Trauma Resolution Specialist
Resolution is a uniquely hopeful and healing pathway to recovery.
Who I am
I provide evidence-based health and wellness support services – hazard and risk management, mediation and conciliation, trauma processing, and system navigation.
I create a deeply private and transformative experience for you and your trusted supports – grow capacity, competence, cohesion.
I advocate for safe supply psychedelic medicines and their use in healing complex trauma. Regain access to a more fluid and authentic self.
With my family, I raise and train medical service dogs for PTSD. Alert, interrupt, intercept, compress. Attach, regulate and repeat.

Highlights – CCTP course 2016/17
06.04.2023I take notes in class.

There is a finite number of events you are still carrying/were unable to discharge at the time/never got help for. The closer we can get to root cause events, the more impact a small change can have on the quality of your life and relationships. I plan on taking you as deep as you can go as fast as we can and keeping you ‘there’ in a productive dynamic state. Like an urgent search and rescue, we are going back to find and recover you.

What people have to say
“What I look to in Ella is her practical yet compassionate approach, she carries ideals and a vision of how people can recover to live more peaceful, caring lives. She knows and appreciates diversity and can be at home almost anywhere”
“I can think of several instances where Ella was able to turn a negative experience into a positive one. She has the gift of seeking out the truth about someone’s feelings, bringing clarity and hope to them. Her intelligence and wit combined with her education and experience can turn both a person and a situation around to a good way of thinking and living”
“Ella has the ability to explain things in a gentle way, avoiding negative reactions, creating a safe and healing atmosphere so people can learn and adjust to life’s issues. Two avenues aid in this - her education/training/skills, and her own self-examination”
“With her help, I have overcome some barriers to reintegration - very few people have the gift to connect with a wounded spirit and be of assistance. Ella has demonstrated the ability to support me while keeping her own balance”
“Ella reflects exceptional gifts at integrating present learning with past insights, and with projections about future impact. Her integrity and reliability range in the exceptional category”
“It appears to me that her intellectual gifts have been overlooked and misunderstood yet I expect her to make a major contribution to our world, namely by helping marginalized people and groups to be better understood by the rest of us. She is especially adept at understanding cultural phenomena which lie at the fringes of ‘normality’”
“This will come as no surprise to you Ella, very sensitive, highly intuitive, you convey a message of gentle care and grasp complex relationship dynamics very quickly and accurately. Quite open to all expression of meaning, you are a seeker and searcher”
“Ella is one of those persons who can be very centered in her own beliefs while at the same time being able to stay centered and genuinely respectful of others' values and needs. Others find her easy to work with and trust her leadership in learning to value one another in daily interactions”
“Incredibly skilled at taking charge when everyone else is flailing, her confidence and experience with mental health disorders, treatment and services make her a passionate advocate and inclusive specialist. She believes that healing is possible”
I look forward to hearing from you.
