Heather completed a Bachelor of Social Work degree, worked for several years in child protection and then completed a Master of Social Work Degree. Heather has focused her attention on attachment, trauma, and the work that can be done when one focuses on the relationships that matter for the individual involved. She is trained in Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), an integrative psychotherapy approach that has proven effective at improving mental health including trauma. Most recently, Heather completed training in Deep Brain Reorienting (DBR), a trauma processing psychotherapy approach that processes through the shock and emotions of traumatic events by noticing and being with the sensations in the body, rather than cognitively processing the issue or memory.
