In our post-COVID world, addictions and traumas have become increasingly prevalent. During COVID, traumas and past fears seem to have been activated and often the result is an addiction–sometimes to a substance like alcohol or drugs, or sometimes to a behaviour like gambling or working too hard. It seems like life has become more difficult, however by changing some habits, life can improve.

I am the owner of Equinox Therapeutic. I most enjoy providing services to individuals who feel, in some way, "stuck" but feel that somehow, someway, life MUST have something better in store for them! Whether it's because of traumatic experiences that you still carry the weight of, or the sense that your current coping mechanisms are no longer functional for you, I can help you untangle the web of your past or present...allowing you ultimately to emerge with a true understanding of who you are, and a sense of empowerment and potential to be who you want to be. 2SLGBTQ+ affirming, and all expressions of queerness are welcome!

As an attachment focused and trauma informed therapist, I work with individuals and couples to identify how traumatic experiences, grief and loss, experiencing neglect or abuse, and other distressing experiences may be keeping you stuck in a pattern of distress. Unresolved trauma can maintain feelings of depression, anxiety, self criticism, difficulty regulating or expressing your emotions, difficulty in feeling close with others, as well as difficulty in setting boundaries. It can also contribute to PTSD, phobias, disordered eating, and a number of other mental health challenges.
