Integrative Counseling Services Specializing
in EMDR Trauma Therapy, Grief Counseling
& Women’s Well-being
You’re feeling anxious, overwhelmed & constantly on-edge in your nervous system, wanting tools to feel calm, clear & in control again.
You’re carrying a heavy heart after loss, seeking a refuge to be heard, understood & supported.
You’re ready to move beyond conventional talk therapy to experience deep healing and safety in your body that restores your peace, joy and confidence.
Does this feel familiar? 
You’ve come to the right place.
It’s inevitable that we will weather storms of some kind. A diagnosis. A divorce. A miscarriage. A dream diverged.
I believe you’re not meant to struggle through the hardships alone.
I’m Christine Slomski, a Licensed Professional Counselor, EMDR Therapist, Reproductive Grief Specialist, Yoga Practitioner, and seasoned Emotional Freedom Technique Practitioner with 20 years of experience in EFT. I specialize in the mind-body connection, using somatic (body-based) approaches to heal trauma, foster resilience, and rebalance the nervous system. In my work, I regularly witness individuals reconnecting to a sense of security in within themselves. This leads to more calm, ease, joy, and confidence in their lives and relationships.
If you’ve previously experienced talk therapy yet you have the sense there’s something deeper to be explored, I invite you to work with me at Calm Hearts Counseling.

What is Integrative Counseling?
Integrative counseling looks for root causes of distress rather addressing symptoms, and views each individual as a whole person: mind, heart, body & spirit.
What does body-based, or somatic, mean?
Soma originates in Greek and Latin, translating to “body”.
Somatic refers to being of or relating to the body.
Somatic-centered or body-based approaches explore how the body stores and expresses past painful experiences, and draw upon mind-body tools to assist with trauma recovery.
The body holds the wisdom.
our offerings & areas of specialtyIt’s Time to Experience Healing & Calm in Your Nervous System with Integrative Counseling Services
Eye Movement Desensitization & Reprocessing (EMDR)
Experience freedom from the mental, emotional & physical aftermath of trauma using the power of EMDR, an integrative psychotherapy tool clearing trauma, anxiety, panic, depression, rumination, and a range of mental & emotional issues.
Emotional Freedom Technique (EFT Tapping) /
Meridian Therapy
EFT Tapping, or Meridian Therapy, is a psycho-somatic, stress-reduction tool combining psychology with acupressure points. EFT Tapping is a highly effective tool known to calm the Central Nervous System within minutes and reduce physical pain. We hold 20 years of EFT Tapping experience!
Somatic-based Therapies
Somatic therapies are gentle, body-based approaches like breath work, parts work, gentle movement, havening or tapping that help to facilitate emotional healing and resilience. Somatic therapies are based on the idea that our bodies store our stress, memories, and traumatic experiences. By tuning in to the body and its cues, we can release tension, heal trauma, and feel more grounded and whole.
Individual Therapy: Areas of Specialty
Trauma & Anxiety
The echo of trauma is often experienced as anxiety, panic, chronic overwhelm, relationship strain, perfectionism, avoidance, and embodied in physical symptoms like headaches, body pain, insomnia. We draw upon whole-person, evidence-based approaches to help individuals rebuild a sense of calm and safety within themselves and their relationships.
Grief & Loss
Find solace and comfort navigating life after loss with compassionate grief support. We specialize in helping those who have experienced death of a spouse or loved one, traumatic loss, out-of-order loss, major life transitions, perinatal losses, reproductive loss, non-traditional loss (a loss unseen) and more.
Women’s Well-being
Experience a safe haven to explore & receive support for navigating the unique influences affecting women’s psychological well-being: family of origin, relationships, parenting, career/vocation, pregnancy, motherhood, mother wounds, hormonal imbalances, transitional life stages.
Reproductive Grief & Trauma: Pregnancy Loss & Infertility
If you’re facing infertility or grieving a pregnancy loss—through miscarriage, stillbirth, abortion, or TFMR (Termination for Medical Reason)—you don’t have to walk this path alone. We provide a safe and compassionate space where you can share your story, honor your loss, and begin to heal.
