Movement with Steph
Registered Psychotherapist, MCouns&PsychTh
Trauma is more prevalent in our society than we think it is From big "T" trauma to little "t" trauma, they all leave an impact on our sense of self and how we live our lives and interact with others. I work using a variety of approaches that address trauma in one's life and provides a holding space for the pain, suffering, shame, hurt, anger, numbness, etc that trauma can elicit in a person. I work collaboratively with the client and with a compassion-focused approach to help the client gradually unpack their trauma and begin to heal.
