My pathway to becoming an emotional health practitioner has grown from my personal healing work into a passion to help others with their journeys. As a childhood trauma survivor, I struggled to find practitioners that really understood where I as coming from. My trauma stood in the way of my growth and healing, but I struggled to trust anyone with the private things I had protected so fiercely for so long. I believe that for many trauma survivors to feel safe, they need to know that they are working with someone who, “gets it.”

This lead me to The Gatehouse in Toronto, where I attended the Childhood Sexual Abuse Peer Support Programs, eventually becoming a facilitator. After travelling from my hometown of Georgetown into Toronto to do this work, I eventually decided to create a program closer to home. The Ironwood Project was born. Now in its seventh year, I am the Program Director and Lead Host for our Survivor Support Groups.

Through my work at Ironwood, I found my experience was helpful to others and I enjoy being able to offer my support. This sent me back to school to become an Emotional Health Practitioner. For many trauma survivors learning about our brains, how they are wired and their emotional connections, offers a freedom and path forward. Using Neural Network Therapy and my experience working with survivors for over a decade, I offer a unique perspective and provide my clients with skills and tools they can use to heal.
