He changed his own life through therapy.
Now he’s here to help you change yours.

Mark brings something deeply grounded to our team. Not just strong clinical training, but lived experience. As a gay, sober man who has done his own healing work, he knows what it feels like to sit in the client chair and stay with the hard things.

He creates a space where you don’t have to perform or pretend. Where it’s okay to say what you’ve never said out loud. Just steady, compassionate support.

Mark works with adults and young adults navigating:
✅ Trauma and complex trauma
✅ Anxiety and depression
✅ Identity exploration, including LGBTQ+
✅ Self-esteem and confidence
✅ Emotional regulation
✅ Addiction and substance use
✅ Relationship difficulties

He’s trained in EMDR, parts work, DBT, and trauma-informed care, and focuses on helping you feel less stuck and more like yourself again.

We’re really glad he’s here.

Mark is now accepting new clients. You can book a complimentary consultation through the link in our bio when it feels right 🤍

Surviving sexual abuse takes immense strength, yet its impacts can linger in trust, intimacy and self‑worth. Trauma‑informed counselling provides a safe space to process what happened and build a future defined by your values, not your trauma. Contact us to talk with a therapist who understands.

You can’t think your way out of something your nervous system learned in survival.

But you can help your brain update what it once had to believe.

That’s when people say,
“It doesn’t even feel like a trigger anymore.”

If you’re ready for that kind of shift, we’re here. Book when it feels right💗

If your body feels exhausted but won’t let you sleep, you’re not doing anything wrong.

Sleep doesn’t come from trying harder.
It comes when the body feels safe enough to let go.

Sometimes that starts with one small cue.
A slower exhale.
A bit of warmth.
Less noise. Less light.

Not perfect sleep.
Just enough safety for rest to become possible.

If this feels familiar, start gently tonight.
Notice what your body responds to 💛

You can understand your trauma
and still have a body that reacts.

That’s not failure.
That’s a nervous system doing exactly what it learned to do.

Top-down insight helps you understand the story.
But safety is something the body has to experience.

If your body still feels on edge, try this instead of analyzing more:

✨ Slow your exhale longer than your inhale
✨ Add gentle pressure like a weighted blanket or hand on your chest
✨ Provide yourself warmth and coziness before bed, not brain stimulation
✨ Orient to the room and name what feels neutral or okay
✨ Let your body know where you are *now*

These aren’t fixes.
They’re signals of safety.

And over time, those signals are what allow deeper work like EMDR and somatic therapy to actually land.

If you’ve ever thought,
“I understand this… so why hasn’t it changed?”
this is the missing piece.

Save this for the moments your body needs the reminder.

Sometimes it’s not about hitting rock bottom.

It’s noticing that you’re functioning…
but still carrying something heavy.

You’re less interested in coping better
and more curious about what it might feel like to actually feel different.

That quiet openness matters.

And if this stirred something, you don’t have to rush it.
We’re here when it feels right 💛

Not us acting shocked.

High achievement doesn’t undo survival.

We work with many women who are capable, accomplished, and outwardly thriving, yet feel constantly on edge.

Here’s why.

Your nervous system doesn’t track success.
It tracks safety.

If your body learned early that staying alert, responsible, or hyper-capable was how you stayed safe, achievement won’t turn that alarm off. Promotions don’t equal safety. New accomplishments doesn’t equal the body knowing it is safe to rest.

This is why anxiety can linger even when life looks good.
Externally, things are stable.
Internally, the body is still bracing.

This isn’t a mindset issue.
And it’s not a personal failure.

It’s survival patterns that haven’t been updated yet and that’s exactly what trauma-informed, body-based therapy is designed to support.
