Trauma Counselling
Trauma isn't just about what happened—it's about what lives on in your body, your thoughts, and your relationships. You may feel stuck in patterns that don’t make sense on the surface, but that have roots in experiences where you didn’t feel safe, seen, or in control. At Navigate Wellness, trauma counselling offers a calm, supportive space to explore those layers without having to retell every detail. Using a blend of talk therapy, EMDR, and nervous system regulation, we’ll help you begin to shift out of survival mode and into a greater sense of safety, connection, and choice in your life.
How I Work with Trauma
EMDR
Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) therapy is a powerful method for addressing deeply rooted traumatic experiences. By processing and integrating these experiences through bilateral stimulation (such as eye movements), EMDR helps to alleviate the emotional burden of complex trauma, reduce symptoms, and support the development of a healthier, more grounded self.
IFS
Internal Family Systems (IFS) therapy is an approach that helps you explore and heal the various internal parts affected by prolonged and deep-seated trauma. By fostering understanding and compassion for these parts—such as those carrying emotional wounds or protective roles—IFS supports the integration and healing of conflicted aspects of your psyche, leading to greater emotional balance and resilience.
Neurofeedback
Neurofeedback is a cutting-edge therapy that helps retrain brainwave patterns to improve emotional regulation. By targeting and optimizing brain activity, neurofeedback assists in reducing symptoms of trauma, enhancing mental stability, and supporting overall well-being, allowing you to heal from deeply ingrained traumatic experiences.
