Therapists in Kelowna, BC
Are you ready to heal? Physical pain, anxiety and depression associated with trauma/overwhelming experiences can be compounded by frustration and hopelessness when telling our story doesn't bring relief. After trauma, we can remain seemingly stable for many years until the body's management strategies begin to falter, as the nervous system reaches it's capacity to cope. Trauma has often been misunderstood by doctors and therapists alike, overlooked or dismissed as a key factor in our overall health. Somatic Experiencing (SE) is a highly specialized therapy that effectively treats trauma, supporting healing where the rupture has occurred - in the nervous system.

What if you could improve the quality of your life and your relationships by changing the way you think, feel and behave? I work with adults who struggle with anxiety, self esteem, stress, and anger issues, to do just that. I help individuals become aware of the thought patterns that keep them stuck and prevent them from living their life to the fullest. I show people how their thoughts, emotions and behaviours are linked and provide the necessary skills to change negative habits that have become normal over time.

While I have experience working with individuals experiencing a wide range of mild to severe mental health concerns, I have a particular interest, and skill base, supporting individuals who have experienced trauma, both single incident traumas and childhood or complex trauma. Because many mental health concerns are rooted in trauma I support individuals experiencing PTSD, CPTSD, depression, anxiety, difficulty managing emotions, feeling numb, feelings of worthlessness, guilt or shame, struggling with a harsh inner critic, and/or difficulty in relationships.
