About
Hi, I’m Joanna — a Registered Psychologist, trauma-informed practitioner, and the creator of Connect & Regulate.
After years of supporting people with anxiety, overwhelm, trauma, and emotional disconnection, I noticed something powerful: most people don’t struggle because they’re “broken” or “unmotivated.” They struggle because their nervous system has never been taught how to feel safe, regulated, and connected.
I created Connect & Regulate to change that.
This platform is a place where psychology meets simplicity—where evidence-based tools are transformed into gentle, accessible resources you can use anytime, anywhere. Whether you’re navigating anxiety, healing from stress, trying to understand your reactions, or supporting a loved one, I want this space to help you feel grounded, empowered, and more at home in yourself.
Here, you’ll find:
Science-backed resources explained in a clear, compassionate way
Regulation tools rooted in nervous system theories, and trauma-informed care
Guides, journals, and worksheets designed to help you reconnect to your
body and emotions
Purchases and tools that have helped me and/or my clients feel grounded and
calm
My hope is that this space makes regulation feel less clinical, less overwhelming, more accessible and more human.
A place where you can exhale, reconnect, and rebuild your inner steadiness—one small moment at a time.
