Seeking counselling could be a life changing experience and could be scary as well. Esther came from a culture that did not necessary see counselling as needed and so going through her own journey of finding a counsellor felt scary, overwhelming, and at times discouraging. Over the years of Esther's career, she has met people with similar fears and have had some ask the following question, " how do I find the right therapist that understands me, sees me, and could connect with me in creating a healing space that feels right for me". This is where Esther comes in with her experience to support you in finding what feels right.

Hi, I am Andressa Taverna. Being a trauma survivor has moulded me and impacted my life in many obvious and also many mysterious ways. Numbing out and dissociating has helped me bear the trauma, but burying it deep and pretending it didn’t exist never really worked. It was only when I started looking at it and inviting my demons to come forward, to speak up, to scream out their rage, that what I saw behind it was pain. Eventually, I saw that they were not demons after all, but my inner child.

I am an Integrative Somatic Therapy Practice (ISTP) therapist. Trauma can present in the body in a variety of ways; witnessing a violent or horrific event(s), car accidents, surgeries, a serious sports injury(ies), being a soldier or civilian in war, being a first responder, being trafficked, as well as survivors of physical, emotional and sexual abuse. This therapy addresses trauma that shows up in the body, causing ailments that appear to have no medical rationale.

I've worked with a wide range of clients, from youth to adults, and am comfortable with people from all walks of life. Men in particular seem to be attracted to me, and we can certainly delve into men's issues. I'm comfortable in the realm of relationships, attachment theory, and childhood trauma. I'm familiar with codependency, addiction, and the recovery process. I'm quite well-versed in nervous system education, and can support emotional regulation, stress reduction, updating negative thought patterns, overcoming creative blocks, and striking a more harmonious work-life balance. If you relate to any of these, let's talk!
