Sydney Rose(She/they)

Sydney entered the world of mental health as over a decade ago, she was passionate about the idea that people receiving mental health services should be empowered in their experiences with the health care system. Since then, she's worked with people in almost every kind of environment, from teaching mindfulness in homeless shelters to consulting on mindful leadership at corporatations and large non profits.

Sydney’s therapy style is relaxed, responsive, curious, affirming, collaborative and enthusiastically imperfect. She loves working to make the research and tools that are available to her as a clinician (and as a yoga and meditation teacher) accessible to her clients in practical ways.

Her clients have many different kinds of diagnosis’s (or none at all). They’re seeking a trustworthy confidant in their pursuit of post traumatic growth. Someone who can listen deeply enough to understand their fears, dreams, goals, strengths and experiences… and help them get out of survival mode and back into connected, authentic, meaningful lives.

Her clients often reach out for EMDR when they feel stuck in other forms of therapy and want a new approach. They rely on her when they feel burnt out, ashamed, exhausted, disconneted from themselves, overwhelmed by emotion, sleep walking through life or underwater from the stress they're managing. They say that in times of upheaval, confusion and turmoil, it feels good to have someone who just “gets it.” Someone who can help them see themselves more clearly, and who’s compassionate, while also being direct.
