Tehmina Ayana Meherali
Counsellor/Therapist, M.Ed, CCC, CMHP
I support individuals who are navigating the effects of trauma — whether recent or long past. Trauma can shape how we see ourselves, others, and the world, often showing up as anxiety, emotional overwhelm, numbness, or difficulty trusting.
My approach is gentle, trauma-informed, and paced according to your readiness. Together, we create a safe and supportive space to process experiences, strengthen coping skills, and rebuild a sense of safety, empowerment, and self-trust.

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.

Aaron Kapin
Somatic Experiencing Practitioner, SEP, LMT
From the perspective of Somatic Experiencing, trauma isn't the thing that happened 15 years ago (or last week), it's the ongoing effects that that incident continues to have on your body.
We can work together to figure out how your body is still reacting to that incident, and work to help your body 'catch up' to the present moment. If you're safer now than you were then, there are ways we can help your body 'complete' the threat response from so long ago, and land in the comparative safety of the present moment.
I can't treat PTSD, so if you've been diagnosed with PTSD you should still work with a licensed mental health professional, even as you work with me. What I can do is support your body in turning down the volume on that threatened feeling that has been coming up since the trauma-inducing events.

Caroline Lacelle
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, MSW, RSW
My treatment approach follows the three phases of trauma treatment; resourcing, reprocessing, and reorienting. Together we will determine the resources you may need to tap into a grounded sense of self through somatic practices and parts work. Deep Brain Reorienting, EMDR, and ART guide reprocessing to shift past experiences into the past so you can reorient and engage fully in the present.

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.

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.

Hardie Counselling & BrainWorX, Inc
Registered Psychotherapist, BFA, B.Ed, MA, CPC, CCPCPR, CCAC, ICADC, CSAT, CCTP, CCTACP
PTSD is more common and complex than many realize. Often, it's mistakenly limited to military veterans, survivors of natural disasters, or victims of violence. However, PTSD can affect anyone, regardless of socioeconomic status, life experiences, age, or gender. It impacts well-being in four key ways: biologically, psychologically, socially, and spiritually.
Individuals are at higher risk if they have experienced direct trauma exposure, witnessed trauma, experienced trauma as a child, or did not receive adequate help.
If you or someone you know is struggling, I am a trained trauma therapist ready to help you recover and heal so you don't have to continue suffering.
