Netanya approaches therapy from a trauma-informed lens, meeting people exactly where they are and walking beside them wherever their journey leads. She draws on body-mind connected work and evidence-based modalities including EMDR, Internal Family Systems (IFS), and mindfulness-based therapies such as MBCT and ACT. Rather than only talking about symptoms, she invites you to feel into what’s beneath the surface—emotions, bodily sensations, patterns—and gently guides toward insight, self-compassion, and renewed connection with yourself.
Netanya works best with adults who are open to exploring their inner world with curiosity and courage. Her ideal client might be someone who feels stuck in old patterns, disconnected from themselves, or ready to understand how past experiences continue to shape their present. She’s a good fit for individuals seeking gentle, trauma-informed support as they move toward healing, self-acceptance, and balance.
Netanya’s approach is especially supportive for those who value a calm, steady presence and a safe space to slow down, reflect, and reconnect with their sense of self.
Professional & Personal Story
Netanya’s work is shaped by both her personal and professional experiences. Having walked through seasons of grief and loss, body-image challenges, and healing as a survivor of abuse, she brings authentic empathy to her work. Professionally, she has supported individuals dealing with addiction, trauma, anxiety and depression—which reinforces her belief in the resilience of the human spirit and the power of trauma-informed care.
Outside of her role as a therapist, Netanya finds joy and renewal in outdoor adventures and creative expression. She enjoys hiking, mountain biking, and surfing—from Kamloops to Tofino and beyond. She delights in quiet moments lost in a good book, exploring watercolor painting, and grounding in yoga and meditation. Life’s journey unfolds alongside her husband and their small, elderly dog, who bring laughter and warmth to everyday.
