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!

Counsellor/Therapist, Tracey Nguyen, Holistic Advanced Nurse Psychotherapist RN, MN
You are here because relationships and life for you have been an emotional and spiritual battle through your drained soul and body. Long-term narcissistic abuse, BPD, codependency and complex trauma have been a journey of living in survival mode. You are tired of suffering and not living better. You want better than this, and yes, you can have it. Many clients have told me they have been missing something from therapy after countless therapists - deep, soulful relationship healing and actionable steps that get into your heart of soul wounds, not just talk therapy and endlessly validating feelings. While we do this, we do so much more. Being in therapy with me is like experiencing the deep end of you with a professional best friend, shaman and prophetic healer in tune with your soul, body and spirit.
I will help you heal your complex trauma, navigate difficult relationships and guide you toward the reclamation of your soul, voice and power.
Evidence-based, integrative, holistic, complex trauma-informed DBT, mindfulness, Gestalt method and faith-based, I don't leave any part of you out of the equation - mind-body-soul-spirit healing. Where science, natural intelligence and God intersect. All parts of you deserve therapy at this deep level. If you're still reading and feel it, book a consultation with me. I look forward to connecting with you

Matthew Pitts
Registered Psychotherapist, Master of Arts in Counselling Psychology
Many of the people I work with are thoughtful, capable, and driven, yet internally struggling with relationship conflict, emotional overwhelm, anxiety, career stress, or recurring interpersonal patterns that leave them feeling stuck. Therapy can offer a space to better understand these experiences, navigate difficult emotions and relationships, and develop more grounded and meaningful ways forward. My approach is collaborative, reflective, compassionate and direct when helpful. I aim to create a space where clients can explore difficult emotions honestly, while feeling supported, understood, and challenged toward growth. Prior to becoming a Registered Psychotherapist, I worked as a family law lawyer. That experience informs my understanding of conflict, emotional strain, and the complexity people carry beneath outward competence. My life experience also includes marriage, parenthood, and work within finance/asset management which shapes the perspective I bring into therapy. In couples work, I help partners better understand recurring cycles of conflict so that more emotionally honest, insightful and productive conversations may emerge. Whether for individual therapy or couples therapy, finding the right fit is essential. I invite you to reach out for a brief consultation to see if we would work well together.
