Adrienne Sharma-Richardson PhD MEd RP OCT
Registered Psychotherapist, Registered Gestalt Psychotherapist Somatic Experiencing Practitioner Gottman Trained Couples Therapist
As a gestalt psychotherapist, who pairs gestalt training with somatic experiencing I can help support you in healing from your trauma.
No one in the Niagara Region utilizes the combination of these therapies and applies them to working with couples in crisis. Gottman (couples) and Post Induction Therapy training (relational/developmental trauma)
I am sorry to say but popular approaches to healing trauma like CBT will provide only temporary relief at best.
If you want to get to the root of your trauma and heal somatic experiencing (SE) is what you need and when supported with the power of relational gestalt therapy you will shift your shit!
SE focuses on regulating your nervous system.
With SE work trauma responses are completed and energy is released back into the system and with this the resolution and disappearance of physical complaints, including headaches, digestive problems, and pain syndromes can be resolved, and emotional regulation can be restored.
I will teach you how to work with your stress response - the body's innate alarm system in response to a perceived danger, also called the "Fight or Flight" response.
It is highly adaptive to danger and human survival when threats are physical, but less so when threats are psychological, or imaginary, among other somatic and relational skills.
I have been trained under Dr Abi Blakeslee part of Dr Peter A Levine's legacy group out of California for Somatic Experiencing and the late great Dr Bud Feder the author of Beyond the Hot Seat was on my dissertation committee overseeing a phenomenological study of the effectiveness of a gestalt therapy group I created to reduce stress in working informal caregivers of the elderly. I named the group process Stressed WOW (We Overloaded with Work).
Gestalt therapy is an extremely complex psychotherapy, too complex to describe in this short space.
The power of its effectiveness can only be experienced.
Most present day therapies have stolen bits and pieces of its praxis.
Get the whole again with a holistic, here and now, experiential therapy.
I am here for you... I've got your six!

Maddie (Matin) Motamed
Registered Psychotherapist, Master's in Counselling Psychology and Psychotherapy
In order to understand ourselves and our minds on a deeper level, I believe therapy can be the path to attaining mental clarification. We all have been exposed to situations and events that have left us feeling confused. It is vital to delve into our current and past issues, unpack our thoughts, and resolve areas that impact our current way of living. Therapy can help us to see our problems with a fresh and non-judgemental lens while allowing us to become aware of our old patterns. Through therapy, we can learn innovative coping skills to enhance our lives. I believe in forming an authentic therapeutic relationship with respect to the client’s cultural background. With a suitable therapeutic approach that tailors’ individual needs, one can face covert feelings with clarity. Therapy is a safe and non-judgemental space where individuals can unpack their deepest emotions and learn to process them effectively. Therapy can enable you to get deeper into inner child work and parenting yourself to heal your trauma wounds and move forward in life.

Registered Social Worker, MSW RSW
Are you hiding your pain? Feeling like you are barely holding on? Managing to function but no one else knows how you really feel inside? Do you feel overwhelmed, inadequate, exhausted and are questioning yourself - your ability to cope and juggle all of life's demands? Do you feel that you are struggling in your relationships and feeling uncertain, confused, or lonely? My passion is working with adults who are trying to manage life & their career. Young adults who are finding their place in the world, coping with relationships, demanding education, and new careers. It is my hope to provide a comfortable place for people to explore feelings that are difficult to share anywhere else. To help people slow life down, build confidence, make changes, and develop new ways of coping. Life happens, events occur that throw us all for a loop and can change our confidence and ability to cope and can lead to stress, anxiety, and feelings of depression.
