Ways We Can Work Together

These are the different ways therapy is offered at Wandering Willow, depending on your needs, preferences, and what feels like the best fit right now.

I don’t work from a one-size-fits-all model. Therapy here begins with understanding you—your history, your experiences, and what is possible right now. Much of my work is trauma-informed, recognizing that trauma can occur in childhood or later in life and can shape how the nervous system responds to stress and relationships.

When trauma is present, the nervous system may remain in patterns of fight, flight, freeze, or fawn long after the original experience has passed. These patterns can show up as anxiety, chronic stress, emotional overwhelm, burnout, relationship difficulties, or physical symptoms such as chronic pain, illness, or fatigue.

Rather than viewing these responses as problems to be fixed, therapy focuses on understanding them as adaptations and on supporting the nervous system in achieving greater safety and flexibility.

Individual Virtual Therapy

Trauma-informed individual therapy for adults across Ontario experiencing stress, emotional overwhelm, anxiety, or feeling stuck, with care tailored to your nervous system and lived experience.

Couples Therapy

In-Person on the Farm

In-person therapy is offered in a quiet, farm-based setting close to Kingston, Ontario, where nature and animals may support nervous system regulation and a sense of safety during sessions.

EMDR Therapy

EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization Reprocessing) therapy is offered as part of trauma-informed treatment to help process distressing or overwhelming experiences without needing to relive them in detail.
