About Heartful Conversations Coeur²
Heartful Conversations Coeur² was born from a long time desire of creating and
offering a space where people can come however they are
and wherever they are in their healing journey.
From stepping into vulnerability for the first time to being fully ready to embrace their full selves,
Heartful Conversations Coeur² aims at offering a space where people
can feel heard, listened to, supported, guided and most of all celebrated.
Healing life’s hurt takes time, courage, patience, care and love.
I aim at offering these elements and a space
where personal growth can blossom.
Hello!
My name is Stephanie. I am the creator of Heartful Conversations Coeur². Born and raised in a little village in Northern Ontario, I have a deeply rooted connection and love for the Land and all that help ground my two feet to the Earth. I am passionate about physical movement, my family, my heritage and culture, social advocacy, true equality and wandering through the beautiful World we live in! I am a Registered Social Worker, Psychotherapist with the Ontario College of Social Workers and Social Service Workers (OCSWSSW). I have a Masters degree in Social Work from the University of Ottawa. I also have a College diploma in Leisure Studies which inspires my creativity in the modalities I choose to guide people I have the chance to work with. I have been working as a Social Worker since 2013 and I have developed an expertise working with adolescents and adults.
In the last few years, I’ve had the incredible opportunity to study Trauma and Attachment Therapy from experts in the field. They have given me tremendous knowledge and since then, I became a Certified Trauma Integration Clinician through the Attachment and Trauma Treatment Centre for Healing..
My wish is to offer you a safe space to work through traumatic experiences and the symptoms and mental health issues resulting from these experiences that have left you scared to walk in this world. You have the right to an healed outcome.
I am here to help you choose and acknowledge your true self.
To promote healing of the heart,
I use an integrative approach combining emotional-freedom therapy, mindfulness, breathwork and visualization, art, play and somatic experiencing. These modalities are combined with ”talk therapy‟ to help you navigate your experiences, your emotions, thoughts and behaviors.
My values
Who is it for?
Everyone from 14 years old and up who has
experienced or is experiencing:
Why Trauma and attachment focused therapy?
Attachment 101
“Our early life experiences create the blueprint for how we think, how we feel, and for how we relate to other people. When this blueprint consists of negative experiences during this foundational time, the impact is more far-reaching than most understand.” (Lori Gill, 2015)
Studies have shown that secure attachment facilitates the development of the brain's self-regulatory mechanisms. Attachment starts developing at the very beginning of our lives and its quality will impact our capability of regulating ourselves during all our life. Through healthy attachment, we feel safe to explore the world as we know a loving figure will take care of us. Regulation can be learnt through various attuned interactions,
loving care, nurturing presence and attention.
It is an essential skill to all humans since it allows us to respond to experiences and demands from our environment with emotions that are appropriate to the situation.
Traumatic experiences often cause a massive disruption in the the way the brain is able to regulate. Even after the danger has passed, the brain of the person living with trauma will constantly scan it's environment for possible danger. That is why we often say that the earlier traumatic intervention is done, the better.
But fear not, there is hope.
Healing our hurts takes time. I believe it is your time now!
So who is the therapy for?
How can it contribute positively to your life?
Can this approach be beneficial even without traumatic experiences? ABSOLUTELY!
Welcomed and celebrated!
