BOOK NOW

EMDR THERAPY

Short for Eye Movement Desensitisation Reprocessing.

EMDR is used to help reprocess traumatic events with the goal of reducing triggered responses flashbacks and more.

DBT INFORMED THERAPY

I provide skills to aid in mindfulness, emotional regulation, distress tolerance and interperonal effective ness through tools that are informed from DBT therapy.

PARTS WORK
THERAPY

I utilise parts work as a precursor for EMDR for those who experience dissociation. It is a way in which we get permission from the nervous system to do deeper trauma work.

CLINICAL SUPERVISION

I take an approach to supervision that meets supervisees where they are at in their learning process and readiness for growth. I utilize DBT principles and hierarchies to inform my supervisory work.

CLINICAL CONSULTATION

I provide 1 to 1 consulting services to therapists looking for additional support and guidance in areas including suicide prevention, intimate partner violence, trauma and dissociation.
