Individual

We all have a vast arrange of human emotions that can feel messy, unmanageable and overwhelming at different times in our lives.

Sometimes you know your feelings are caused by a particular circumstance, such as a grief, trauma, childhood issues, negative/toxic relationships, or illness. But other times, it might be harder to pinpoint what the issue is, you just know, for some reason that you going through a difficult time, feeling overwhelmed, confused and/or unhappy and are struggling to manage in life, in different situations, or trying to cope with difficult thoughts and feelings on your own.

Counselling with Julie provides a confidential safe space to explore your concerns, feelings, emotions and struggles.

Relationships/Marriage

You may have reached a point where you feel you’ve tried everything to improve your relationship/marriage but nothing seems to work.  It can be very difficult to be objective about the problems and the ways in which you might both be contributing, particularly when arguments arise.

Counselling will help both of you identify the issues, provide insight on how to solve them, as well as how to prevent any problems in the future.

If you are upset or worried about the way your relationship/marriage is functioning, Counselling with Julie may be for you.

Eye Movement Therapy

Eye Movement Therapy (EMT) helps people recover from trauma and other distressing life experiences.

The mind and emotions will heal from psychological trauma as much as the body heals from physical trauma.  When you cut your hand, your body works to close the wound, however, if a foreign object or repeated injury irritates the wound, it festers and causes pain – it is blocked from being able to heal completely.  EMT removes the mental and emotional blocks and/or irritation so that complete healing takes place.

Stress responses are part of our natural fight, flight, or freeze instincts. When distress from a disturbing experience/event remains, the upsetting images, thoughts, and emotions may create an overwhelming feeling of being back in that moment, or of being “frozen in time.” EMT therapy helps the brain process these memories and allows normal healing to take place and the fight, flight, or freeze response from the original event is resolved.

One of the many benefits of EMT is that talking in detail about an issue is not required for it to be resolved, this allows for effective resolution for issues that are far too difficult to talk about.
