Please note: Cindy is only accepting clients who are DBR Therapists looking for experiential consultation or individual DBR consultation. She also offers DBR group consultation and co-facilitates an ongoing DBR practicum group for DBR therapists with Dr. Tina Shrigley.
All sessions are virtual.
I have specialized in the treatment of trauma-related conditions, including complex trauma and dissociation, for over 35 years. Although I am an EMDRIA-approved consultant and have provided EMDR therapy for over 25 years, my practice now focuses on the use of Deep Brain Orienting (DBR) therapy with clients. I particularly have a special interest in providing DBR to other therapists for their own personal healing.
Most recently, I have contributed to a chapter on DBR and dissociation in Corrigan, Christie-Sands, and Young’s (2025) seminal book, “Deep Brain Reorienting: Understanding the Neuroscience of Trauma, Attachment Wounding, and DBR Psychotherapy”. I was also honoured to be given a “Local Distinguished Social Worker Award” by the OASW in 2025.
I also teach core training in DBR, as well as advanced DBR workshops in the areas of complex trauma and dissociation with Dr. Tina Shrigley.
If you are not a DBR Therapist and looking for therapy, our other therapist affiliates offer EMDR therapy and DBR therapy.
