TRAUMA THERAPY & EMDR IN VANCOUVER BC
‍

EMDR Therapy

Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) is a structured, gold-standard therapy that helps the brain naturally reprocess traumatic memories, stripping away their emotional charge without you having to talk about every detail.
‍

Compassion-Focused Therapy

Trauma often brings deep-seated shame and self-blame. We work on building a fiercely compassionate inner voice to quiet your inner critic and heal relational wounds.

Somatic and nervous-system-informed therapy

A body-centered approach that honors how the nervous system stores stress. We focus on grounding, body awareness, and breathwork to safely release trapped survival energy.

Childhood Trauma Recovery

For complex or developmental trauma (C-PTSD), we use attachment-informed care to address long-standing patterns, family-of-origin dynamics, and inner-child healing.

Acceptance-based strategies

An action-oriented, mindfulness-based psychotherapy that helps individuals accept difficult emotions and thoughts rather than fighting them.

Trauma-Informed Care

Trauma-Informed Care (TIC) is an approach that recognizes how common trauma is and deeply understands its widespread impact on a person's life, brain, and nervous system.Instead of looking at coping mechanisms or symptoms and asking, "What is wrong with you?" a trauma-informed approach shifts the perspective to ask, "What happened to you?"
