Trauma-Informed Somatic Therapy
for adults seeking support for stress and trauma-related experiences including addiction and mental health disorders
(in-person in Calgary, virtually across Alberta)
Trauma-Informed Somatic Therapy
A mind-body approach to release stress & support your nervous system
We all carry a unique narrative that has moulded our inner world and influenced how we navigate and interact with the outer world. It's a personal story that shapes who we are. Often, trauma and pain are also part of that story. These events can profoundly imprint our brain, body, and nervous system, inevitably leading us to find our own strategies to manage the pain, suffering, and accompanying symptoms, which can manifest as mental health challenges or even addiction.
We are all human, and sometimes, we need support.
I'm a holistic somatic therapist who weaves my lived experience into a holistic, humanistic, and individualized approach to relating and empathizing. A session with me is a corner of the world where I will be honest, compassionate and non-judgemental in supporting you to get back on track. I would be honoured to walk alongside you on your personalized healing journey. My intention is to offer a space that welcomes the messiness of being a human as you navigate your path toward recovery and renewal.
Does your story include any of the following:
Chronic stress
Relationship issues
Difficulty breaking free from addictive behaviours
Struggling through life following a distressing and/or traumatic event
Anxious or depressed and feeling stuck
Sleep issues
General overwhelm with life
Feeling exhausted
Experiencing burnout
Difficult managing life stressors
Chronic pain
And more. . .

Founder of
Wild Journey Recovery
Hi, my name is Theresa, and I am the founder of Wild Journey Recovery. Thank you for being here; I want to acknowledge the courage it takes to search for support, especially if your world feels dark. I have been there myself.
And I came out on the other side.
I am human first.
A Mental Health Therapist second.
My professional philosophy is grounded in the idea that I am not an expert in your life and instead can assist you in reconnecting with a vital part of you that you may have lost touch with.
I strive to support those who have endured any form of trauma which has led to mental health disorders and addiction.
Areas of Specialty
My area of focus is working with adults who are seeking support from addiction, both in active addiction or recovery, concurrent mental health disorders, burnout, and adults seeking relief from stress and trauma symptoms. I offer one-to-one private therapy sessions. At this time I do not work with children or adolescents.
