Inward & Upward Therapy by Trisha the TherapistStart a conversation

Clinical service · Ontario

Psychotherapy shaped around the realities of first responder life.

The skills that help you stay alert, steady, and ready on duty can be hard to set down at home. Individual psychotherapy offers a confidential place to understand how work is affecting you and build practical ways forward, without reducing you to a diagnosis.

What we can work on

  • Occupational stress and trauma
  • Hypervigilance, irritability, withdrawal, or emotional shutdown
  • Emotional capacity and regulation skills
  • Communication, trust, and relationship strain
  • The impact of work on everyday life and family connection

A culturally informed approach

My work is trauma-informed and respects the context of emergency response. We can make sense of patterns while keeping responsibility for how we treat ourselves and the people around us.

I’m a Registered Psychotherapist in Ontario, registration #13624. Individual psychotherapy is a clinical service and is distinct from educational programs and workshops.
