About Angelique
I am a Registered Social Worker, EMDR Certified Therapist, and EMDR Consultant in Training, with over 10+ years of experience providing trauma-informed treatment to adults (18+). I work with individuals who are experiencing mental, emotional, and physical difficulties that stem from recent or past traumatic experiences.
In addition to psychotherapy, I provide clinical training, and clinical consultation to professionals and organizations.
My therapeutic approach rests on the philosophy that every person has within them an intrinsic wisdom and ability to heal. My role is to provide the conditions to support your healing through safety/connection and therapeutic approaches.
My clinical work is grounded in EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization Reprocessing) and attachment theory, both of which have proven to be highly effective in addressing trauma and promoting healing. I draw upon other evidenced-based approaches including but not limited to: Neurofeedback (Infra Slow Neurofeedback), Polyvagal Theory, Flash Approaches, Somatic Focused therapies, Ego-State therapy, and Cognitive Therapies to support with trauma resolution. These approaches have their time and place in therapy and I work with your goals and preferences to determine which approach is the best fit.
Recognizing the potential of psychedelic-assisted therapy in facilitating deep healing and personal transformation in relation to trauma, I also offer Psychedelic Preparation/Integration Therapy. Whether you are considering or have had experiences with psychedelics, I provide a supportive and integrative space for you to prepare, explore and make sense of these profound experiences.
I have a strong inclination towards providing intensive trauma treatment as opposed to traditional psychotherapy (50 minute sessions weekly/biweekly) as a result I founded Trauma Resolution Centre, a practice that specializes in providing intensive trauma treatment. Intensive trauma treatment can offer more targeted and focused support, allowing individuals to address deep-rooted traumas and facilitate faster healing. While I do offer traditional psychotherapy on occasion, I find that the intensive trauma treatment approach better aligns with my therapeutic philosophy and the outcomes individuals aim to achieve.

If you are feeling the impacts from your past or present experiences, then my areas of specialty are likely a good fit for you. In sessions with me, you can expect to gain insight into the factors that have contributed to your difficulties and develop the necessary skills to navigate your present life with greater resilience and well-being.
