Virtual, Trauma-Informed Support for Life Transitions

Trauma is not defined only by what happened, but by how the nervous system responded. Trauma-informed therapy emphasizes safety, pacing, and collaboration, recognizing that healing occurs when the body and mind are supported together.

In our work, we focus on:

• reducing emotional overwhelm and reactivity
• restoring a sense of safety and internal regulation
• processing past experiences that continue to affect the present
• strengthening resilience and self-understanding

My approach is grounded in evidence-based trauma therapy and integrates EMDR, somatic awareness, and mindfulness-based practices, tailored to each client’s needs.

Major life transitions — such as career changes, health challenges, relationship shifts, immigration, or mid-life reassessment — can bring uncertainty, grief, and existential questioning. These periods often invite deeper reflection about identity, values and meaning.

For clients who wish spiritual or existential themes can be explored in a grounded, respectful, and clinically appropriate way, always guided by the client’s values and beliefs.

Life transitions may also include medical diagnoses, chronic pain, or changes in physical health. These experiences can affect identity, relationships, and emotional well-being. Therapy provides space to process these shifts and support adjustment.

I also provide gender-affirming and LGBTQ2S+ inclusive therapy for individuals, couples, and families seeking support around identity, relationships, and belonging.

I am a Registered Psychotherapist (Qualifying) with the College of Registered Psychotherapists of Ontario (CRPO) and a Certified Canadian Counsellor (CCC), providing secure virtual psychotherapy to adults across Canada. Online sessions allow for continuity, privacy, and accessibility, regardless of location.

A complimentary consultation is available to help you decide whether trauma-informed or EMDR therapy aligns with your needs.
