PTSD/Trauma
Romana Hrivnakova
Registered Psychotherapist, MA, RP, RCC
Healing from trauma requires more than just talking about the past; it requires helping your nervous system feel safe in the present. Drawing on over 15 years of experience in the mental health and addiction field, I have developed a specialized focus on childhood trauma and Complex PTSD (C-PTSD). I understand how early relationship wounds can leave 'parts' of you stuck in survival mode long after the danger has passed.
My approach is gentle, paced, and focused on your safety. We move beyond simple symptom management to address the deep-seated patterns formed in childhood. By combining my extensive clinical background with a compassionate, relational lens, I help you unburden these protective parts and move from a state of constant hyper-vigilance toward a life of genuine internal peace and resilience.

Shauna Switzer, MCP, MA RP
Registered Psychotherapist, MA, MCP, Registered Psychotherapist
Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) is an evidence-based therapy designed to help individuals process and heal from traumatic experiences and distressing memories. EMDR supports the brain’s natural ability to reprocess trauma, reducing the emotional intensity connected to past events while helping clients develop healthier beliefs, emotional regulation, and a greater sense of safety and empowerment. Sensorimotor Psychotherapy is a body-centred approach to trauma therapy that focuses on how trauma is stored within the nervous system and the body. For individuals living with PTSD, this approach helps increase awareness of physical sensations, emotional responses, and survival patterns in a safe and gradual way. By integrating both mind and body in the healing process, clients can build greater emotional regulation, restore a sense of control, and move toward lasting recovery from trauma.

Vanessa Fingland
Counsellor/Therapist, CCPCPR.cand, RPC-C
If you have experienced childhood trauma and are ready to work through it, I can help. You may be noticing triggers in adulthood that stem from the past, it may even be affecting your current relationships. You may be experiencing emotional flashbacks, or anxiety, a constant hypervigilance or intense anger that doesn't seem to match the situation in the moment. These are symptoms of trauma. I know it feels scary to face the past but I can help you move through it slowly and safely. I am a sensitive person too, so I can help you gently move forward in a way that feels safe for you. Contact me for a free 15 minute consultation today to see if we are a good fit.

Liz Witzke
Registered Psychotherapist, RPQ, BA, LLB, CSAT, CPTT
A traumatic event has left you in deep distress. Whether it was physical or psychological your bodily integrity has been threatened and you do not have enough resources to compensate for the symptoms you are experiencing. Hyper-vigilance, avoidance, increased arousal and activity, depression, intrusive thoughts, difficulty maintaining connection to others and the weight of it all can be overwhelming. These reactions are completely natural, and it’s okay if you feel lost right now. My purpose is to help you process what has happened and begin to find steady ground again.

Donna McLean
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, BA Honours (Psychology), MSW, RSW
Sometimes traumatic past experiences can interfere with our present life, with emotions or reactions that seem too intense for the situation. With Post Traumatic Stress Disorder, we may also have memories or images that affect our waking and sleeping life. I have specialized training in EMDR, which helps you process intense past experiences so you can put those emotions and experiences in the past. Internal Family Systems therapy can help you heal the source of the intense emotions and develop a positive relationship to the parts of you that you may feel a struggle with. I work with you to identify your goals and work at a pace that feels right for you, so you can be in charge of your healing.

Support for Trauma and PTSD
Trauma leaves imprints—not just in memory, but in the body, the nervous system, and the subconscious. I offer a safe, attuned space to explore those imprints with care, clarity, and compassion.
As a trauma-informed therapist, I understand how deeply trauma can affect relationships, emotional regulation, and daily functioning. My approach is gentle yet effective, combining Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), somatic awareness, mindfulness, and reflective process work to support healing at your own pace.
Areas of Focus Include:
• Complex trauma and early relational wounds
• Single-incident trauma and acute stress
• Military and first responder experiences
• Interpersonal violence and emotional abuse
• Anxiety, panic, and hypervigilance linked to trauma
This work is about restoring a sense of safety—internally and relationally. Together, we’ll explore what’s been held, what’s been silenced, and what’s ready to be released. I prioritize trust, respect, and emotional presence, creating a space where you can feel deeply heard and supported as you reconnect with your strength and resilience.
