Meet Stephanie Underwood, R.S.W
Healing begins when we recognize the nature of trauma and understand its impacts.
As a trauma-informed social worker, I offer a holistic approach that considers the physical, emotional, and spiritual aspects of a person's well-being. My goal is to create a safe, compassionate, and empowering environment that enables my clients to find a new sense of hope, strength, and relief.
By working together, we can achieve long-lasting changes that lead to improved relationships, increased self-esteem, and reduced anxiety.

Counselling Approaches
01
A trauma-informed approach in counselling is about recognizing how past experiences can influence your present thoughts and emotions. It's a supportive method that acknowledges and addresses the impact of challenging times in the past on your mental and emotional well-being.
03
A biopsychosocial approach is a holistic framework that considers the interplay between biological, psychological, and social factors in understanding and addressing mental health issues.
02
An attachment-based approach explores how an individual's attachment history may influence their current patterns of relating in relationships, and aims to promote the development of healthy, secure attachments in relationships.
04
A System's approach is like looking at the big picture of your life. It's a way of understanding how your relationships and the world around you influence the way you think, feel, and act. This approach helps us explore the effects of broader factors, like culture and society, on your well-being.
