Heal(ing) Trauma Therapy
Counsellor/Therapist, Registered Psychotherapist, HBA, MPsy
From a trauma-informed perspective ASD, like ADHD, is understood as whole mind and body dysregulation that results in an inability to quiet all of the noise internally and externally which creates difficulty in directing focus, starting, switching, and completing tasks, and organizing information in clear ways. ASD is not a maladaptive brain, it is a response to trauma (biological/mental/emotional) that has changed the way the brain and nervous system receive information. The work we can do will be to help you better understand your ADHD, learn how to work with your brain and body in ways that are more functional for your ASD, and resolve the root of what is driving the dysregulation in the first place.

Jayne Batten
Counsellor/Therapist, MSc, CT, MPCC, MBACP
I define myself as a “neurodiversity affirming therapist” and feel absolutely honoured to work with neurodiverse individuals and couples. This means I understand and work with autism, ADHD and other neurodiverse groups through the lens of neuroscience. Autism is associated with differences in the brain which result in a divergence from neurotypical standards, in terms of how brains filter and make sense of information. I endeavour to help clients shed misplaced humiliation and a sense of failure by becoming conscious of and removing the notion that ‘typical’ traits are superior. It is the neurodiverse individuals in our society that move humanity along.

Sarah Bickle
Registered Psychotherapist, MPsy., R.P.
Navigating life with ADHD, Austism, or other neurodivergent traits can often feel like a journey of self-discovery and adaptation. I personally understand these challenges, both from my own experience and from years of working with neurodivergent individuals. My approach blends an understanding of neuroscience with a compassionate, creative framework to support your unique needs. Whether you’re looking to enhance focus, develop coping strategies, heal related wounds, or explore how neurodivergence affects aspects of your life like sexuality, I work alongside you to develop a personalized, sustainable approach. My flexibility and experience in this area can help you feel empowered to thrive.
