EMDR and Trauma Therapy Centre
Registered Social Worker, Registered Social Worker, MSW, RSW
Are you grappling with the question, "How do I overcome this?" A common hurdle individuals often articulate when discussing emotional distress is feeling immobilized. If you're encountering difficulties progressing in your career, relationships, or rediscovering lost joy in life, you might be grappling with unresolved trauma or unaddressed attachment needs. These challenges can manifest physically, such as chronic pain, headaches, or fatigue. We take the time to empathize with your unique journey that has led you here.
You might be navigating through anxiety, depression, or intense emotions like fear or anger. Ultimately, you might feel disconnected and wrestle with existential questions about your beliefs or purpose. Our aim is to offer the support you need to move forward. We endeavour to guide individuals towards a deeper understanding of themselves and how to authentically engage with the world around them.
Recognizing that addressing trauma requires vulnerability and emotional investment, we prioritize cultivating a safe, non-judgmental space for our clients. Our approach to trauma therapy is integrative, aiming for holistic healing. We follow a three-step process: 1) Building a comprehensive understanding of your experiences; 2) Crafting a personalized treatment plan; and 3) Assisting you in finding inner peace and resolution.

Wendy FitzGerald
Counsellor/Therapist, RPC-C
I'm passionate about helping my clients better understand themselves. This self-awareness is the key to overcoming difficult emotions such as anxiety, depression, low mood, stress, and overwhelm, among others. Sometimes they come to me just feeling stuck, unmotivated, and unsure of how to move forward. I work with them to find the reasons behind these challenges and walk with them on the path to healing. I find people and their unique life experiences intriguing, and the most important part of my practice is building a trusting relationship with my clients so they feel safe, accepted, and comfortable opening up about whatever is on their minds.

Fiona Matalon
Counsellor/Therapist, MA, RCC
Are you seeking a more holistic and connected approach to healing and yearning for something much deeper than counselling sessions? Then Therapeutic Mentorship might be for you! Let's connect and discuss this offering for you!
Somatic therapy and inner child work reside at the core of my work. In session, we use the intelligence of the body in the present moment to allow a deeper exploration that goes beyond the everyday mind. Through this inner witness, we explore past and current relationships to dive deeper into our early wounding. By acknowledging and meeting our younger parts, we allow the pain to transform into self love and acceptance. This approach allows an organic process for our pain and suffering to be witnessed, transformed and integrated. The path of true change! When we are truly heard, seen and received by another human being, we come home to the feelings of belonging and acceptance – what we long for all our lives. I guide a self exploration that encourages deep curiosity to look at all parts of ourselves – the good, the dark, the painful and the joy-filled in a safe, non-judgemental space.
