Trauma overwhelms our ability to cope, both in the moment and after the event. Our bodies can become stuck in various states (e.g. hyper vigilance or hypo vigilance) and our minds unable to process or respond to information. In order to help restore functionality, both the mind and the body need to be in sync for functional and resilient living.

Valerie Dessaulles
Counsellor/Therapist, RCC
As a paramedic for twelve years I have personally witnessed many traumatic situations first-hand. This gives me the ability to ask you more specific questions about the incident in order to help you understand your reactions, or why you feel certain ways. I understand how certain smells, sounds or places can trigger memories which may make life feel challenging.
