Welcome – I’m Jenn, and I’m Glad You’re HereHello and welcome. I’m Jenn, an Integrated Attachment Trauma Therapist dedicated to helping individuals move through pain, reconnect with themselves, and build a life rooted in inner safety and authenticity. Reaching out for support is a courageous act, and I’m honored to walk beside you on this journey.What You Can Expect in Our Work TogetherIn our sessions, you are the expert of your experience. My role is to offer a safe, compassionate, and grounded space where healing can unfold. I view therapy as a collaborative process—together, we’ll gently explore your internal world, guided by your body’s wisdom and your system’s natural drive toward healing.As an integrated therapist, I draw primarily from:Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR)Internal Family Systems (IFS / Parts Work)Polyvagal-Informed and Attachment-Focused InterventionsWe may also use:Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) for psychoeducationDialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) and Clinical Hypnosis / Non-Sleep Deep Rest for stabilization and resourcingMindfulness and Somatic Tools to help reconnect to the present momentWhat this often looks like in practice is spending time with eyes gently closed, attuning to your inner world, listening deeply to parts of yourself that have been pushed aside, exiled, or overburdened. Healing begins when we create a safe internal environment to allow these parts to be seen, heard, and understood—with compassion, not judgment.What Does It Mean to Be an Integrated Attachment Trauma Therapist?This means I work from the understanding that trauma—especially complex or developmental trauma—often shows up in the body, in our relationships, and in how we relate to ourselves. My approach weaves together somatic, attachment-based, and parts-informed methods to support you in:Making sense of your emotional responses and survival strategiesReclaiming a sense of safety in your bodyRepairing relational patterns shaped by early attachment woundsAccessing your own internal healing intelligenceThis is not surface-level work. It’s deep, meaningful, and tailored to your unique nervous system and life story.To My Clients – A Personal MessageIf you’re reading this and feeling overwhelmed, stuck, or unsure where to begin—you’re not alone. Many of my clients come to me feeling lost in their own lives, disconnected from themselves, or burdened by experiences they haven’t had space to fully process.Know this: you don’t have to figure it all out on your own. I offer a space where you can slow down, breathe, and reconnect with the parts of yourself that need healing—not by pushing through, but by gently listening in.Whether you’re navigating trauma, grief, relational pain, or feeling dysregulated in your body and emotions, you are welcome here. I will meet you where you are—with warmth, curiosity, and respect.Training & QualificationsRegistered Social Worker (RSW), Ontario College of Social Workers and Social Service WorkersMaster of Social Work (MSW)EMDR CertifiedInternal Family Systems (IFS – in advanced training)Polyvagal Theory IntegrationSomatic ExperiencingBrainspottingCognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT)Certified Sex-Informed ProfessionalEmotion-Focused Therapy (EFT) for couples and familiesClinical Hypnosis / Non-Sleep Deep RestNature-Based and Sandtray InterventionsI am always learning—currently immersed in an intensive IFS training to continue deepening my understanding of how our inner systems heal.Let’s ConnectTherapy is a courageous and personal journey.
