Counsellor/Therapist, Registered Therapeutic Counsellor, Certified Trauma-Informed Coach
Do you feel disconnected from yourself? Do you push away the painful memories and experinces? Are you fearful of facing those experinces and this is keeping you from truly taking back your life and healing from your experience? Trauma affects us all very differently. There is no one way to navigate the complex emotions, feelings and biological changes that occur in the presence of trauma. Together, we can journey down this path to self awareness and discover your truths. Once we come to understand the beliefs, behaviours and emotions that come with trauma, we will be able to turn our focus to learning more about how to heal from them and work towards a life that you feel in control of.

Lorna Barnes, Oak Tree Counselling
Licensed Professional Counsellor, CT, CPC
Trauma is usually caused when our needs are not met or we experience a disruption in our lives which has made us feel unsafe or insecure. Looking at the root cause of our trauma helps clients to understand how they have responded to traumatic experiences in their lives. I work toward building safety, emotional regulation, boundaries, self-confidence, coping skills, forgiveness and supports.
