Heal(ing) Trauma Therapy
Counsellor/Therapist, Registered Psychotherapist (Qualifying)
From a trauma-informed perspective ADHD is understood as 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. ADHD is not a maladaptive brain, it is a response to trauma 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 ADHD, and resolve the root of what is driving the executive dysfunction in the first place.

Forouz Salari
Registered Social Worker, MA, MSW, RSW
It's not easy living with ADHD in systems, institutions and communities that were historically built by and for neuro-typical people. Living with neurodivergence means that others struggle to understand, empathize with, and extend grace and compassion towards you. They either do not know about, do not think about, cannot imagine, or refuse to offer you the types of accommodations that would support you to show up, engage and contribute to the best of your abilities. This can make you feel further misunderstood, isolated and marginalized, and reduce your access to resources and opportunities for care and growth.
Let's work together to:
Explore, better understand & accept your unique strengths & challenges as someone living with ADHD.
Learn & apply new techniques & approaches to address some of the executive functioning challenges that come with ADHD (including planning, organization, and time-management).
Learn effective ways of managing your stress to reduce the intensity of the symptoms of ADHD.
Create doable personalized plans to feel more balanced, well, fulfilled and engaged in your work / studies, relationships, and personal life.
Learn about and self-advocate for academic & workplace accommodations that can reduce your experiences of overwhelm & stress, and set you up for success.

I tend to click well with people whose brains also "diverge", like my own. I've spent much of my career getting curious about ADHD and how to navigate this world feeling truer to ourselves. Would love to meet for a consultation to get to know one another!
