My goal is to help you feel more in control, regain a sense of safety, and move toward healing and strength.

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.

Stephanie Campoli
Registered Social Worker, MSW, RSW

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.

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.

Trauma is usually caused when our needs are not met or we experience a disruption in our lives which has made us feel unsafe or insecure. Looking at the root cause of our trauma helps clients to understand how they have responded to traumatic experiences in their lives.

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.

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.

As a trauma-informed counselling therapist, I have special training in EMDR and Internal Family Systems, two evidence-based practices that work explicitly to bring healing to our traumatic wounds.
