psychological impact of living with persistent pain while developing practical coping strategies to help reduce stress, improve resilience, and enhance your quality of life. Often there is a lot of grief and loss in the pain. My goal is to help you feel supported, regain a sense of control, and live more fully alongside the challenges of chronic pain.

Rakan Himadeh
Somatic Experiencing Practitioner, SEP, ISP Candidate
Chronic pain often reflects a nervous system stuck in activation or survival responses (fight/flight/freeze). SE helps regulate these states, release held tension, and reduce the body’s stress load, which can ease pain and improve overall functioning.

Clayre Sessoms
Registered Psychotherapist, RP, CCC, ATR-BC
Living with chronic pain or illness fundamentally changes your relationship with your environment, a reality compounded by a medical system that frequently dismisses marginalised or complex identities. I offer a slow, gentle online space in Vancouver to process the complex emotional grief, nervous system exhaustion, and isolation that physical suffering brings. Together, we will use somatic tracking to listen to your body's messages with kindness, moving toward a collaborative and compassionate relationship with your physical self.
