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!

Clients that arrive with multiple presentations or have experience traumatic events tend to struggle with on-going states of anxiety and depression, relationship issues, become labelled as bipolar and experience borderline personality disorder. My purpose is to help clients to connect with their bodies, mind and brain to achieve better understanding of them-selves and build clarity, self-regulation and resilience.

Registered Psychotherapist, M.A., R.P.
Psychodynamic psychotherapy is a clinically proven method for addressing a range of mental health concerns. For the past 3 years I have worked with clients presenting with a variety of personality disorders, life challenges/transitions, as well as relationship dynamics. Through a reparative therapeutic alliance we can work to understand the challenges you may be facing in your life. By exploring your past , we can connect what patterns and beliefs that may be hindering you today in order to improve your relationships with others and yourself. I am also under the supervision of a Feminist Supervisor and am expanding my modalities to include feminist therapy which really works to help understand the oppressive structures of patriarchy on both men and women and how they play out in our lives but with a particular focus on women's social justice and women's issues.
