ABOUT
Healing begins in a space where you feel safe, seen, and supported. At Hemlock & Haven Therapy, we offer a compassionate, inclusive space supporting first responders and adults navigating trauma, PTSD & operational stress. A grounded, confidential space to process what you’ve experienced and feel more steady in your day-to-day life.

Rooted in Nature, Inspired by Resilience
The name Hemlock & Haven is inspired by the Eastern Hemlock, a tree known for its quiet strength and ability to thrive in rocky terrain. Beneath its canopy, the forest feels rooted — shaded, calm, and quietly held — much like the environment we aim to foster in our practice. A haven offers rest and refuge — a steady place where healing unfolds gently, in its own time.
Who We Support
We support first responders and adults navigating a
wide range of experiences, including: trauma, PTSD,
occupational stress, moral injury, and grief and shame.
Our work offers practical support and is rooted in empathy,
curiosity, and respect for each person's unique story.
Evidence-Based, Human-Centred Care
We draw on evidence-based practices including:
-
person-centred therapy,

Cognitive Processing Therapy (CPT)

All of this is offered through the lens of a warm, authentic human connection with the purpose of reducing intensity of trauma responses and promoting a sense of balance in your every day life.
At Hemlock & Haven Therapy, we believe that healing begins when you feel truly seen and supported. Wherever you are on your journey, we’re here to walk alongside you — with care, presence, and purpose.
