Dena Marie Counselling & EMDR Therapy
Counsellor/Therapist, MEd, RCC
I support clients who have experienced trauma or are living with PTSD by using EMDR to gently process distressing memories that may still feel overwhelming or “stuck.” This therapy helps your brain reframe these experiences so they no longer dominate your thoughts, emotions, or reactions. Through EMDR, clients often notice reduced triggers, increased emotional regulation, and a stronger sense of safety, control, and resilience in their everyday lives.

Dr. Claire Vines, Psy.D., Psychologist / Licensed /Psychotherapy / Psychoanalytic/
Marriage and Family Therapist, Marriage, Couples, LMFT. Psy.D. Trauma-Focused CBT
Remembering that psychological trauma and secondary trauma are connected to fears, negative attachments of unattended emotional memories of past events, it is important to remind yourself that the trauma is over; you have survived it. Take the time to externalize painful emotions. Re-evaluating and perspective of the past can heal the present, leading to a more positive time for the future.

Jayne Batten
Counsellor/Therapist, MSc, CT, MPCC, MBACP
Trauma is the emotional wound that is created in response to a deeply distressing or disturbing event such as the loss of a loved one, or perhaps suffering an accident, abuse or surviving a natural disaster. Equally trauma can result from the drip, drip, drip of negative or abusive circumstances outside our control, that impact our sense of safety, trust and ‘okay-ness’ in the world around us. The emotional impact of trauma can result in long term physical and mental symptoms that make it difficult to function in our everyday lives. It wreaks havoc with our relationships with others. Depression and anxiety very often result from the experience of trauma. Talking therapy can help us to validate our experiences and the feelings, or denial of feelings, that go hand in hand with trauma. In time we can hopefully reframe what causes us to suffer and develop skills to cope, so that we can move forward in our lives.

Gui Mansilla
Registered Psychotherapist, Lawyer (Arg) M.Div (USA) Reg. Psychotherapist (CA) Coach (Ca)
Embark on an extraordinary journey of courageous healing, transforming the echoes of traumatic experiences into the seeds of profound growth and empowerment. Trauma, with its overwhelming and paralyzing presence, holds within it an unexpected doorway to personal development when met with wisdom and the proper support. Unfortunately, many find themselves grappling with the disorienting and immobilizing effects of Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) symptoms.
With the honour of guiding thousands through the intricate process of understanding and methodically healing trauma, I cultivate a therapeutic environment that is more than just safe—it's infused with positivity, warmth, and, when appropriate, a touch of fun. While the path to healing trauma may seem daunting, the journey carries immense benefits for those who bravely confront it with wisdom and robust support systems.
Personally, navigating a significant amount of childhood trauma has equipped me with a profound understanding, coupled with over two decades of professional experience, totalling more than 17 thousand hours of sitting with clients in my psychotherapy practice. Today, I draw from this rich tapestry of personal and professional wisdom to extend hope and support to those on their unique path toward a future marked by more significant health and happiness.
Within you lies transformative potential, akin to emerging "superpowers," waiting to be harnessed as you navigate the intricate healing process. If you're ready to face this challenge with courage and embrace the support you deserve, I wholeheartedly invite you to a consultation. Together, let's chart a course toward a future defined by resilience, growth, and the profound realization of your full potential.

Lexi Gayne Psychotherapy
Registered Psychotherapist, RP
Trauma has a way of forcing the past to intrude on your present, whether it stems from one specific event or a prolonged series of painful experiences. You might find yourself locked in a state of constant hyper-vigilance, having a trauma response to ordinary situations, or experiencing a heavy emotional numbness that leaves you disconnected from yourself and the people you love. Establishing a deep foundation of safety and trust is my absolute highest priority. Moving at a pace that feels entirely secure for you, I will support you in navigating these overwhelming emotions. The focus is on gently helping your nervous system release stored survival energy, allowing the past to finally remain in the past. As this heavy burden lifts, space opens up for hope to return, empowering you to build a future rich with the things that matter most.

Marjan Emami
Counsellor/Therapist, MD, RTC #3608, MPCC-Provisional #4797, ACTA #3122
Trauma often shows up in many areas of life. While PTSD is a clinical diagnosis, trauma is the underlying cause. Healing involves approaching your pain with compassionate curiosity, reconnecting with the body, and challenging the false beliefs formed during the traumatic experience. Because we are hurt in relationships, much of the healing happens through safe, therapeutic connection, and together we will develop new ways of relating, coping, and moving forward.

Michelle Iulianella Counselling & Psychotherapy
Counsellor/Therapist, BEd, MBA, MA, RCC
Generational trauma is the transmission of traumatic experiences and their associated psychological and emotional effects from one generation to the next. This type of trauma can also be passed along through unexamined familial beliefs, sociocultural norms and narratives that describe traumatic events. People with family histories that include systemic oppression or abuse, war, genocide, or marginalization can experience this type of trauma. Generational trauma can manifest as anxiety, depression, anger, guilt, shame, and a sense of disconnectedness or isolation. It can also impact family dynamics and relationships, including the ways in which individuals relate to their families of origin, their partners and their own children. Michelle believes that recognizing and processing generational trauma in therapy is an integral step towards putting an end to the legacy of traumatic experience and promoting healing within individuals and their families.

Trauma and PTSD affect both the mind and the body, often showing up as hypervigilance, emotional overwhelm, numbness, intrusive memories, or physical tension. Approaches like art therapy and sensorimotor therapy gently engage both body and mind, supporting nervous system regulation, safe processing of experiences, and a gradual restoration of stability, choice, and a sense of safety in the present moment.
