I thought this clip from the Olympics was so funny and reminded me of our role as therapists during Phase 4 of EMDR - we provide guard rails, and need to focus on safety, attunement, and the belief that our client can heal. Interweaves can be powerful however we want to have a clinical rationale for using them, as we don’t want to interfere with the client’s processing.

Do you have a client that’s stuck or looping? I can help you assess what’s going on. Connect with me if you’re interested in EMDR Consultation or certification!

Nurses and first responders often experience trauma, yet don’t come right out and say it explicitly.

Being a mental health professional is such a privilege 💜 you get to walk with folks through their darkest times and offer a glimmer of hope. So many people I’ve spoken with over the years that have offered me such a unique perspective on life. Thank you for your trust.

Today we are proud to announce the launch of the Spousal Resiliency Program - Online (SRP-Online). This new self-paced resiliency program has been clinically developed to help spouses and partners of Veterans, First Responders and other Trauma Exposed Professionals understand and regulate their emotions within relationships impacted by operational stress injuries.

SRP-Online has been adapted from our in-person model and was clinically developed by Claudine Barrette, M.Ps, C.Psych., Carolynn Turner, MA, RCC-ACS in collaboration with lived-experience peer Kathryn Linford.

The development of the program was made possible thanks to a new three-year funding partnership with BMO, whose contribution funded the development of SRP-Online.

The program can be accessed at no cost to spouses and partners of Trauma Exposed Professionals by visiting the following link: https://education.warriorhealth.ca/courses/srp-1

If retirement feels a bit mixed, know that you’re not alone.

For intense and passionate careers like nursing or policing, it can feel both like a relief to be done and at the same time, directionless & empty.

This experience makes sense - you got into this career to help people and serving has been a big part of not just your life but your family’s too.

We help clients navigate this transition holistically so they can feel fulfilled outside of the profession. Let’s help you find another way to serve that supports your mental health & wellbeing 💙

Visit www.followingseas.ca to book a free consultation with one of our culturally sensitive therapists 🚑 We offer sessions virtually as well as in person at our Cole Harbour office.
