Meet Tracey Nguyen, Holistic Nurse Psychotherapist

I’m Tracey Nguyen, a master’s-prepared registered nurse and holistic psychotherapist dedicated to helping you heal from narcissistic abuse, complex post-traumatic stress disorder (CPTSD), borderline personality disorder (BPD), and chronic illness. With certified training in Gestalt methodology, applied mindfulness, therapeutic touch, Reiki, and yoga, I bring a unique blend of expertise to my practice, True Health Counselling.

Heal CPTSD, Mend Narcissistic Somatic Trauma Symptoms

About True Health Counselling: As a holistic nurse psychotherapist, True Health Counselling delivers complex trauma-informed psychotherapy through The Integrative Somatic Trauma Healing Approach—a psychosomatic, mindfulness-based framework with Gestalt therapy and a faith-based lens. Specializing in CPTSD, BPD, narcissistic somatic symptoms, psychosomatic disorders, and immune dysfunction, we guide faith-oriented clients to authentic healing, safe relationships, and coming home to their souls.

A Personal Journey of Healing

My own decade-long journey through narcissistic abuse, CPTSD, and chronic illness—marked by chronic anxiety, panic attacks, and physical symptoms like leaky gut, candida overgrowth, and autoimmune issues—shaped my practice. The profound grief of losing my beloved mother to gastric cancer deepened my spiritual journey, leading to an emotional catharsis that healed intergenerational trauma. This wisdom informs my work, helping clients reclaim their voice and power. As Bessel van der Kolk notes, trauma lives in the body, and my holistic approach integrates mind, body, and soul to restore wholeness.

Expertise in Trauma and Chronic Illness Recovery

Since 2015, I’ve helped hundreds of clients heal from narcissistic abuse, BPD, codependency, and dissociation, addressing both emotional and physical symptoms. My hands-on holistic bodywork and somatic talk therapy regulate the nervous system, aligning your soul with your physical being for accelerated healing. I’ve supported clients in reducing symptoms of chronic bowel syndromes and autoimmune diseases like Parkinson’s and Hashimoto’s, often decreasing reliance on medications, as supported by Gabor Maté. As a Udemy instructor, I’ve guided over 10,000 students through courses on emotional healing for gut health and narcissistic trauma recovery. My three self-published books focus on holistic gut protocols and healing the “disease to please” through emotional release.

My Trauma-Informed Approach

My practice is complex trauma-informed, somatic, relational, and faith-based, serving clients globally from my base in Toronto, Canada. I’ve coached clients in California, Miami, the UK, Sweden, India, and beyond. My approach evolved to focus on embodied relationship dynamics, addressing the root of trauma to accelerate healing. Unlike traditional therapy, which may cycle through negative emotions, I help you:

• Heal your emotional and relational nervous system for stability and safety.
• Release toxic shame, resentment, and self-sabotage.
• Navigate narcissistic relationships with clear boundaries.
• Awaken authenticity for a soul-aligned life.
• Embrace a slower, creative, and gentle approach to healing.

Using techniques like psychodrama, Gestalt therapy, and shadow work, inspired by Carl Jung, I guide you to uncover “relationship blind spots” and heal attachment styles or trauma bonds. Whether faith-based, emphasizing God’s love, or secular, rooted in neuroscience, my approach fosters self-validation and autonomy, as supported by the Trauma Research Foundation.

Healing Modalities

My Integrative Somatic Trauma Healing Approach includes:

• Embodied Healing: Regulate your nervous system with Somatic Experiencing.
• Gestalt Therapy: Integrate disowned parts for authenticity.
• Shadow Work: Embrace unconscious patterns for self-acceptance.
• Relational Healing: Heal relationship wounds through safe connections.
• Mindfulness-Based Therapy: Release trauma with evidence-based awareness, per Mindful.
• Faith-Based Therapy: Trust in God or a higher power for soul-led healing.

Why Trust Tracey?

My lived experience—overcoming chronic illness, narcissistic abuse, and financial struggles due to trauma—brings deep empathy to my work with others. I’ve healed dysfunctional family and love relationships through a path of deep trauma recovery and faith in God. As a licensed practitioner and counsellor (License #: 12492206, Ontario, practicing since 2012), I blend evidence-based trauma-informed DBT, ACT, Narrative Therapy, and Non-Violent Communication with my integrative and holistic practices. My clients save time, reduce stress, and achieve financial and emotional security by healing shame and anxiety, as noted in neuroscience research.
