About Us
psychobiological psychotherapy
SOMATIC4HEALING
I adopt a holistic approach that considers individuals as multilayered and complex creatures in which the biological, psychological, social, and spiritual sides are taken into account with an emphases on the psychobiological (mind-body) factors in treating trauma, chronic mental illness, and relieving chronic stress. This approach facilitates the completion of self-protective responses and the release of thwarted survival energy bound in the body, thus addressing the root cause of trauma symptoms. This is approached by gently guiding clients to develop increasing tolerance for difficult bodily sensations and suppressed emotions. It resets your nervous system enhances your tolerance and resilience to stress.

Testimonials from former clients:
" Nadia is a phenomenal counselor who has walked along my journey with me for a year. She has travelled with me along various emotions such as grief, loss, anger, sadness, anxiety, and handled these emotions with much care. Nadia has helped me become more self-aware and create positive changes with her use of in-depth questions, theoretical information and therapeutic tools that I can use in life. She has provided a safe space for me to feel, understand, process and then release my emotions rather than suppressing them. Through Nadia's ability to be nonjudgmental, actively listen and sit with the various emotions that arose, I was able to form a greater understanding of my situation so that I could make healthy changes. With Nadia I learned how to set boundaries, to de-escalate feelings such as heavy anxiousness, and to make positive changes to my negative thinking patterns. Nadia allowed for me to grow as she provided an empathic, safe, nonjudgmental environment along with active listening skills, in-depth questions and psychoeducation to promote self-awareness. She has been an important role in helping me heal my trauma and build healthy relationships." A.K.
" I am extremely grateful to Nadia for her gentle, intuitive guidance and for creating a safe and loving container for my healing journey" F.E.
