Hi, I’m Dr. Heather Forde
I’ve been helping adults find the other side of trauma since 2003. With extensive training in trauma treatment, I take a collaborative approach to therapy. I specialize in working with high-achieving women recover from complex trauma by helping their nervous systems finally recognize that the danger is over. I integrate Somatic Experiencing techniques, EMDR, clinical hypnosis and nervous system education to treat chronic anxiety and perfectionism, burnout, emotional numbness, and the lingering effects of developmental trauma. A more settled and balanced way of being is possible and I’m here to help.
