About.

Nurses, Health care workers, First responders.

Whether you are a novice nurse or have been working in the field for a long time, we know these careers are high stress and can impact our mental wellness.

Struggling in your career can feel isolating and it can feel scary to reach out for support. Our vision is to help nurses and first responders thrive in their careers and also in life through collaboration, enhancing connections, uncovering meaning and providing encouragement with a provider who’s been there. With additional training in EMDR trauma therapy, we are here for you and can support you in your recovery and processing workplace trauma.

Infertility, Pregnancy and Infant loss, TFMR, Birth Trauma, Post-partum transitions

We offer a safe, non-judgemental space for client’s to explore, process and grieve the significant challenges we can face throughout our unique journeys.

With additional training in trauma therapy, we will support you through your recovery with constant communication to find a pace and treatment plan that fits your needs.
