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!

Our minds are a complex mix of past experiences and present perceptions. It can be confusing to sort out what is real and relevant to your current situation. Through therapy we engage in a mutual journey of discovery to find out what makes you tick. Self understanding gives you choices. You no longer operate on automatic pilot. Couple and Family Therapy operate in a similar way, except the work is to help family members listen and understand each other, to support and encourage each other. Families fall into hurtful habits of discord. That can be changed with effort and help.
