Maddalena Genovese, Registered Psychologist

About me...

I am a Registered Psychologist with 10 years of counselling experience and advanced professional training in the areas of trauma and PTSD. In my work, I follow principles of Cognitive Behavioural Therapy and I use evidence-based treatments like Prolonged Exposure (PE), Cognitive Processing Therapy (CPT), Eye Movement Desensitization Reprocessing Therapy (EMDR) and hypnosis to reduce distressing symptoms and improve daily functioning. Over the years I have also assisted people in the treatment of depression, anxiety, fears and phobias, vicarious trauma, stress management and burnout, relationship issues, and dissociative disorders. I particularly pride myself in recognizing the importance of developing a collaborative and respectful therapeutic relationship and in being sensitive to the particular concerns of sexual and gender minority individuals as well as those impacted by recent and childhood sexual abuse, war and military life. My clients consistently describe me as warm, genuine, light hearted, and humorous and I am honored to be part of their process towards positive change.
