Healing the Original Wound

Registered Social Worker
Reg no: 10-20647

With over 26 years of clinical experience, I specialise in helping people break free from the invisible patterns shaped by trauma and early attachment wounds.

My work integrates marriage counselling, trauma debriefing, and deep emotional healing to address the root causes of relational pain. I don’t just work with symptoms—I help you identify and heal the original wound, so you can experience real connection, lasting change, and a restored sense of self.
