CIRS Counselling

CIRS Counselling and Trauma Recovery Support

If you've been struggling with symptoms like chronic fatigue, brain fog, anxiety, or inflammation and feel like no one understands, we can help.

Flourish Clinic offers compassionate, evidence-based therapy for those suffering from Chronic Inflammatory Response Syndrome (CIRS).

Our CIRS Counsellor Eve Paraschuk specializes in helping people with CIRS recover through an integrative therapeutic approach. She combines a lived experience of CIRS with somatics, trauma-informed care, and the Shoemaker Protocol.

What Is CIRS Therapy?

CIRS therapy is a specialized form of treatment for people suffering from chronic biotoxin exposure. Unlike traditional talk therapy, CIRS therapy focuses on:

  • Supporting limbic system recovery and emotional regulation
  • Navigating the arising emotions as you progress through the Shoemaker Protocol
  • Addressing the emotional toll of chronic illness
  • A combination of trauma-informed care and environmental health expertise to guide you back to wellness

Work With a Certified CIRS Counselor

Eve is the only practicing therapist that has completed training in CIRS under Dr. Ritchie Shoemaker. She is a certified Proficiency Partner Diplomat in the Shoemaker Protocol and deeply understands the emotional and physiological challenges of living with CIRS. Whether you're newly diagnosed or have been stuck in treatment for years, Eve offers:

  • Therapy aligned with the biochemical and neurological needs of CIRS patients
  • Embodied empathic practice
  • Education and advocacy support
  • Safe space to process trauma and uncertainty

Our Approach to CIRS Treatment

At Flourish Clinic, we understand that true healing from CIRS requires more than just following the Shoemaker Protocol—it requires addressing the emotional, psychological, and physiological toll of living with a complex, often isolating illness.

Our approach is collaborative and stepwise, designed to support both your biology and your emotional wellbeing throughout every stage of recovery. CIRS therapy is woven into your treatment plan, not as an afterthought, but as a foundational part of your healing process.

Assessment & Discovery: We begin by identifying symptom clusters, completing a thorough intake, and guiding you through appropriate diagnostic testing.

Environmental & Emotional Safety: Together, we help you create a living environment that supports your recovery—and provide tools to reduce internal stressors that keep your system stuck.

Phase-Based Recovery: We walk alongside you through each phase of the Shoemaker Protocol, layering in therapeutic support to help you stay grounded and resilient.

Limbic System & Trauma Healing: Many of our clients benefit from counselling that helps unwind trauma, perfectionism, and nervous system dysregulation—all of which are common in CIRS.

Our whole-person approach honours the reality that recovery is not just a physical process, but an emotional one too.

Do I Need CIRS Counselling?

CIRS can trigger nervous system overwhelm, identity loss, and relationship strain. Our CIRS counselling services help with:

  • Emotional regulation
  • Processing medical trauma or gaslighting
  • Rebuilding confidence and identity
  • Mind-body connection and pacing

Even if you’re making progress medically, emotional support can make a critical difference in your healing.

Why Choose Flourish Clinic?

  • One of Canada’s few clinics specializing exclusively in CIRS
  • Deep expertise in environmental medicine and trauma care
  • Personal, non-judgmental support from practitioners who get it
