About Us

At Niram EMDR & Trauma Counselling, we believe in a holistic approach to navigating through trauma and post-trauma stress. Our team of compassionate clinicians use EMDR and other trauma treatment modalities to support people towards healing. We are committed to supporting children, teens, adults, and families from diverse communities, including the LGBTIQASBP+, neurodivergent, and BIPOC communities. We recognise that people are the experts of their lives and we journey alongside people rather than try to fix them.

At Niram, we believe in an affirming, anti-oppressive and compassionate approach to mental health. We work with people and their support team to create a treatment plan that meet their specific needs, lived/living experiences and identities.

We offer appointments before, during and after hours as well as on weekends to support people flexibly and in a way that works with life.
