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.

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.

Rebekkah Stainton
Registered Psychotherapist, RCC
When someone has experienced a traumatic event or series of events, the resulting impact can influence many areas of their life (e.g. work, relationships, self-esteem, etc.) and overwhelm their ability to cope.
The fall-out of trauma can take many forms including confusion, negative self-image, shame, guilt, anger, deep sadness, grief, anxiety, depression, feelings of isolation/ loneliness, nightmares, intrusive thoughts, as well as physical challenges.
Not all negative past experiences announce themselves as "trauma." Sometimes they show up as feeling disconnected from your body, difficulty with intimacy, or patterns that don't quite make sense. Whether it's sexual abuse, sexual assault, childhood neglect, or other overwhelming experiences, you don't need to have named it as trauma to benefit from this work.
Complex trauma—especially sexual trauma—often lives in the body long after the mind thinks it has "moved on." This work focuses on helping you reclaim parts of yourself that may have been shut down or protected for good reason. We go at your pace to process experiences that may still be influencing how you move through the world.
I work with clients who present as high-functioning but feel stuck, numb, tense, or disconnected in ways they can’t fully explain. The goal is to help you feel safe and connected in your own skin again, to trust your instincts, and to engage in life from a place of choice rather than protection. You deserve to feel whole and present in your own life.
**I’m an approved provider for the Crime Victim Assistance Program, the Residential Historical Abuse Program, and Survivors of Residential Schools. My approach is steady, trauma-informed, and grounded in helping you reclaim safety, capacity, and a sense of self that feels whole and trustworthy.

Anna Vaisser Psychotherapy
Counsellor/Therapist, MD, MEd, RCC
Trauma can leave the nervous system in a state of vigilance, overwhelm, or shutdown, making everyday life feel unpredictable or exhausting. In my work with trauma and PTSD, I use a gentle, integrative approach that includes somatic therapies, mindfulness, parts work (IFS), neuropsychology, CBT, and narrative processing. Together, we help your body and mind reconnect, reduce reactivity, and build the capacity to feel safe inside yourself again. My focus is on strengthening self‑regulation, healing protective parts, and supporting you in reclaiming a sense of agency, steadiness, and inner coherence after overwhelming experiences.

Shannon MacGregor
Licensed Mental Health Counsellor, RTC, MTC, RCS, NARM Therapist
Past and recent painful life experiences such as adverse childhood experiences, domestic abuse,
intergenerational, racial trauma, accidents or any other distressing or disturbing events can cause psychological, emotional, spiritual, and physical trauma, often resulting in unfavorable behaviors and strategies, called coping mechanisms, to manage the emotional stress and pain. Unresolved trauma damages a person’s sense of safety, self-evaluation, as well as their ability to regulate emotions and navigate relationships with self and others. By concentrating on what’s happening in your body, you can get in touch with trauma-related energy and tension, and your natural survival instincts will take over, safely releasing pent-up energy through shaking, crying, and other forms of physical and emotional release.

Victoria Jade Karra

Trauma can impact how you relate to yourself, others, emotions, safety, and the world around you. I recognize the vulnerability and courage involved in turning toward painful experiences and the protective patterns that may have developed in response to them. Therapy can become a compassionate and grounded space to explore these experiences with greater safety, self-understanding, and support while moving toward healing, authenticity, and meaningful change.

Selah Counselling, Mediation, and Training Center
Registered Social Worker, BSW, MSW, RSW
If you are living with trauma or PTSD, you may feel as though your body and mind are still reacting to something that has already happened. You might experience intrusive memories, nightmares, emotional numbness, heightened startle responses, or strong reactions that feel out of proportion to the present moment. Trauma is not simply remembered. It is often stored in the nervous system.
At Selah Counselling, we approach trauma with care, pacing, and clinical precision. Our first focus is safety and stabilization. We help you strengthen grounding skills and nervous system regulation so your body feels more secure before processing traumatic material. In addition to talk therapy, we may use bottom-up approaches that work directly with how trauma is stored in the body. This can include EMDR and other evidence-based methods designed to help the brain reprocess traumatic memories in a way that reduces emotional intensity and restores integration.
Our goal is not to rush the story, but to help you regain a sense of control, clarity, and steadiness. Healing from trauma is possible when the body, brain, and narrative are supported together.

Shaunna Grams, Grams Counselling Services Inc.
Counsellor/Therapist, Registered Clinical Counsellor
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.

Nicklas Ehrlich
Counsellor/Therapist, MSW, RCC (#0843), RSW (#11561), Psychotherapist, Counsellor, Life-Coach, Hypnotherapist, Advanced Neurofeedback Trainer
Trauma and PTSD is greatly helped when the central nervous system/brain is reset from "fight-flight-freeze-collapse". Trauma can live in the unconscious mind, nervous system/brain for years as the mind and the body do not know that the trauma is over. Neurofeedback and hypnosis disconnect trauma.
