Marlo Drago Therapy
### Marlo Drago, MSW, RSWI’m a Registered Social Worker and EMDR-trained therapist providing trauma-focused therapy to women across Ontario, with in-person therapy available in Etobicoke.I work with women who may look like they’re holding everything together on the outside, but feel overwhelmed, disconnected, anxious, stuck, or exhausted underneath it all. Many of my clients are navigating the lasting effects of childhood trauma, emotional neglect, difficult family relationships, people-pleasing, perfectionism, burnout, anxiety, relationship patterns, chronic stress, or chronic pain.My approach is warm, collaborative, practical, and trauma-informed. I draw from EMDR, parts and inner-child work, somatic and polyvagal-informed approaches, ACT, and DBT. Rather than focusing only on what is happening now, we explore what is underneath the pattern and why your nervous system, thoughts, emotions, and behaviours may be responding the way they do.EMDR can be particularly helpful when you understand your patterns intellectually but still feel stuck in them. You don’t necessarily need a clear or complete memory of what happened for therapy to be meaningful. Together, we work at a pace that feels manageable, building safety and resources before moving into deeper trauma processing.I have more than 14 years of experience in social work and hold a Master of Social Work from the University of Toronto. I have worked extensively with complex trauma and am passionate about helping women develop a greater sense of safety, self-trust, choice, and compassion for themselves.Therapy doesn’t have to feel cold, clinical, or intimidating. You don’t need to have the perfect words or know exactly where to start. We can start with what’s happening right now and work from there.
