About Fema

I believe that our emotional experiences and physical well-being are deeply connected. Trauma, prolonged stress, and chronic pain can influence how we feel, relate to others, and experience our bodies. My goal is to help you understand these connections while creating space for healing, resilience, and meaningful change.

I specialize in trauma therapy and chronic pain therapy, supporting individuals navigating PTSD, complex trauma, childhood trauma, anxiety, emotional dysregulation, and persistent physical symptoms. I understand how overwhelming it can feel when painful experiences or ongoing physical symptoms begin to affect your relationships, confidence, and everyday life.

My approach recognizes the important role of the brain and nervous system in both trauma and chronic pain. Chronic pain is real, and its causes are often complex. Together, we can explore how stress, emotions, and nervous system responses may influence your experiences, while developing strategies to reduce distress, build emotional resilience, and restore confidence in your body.

I integrate evidence-informed approaches, including EMDR, clinical hypnosis, Internal Family Systems (IFS), parts work, inner child work, somatic therapy, Accelerated Resolution Therapy (ART), Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), and Dialectical Behaviour Therapy (DBT). I tailor these approaches to your individual needs, using hypnosis and other therapeutic techniques to support relaxation, emotional regulation, pain management, and the processing of difficult experiences.

Above all, I believe that healing begins when you feel genuinely heard, understood, and supported. I offer a warm, compassionate, and nonjudgmental space where we can move at your pace. Whether you’re navigating trauma, chronic pain, or both, my hope is to help you reconnect with yourself, rediscover your strengths, and move toward a life that feels more fulfilling and meaningful.
