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!

Angie Kingma (Mindfulness for Health)
Registered Psychotherapist, OT Reg.(Ont.), Registered Psychotherapist
Whatever the reasons that brings you here, I believe that the ups and downs of life provide opportunities (and sometimes hidden blessings) to learn about ourselves and life in general. You will learn how to restore within yourself a sense of balance and well-being, and to cultivate a renewed awareness and sense of presence in your life. After a thorough assessment, we'll begin to work on the issues that are most important to you. You'll develop insight into how past experiences and thinking processes may be continuing to influence your well-being and to identify the issues that are most troublesome. You will also be guided through the process of clarifying your values, passions, strengths and resources so that they can be drawn upon to mobilize you in a positive direction. With over 22 years of experience, you can have peace of mind that I am a very caring, non-judgmental, compassionate and skilled therapist. I offer a complimentary 15-minute telephone consultation to see if it's a good 'fit' and a good vibe so feel free to reach out.
