Trauma & PTSD Therapy in Newmarket, Ontario (Online Across Ontario)
You understand your patterns — but still feel stuck.
This work goes deeper than insight to create real, lasting change.
If you’re feeling stuck in anxiety, overwhelmed by your emotions, or impacted by past experiences, you’re not alone — and you don’t have to keep managing it on your own.
Many of the people I work with are self-aware. They’ve done the thinking, the reflecting, and maybe even therapy before — but something still isn’t shifting.
That’s because real change doesn’t just happen at the level of insight.
I use evidence-based, trauma-informed approaches such as EMDR, Internal Family Systems (IFS), and Deep Brain Reorienting (DBR) to work at a deeper level — helping you process what’s been held in the nervous system, not just understand it.
You don’t have to stay stuck in the same patterns. Therapy can help you feel calmer, more grounded, and more in control.
Sessions are available in-person in Newmarket and online across Ontario.
Session Fee: $170 (50 minutes)
Covered by most extended health benefits.
