Trauma-Based Therapy for Children, Teens and Adults Who Are Struggling with Mental Health Challenges

Become the Hero of Your

Mental Health Journey

Many adults try therapy, only to feel that it isn’t a fit or doesn’t work for them. While parents may search high and wide for support for their child, and feel like the treatment barely scrapes the surface. When it comes to therapy – like every mental health challenge – the solution should be as unique as the individual. Using trauma-based therapy and other proven methods, I help you or your loved one build mental strength to break through stress, anxiety, depression, and life’s many challenges.

You can be the hero in your healing journey. I’m here to empower you or your child, through individual therapy, workshops and events, and training and education.

We Will Look at the Story of You,

Not Just the Symptoms

When current day events trigger unprocessed or traumatic memories, our brain and body reacts – it wants to flee, freeze, fight, or submit. What would happen if you, or your child, had a new relationship to these events? Together, we will work to understand the impact of what happened, rather than what is wrong or broken. Then we will reprocess memories that currently manifest through mental health symptoms, chronic illness, and injury. In this way, difficult emotions, thoughts, behaviours, and body sensations become reframed. Old wounds heal and relationships improve. Symptoms disappear and triggers lose their power. New, empowering coping strategies will replace the old, unhealthy or risky ones.

The result is a not only mental health … but mental strength.

Inspiration for Your Journey …

"During the therapeutic process, I look at the whole person through a mind-body lens to create lasting, transformational change."

Jillian Hosey, Registered Social Worker

"Every child needs at least one adult who is irrationally crazy about him or her."

Urie Bronfenbrenner

"Anything that’s human is mentionable, and anything that is mentionable can be more manageable. When we can talk about our feelings, they become less overwhelming, less upsetting, and less scary. The people we trust with that important talk can help us know that we are not alone."

Fred Rogers
