Hello and welcome! I’m Erin Alexander, a Registered Psychiatric Nurse and Yoga Teacher. I worked in the addictions field for over 20 years before opening my private practice. My training as a psychiatric nurse combined with my years of experience as a counsellor who specialized in addictions have led me to focus on helping clients who are struggling with nervous system dysregulation. This is often caused by incomplete stress responses and/or trauma and can manifest itself in a number of symptoms that make accessing a calm state difficult.
I approach counselling from a holistic perspective which enables the exploration of different modalities. I have a firm belief that we all have the answers within us and are wired to make change. It takes incredible courage to ask for support but we are all worth it.
It has been a great privilege to bear witness to peoples stories. As an old colleague of mine used to say “we are all more alike than we are different”.
