Trauma and PTSD
Whitney Reinhart
Registered Psychotherapist, MA., RP.
The effects of trauma can leave us feeling vulnerable and unsafe long after the event itself. So often people can be left feeling hopeless, disconnected, and ashamed. Healing these wounds are essential to developing a strong sense of self, positive self view, and safety within relationships. I work from a trauma-informed perspective and pull from approaches that will allow us to build an understanding of the protective strategies formed to survive the emotional and mental impact of the trauma, and cultivate self-acceptance and trust with ourselves and others.

Trauma and PTSD
Dr. Robert T. Muller
Psychologist, Ph.D., C.Psych.
The effects of a traumatic past can be enormous, and often clients start their work with me feeling quite overwhelmed by their painful memories and experiences. Trauma therapy helps people move forward with their lives, when they've felt stuck for so long. I have written two bestselling books on trauma therapy: Trauma and the Struggle to Open Up (2018) and Trauma and the Avoidant Client (2010). My work centers on helping people be able to find practical ways to move forward, and at the same time, unpack their many complicated feelings about their past experiences.

Do you think you might be suffering from Complex PTSD? Have you experienced repeated, prolonged exposure to traumatic events such as: childhood abuse, neglect, disrupted attachment, relational trauma, domestic violence, bullying? Do you ever feel internally chaotic, or disconnected from your self and others? Trauma shapes our nervous system and leaves our bodies bracing to be hurt again which is often experienced as living in a constant state of fight or flight.

Collaborative Care Therapy
Registered Psychotherapist, Registered Social Workers and Psychotherapists
Trauma can profoundly impact life, often in ways that are deeply embedded and not immediately apparent. At Collaborative Care Therapy, we address trauma using an evidence-based, phased approach that is integrative, relational, and trauma-informed, recognizing the unique journey each individual faces in their healing.
Our therapy sessions are structured to navigate through the stages of trauma recovery carefully. We begin with establishing safety and stability, ensuring that you feel secure and grounded before delving deeper. This phase is crucial in building a trusting therapeutic relationship and providing you with tools for emotional regulation and coping.
In the next phase, we gently and respectfully approach the process of remembering and mourning. This involves exploring the trauma narrative, validating experiences, and working through the memories and emotions associated with the traumatic events.
The final phase focuses on reconnection and integration. Here, the goal is to help you integrate the traumatic experiences into your life story without them dominating your present or future. We work on building resilience, enhancing self-esteem, and fostering a sense of empowerment. This phase is about moving beyond trauma, embracing growth, and looking towards the future with hope and confidence.
Throughout this phased approach, we ensure that each step is taken with care, always respecting your pace and readiness. Our virtual therapy sessions provide a convenient and comfortable space for this important work, ensuring that you have consistent support wherever you are.
Begin your path to healing with Collaborative Care Therapy, where we are committed to guiding you through the complexities of trauma towards a life of greater peace and fulfillment.
