As a gestalt psychotherapist, who pairs gestalt training with somatic experiencing I can help support you in healing from your trauma. No one in the Niagara Region utilizes the combination of these therapies and applies them to working with couples in crisis. I am sorry to say but popular approaches to healing trauma like CBT will provide only temporary relief at best. If you want to get to the root of your trauma and heal somatic experiencing (SE) is what you need and when supported with the power of relational gestalt therapy you will shift your shit! SE focuses on regulating your nervous system. Gestalt focuses on awareness, contact and authenticity, it will help being relational.

The process of ‘talk therapy’ allows individuals to explore their feelings, thoughts and behaviors in a safe, non-judgmental and supportive setting. Psychotherapy offers the opportunity to process our lived experiences, change negative thought patterns or behaviors, and develop more helpful and healthy coping strategies. It is a collaborative treatment based on the relationship between an individual and therapist. Therapy can get messy and painful at times however there are rewards when we do the work including, greater freedom, peace and joy.
