Counselling With Bethany

Transforming trauma through body-centred healing

Book a Free Consultation

Bethany Bowman, RCC, CCC

Hello! My name is Bethany, and I am a trauma therapist.

I work primarily with adults who have suffered trauma of all kinds. This includes single incidents (car accidents, workplace incidents, assault) as well as complex and childhood traumas, and attachment injuries.

I deeply love the work I do - the work you are choosing to show up for. It takes bravery to face what happened to you. To recognize how you survived. To have the courage to hold and grieve what didn’t happen, what was missing that you needed and didn’t get at the time.

Trauma therapy is about undoing unbearable aloneness. I am here to bear witness to your suffering. I am here to help you hold, process, and integrate what needs to be integrated. To learn the skills you need to learn to get through this. I am here to hold the hope when it feels hard to hold.

The good news is, healing from trauma is possible. Yes, even yours. It takes commitment and hard work, but it is possible. And it’s worth it.
