Nervous System Regulation & Trauma-Informed Psychotherapy

Addressing Trauma at the Source

“High-functioning” on the outside. Overwhelmed on the inside.

You’ve done the reading, done the work, and kept pushing through, yet deep down, something still feels unresolved.
At Back to Self Psychotherapy, we understand what chronic dysregulation and relational trauma actually look like. You keep showing up, performing, fixing, and managing life, but your body remains stuck in high alert or quiet exhaustion.

It is easy to assume you’re doing something wrong or that you are somehow "broken." The reality is simple: insight alone isn't always enough to heal. Traditional therapy approaches just haven't reached where the pain is held.

Feeling stuck doesn't mean you are beyond help; it means your nervous system requires a deeper approach. We go gradually and safely to the root causes of trauma, helping you move past your coping skills to help you clear:
Pain you can explain intellectually, but still feel in your chest or stomach
Intrusive memories or past experiences you rarely speak out loud
Persistent anxiety, chronic tension, or somatic symptoms that show up unannounced
Deeply ingrained core beliefs that whisper “I’m not safe,” “I’m too much,” or “I’m not good enough”

When you are ready to stop managing symptoms and start regulating at the source, we are here to walk with you.

You Don’t Have to Navigate This Alone

Hi, I’m Sofia Hidershaj. I am a Registered Psychotherapist (Qualifying) in Ontario, Canada.

Welcome to Back to Self Psychotherapy. My practice is built on a trauma-informed and somatic foundation designed to foster genuine, deep-seated healing.
Through evidence-based approaches like EMDR and IFS, I work collaboratively with you to gently process trauma, build internal safety, and restore balance.
You deserve a therapeutic space that is safe, non-judgmental, and tailored specifically to your pacing.
