Michelle Labine
Registered Psychotherapist, Registered Psychotherapist, Registered Counselling Therapist, AASECT Certified Sex Therapist
Many of the challenges we experience as adults have roots in early relationships and environments where our emotional, relational, or developmental needs were not consistently met. I work with individuals navigating the lasting impact of complex trauma, including difficulties with self-worth, boundaries, relationships, emotional regulation, and feeling safe to be themselves. Together, we explore these patterns with curiosity and compassion, creating opportunities for healing, growth and meaningful change.

PTSD/Trauma
Julie Taylor Counselling
Counsellor/Therapist, MTC, RCS
Trauma immediately causes a change in our physiology and readies our body to fight, flee or freeze. Trauma embeds itself in our brains and bodies, perhaps partly because of the human will to survive. We have to both understand it and gently take away its power. Trauma is unique: what is traumatic for one person may not be traumatic to another. Trauma causes a miss-match between what we see and reality, causing us to over-react and plunge our bodies into a state of panic: adrenalin flowing and a state of readiness to fight, flee or freeze. Later, our bodies may be plunged into that same hypervigilance for no real reason: that is PTSD. Often we mask how we feel and act how we 'know we should', widening the gap between how we feel inside and what we do. If we don't recognize trauma straight off, and process and heal it, the result of that trauma builds inside us with every new traumatic event, also leading to PTSD. If you have experienced trauma - something that you personally have found traumatic - come explore it. Don't let it take over your life?

Masha Andreeva
Registered Psychotherapist, HonBA, DTATI, RP
Art therapy can be a transformative tool for healing from trauma and PTSD, offering a safe, nonverbal space to process deeply-held emotions and experiences. Through creative expression, you can externalize and make sense of painful memories, gain insight into the underlying patterns, and reconnect with your inner strength. My approach integrates mindfulness, body-based practices, and trauma-informed care, supporting you in staying grounded and present throughout the process. Drawing from my experience with ecotherapy, psychedelic-assisted therapy, and spiritual practices, I guide you in uncovering and transforming limiting beliefs, restoring a sense of control, and fostering resilience as you move forward in your journey toward healing and empowerment.

Kayla Schofield
Registered Psychotherapist, RP
We all have experienced negative events but not necessarily trauma. Trauma is an emotional response to a terrible event like an accident, rape, or natural disaster. Immediately after the event, shock and denial are typical. Longer term reactions include unpredictable emotions, flashbacks, strained relationships, and even physical symptoms like headaches or nausea.
