Ms. Clare Pentelow
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, M.S.W., R.S.W.
Trauma is the result of an event that shatters your feelings of safety. This may be a single event, or multiple events over the course of a lifetime. I provide a warm, non judgmental approach to working with clients that have dealt with such challenging events. By going at a pace that is comfortable for my clients I work to create a safe relationship where they can feel comfortable opening up. Once safety is established, I support my client in processing the traumatic memories and the beliefs that are a result of these events. This could be through different talk therapy techniques (internal family systems, relational therapy, CBT, compassion focused therapy, strengths based therapy), or through Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) depending on what feels like the best fit for them.

Loralee Schultz
Registered Psychotherapist, BSc Psyc, MACP, Registered Psychotherapist (Qualifying) CRPO & CCPA & BCACC Member
Trauma is not just a collection of painful memories from your past; it lives on dynamically in how your physical body and nervous system react to the present. Whether you are dealing with single-incident trauma or long-term complex trauma (C-PTSD), my approach focuses on creating deep, collaborative safety. Using evidence-based frameworks like EMDR, we gently process distressing memories so they finally lose their sharp emotional charge. Our goal is to de-escalate your body's survival responses, unmask childhood or societal expectations, and help you transition from a state of constant survival into a life of true self-discovery.

Shane Smyth
Registered Psychotherapist, MA, RP, OACCPP
Being stuck with memories and emotions from traumatic events can really hold people back from engaging in a rich and meaningful life. Trauma comes in many forms and is any thing that negatively impacts on someones sense of well being. I am trained in many forms of therapy that can be used to reduce the impact of trauma and PTSD and have worked with first responders, veterans, people from violent families, people who were bullied and many other forms of trauma.

Rebecca Goldstein, TuneinTherapy, ADHD | Trauma | Autism
Registered Social Worker, RSW, MSW, MTA, BMT, FAMI
Trauma is not always just about what happened to you — it is also about what your mind, body, and nervous system had to do to survive.
Trauma and PTSD can affect emotional regulation, relationships, trust, identity, chronic stress, chronic pain, self-worth, and the exhausting feeling of being stuck in survival mode even when you are trying hard to move forward.
My approach is trauma-informed, compassionate, and grounded in both professional and lived understanding. With experience in acute mental health, hospital settings, music therapy, service in the Canadian Armed Forces, and work across grief, neurodivergence, and relational healing, I recognize that trauma impacts people in deeply personal and often complex ways.
I integrate practical, creative, and evidence-informed approaches including trauma-focused therapy, parts work (IFS-informed), EMDR-informed strategies, nervous system support, and arts-based modalities when helpful — because healing is not one-size-fits-all.
Together, we work on understanding survival patterns, reducing shame, processing trauma in ways that feel safe and realistic, rebuilding self-trust, and creating meaningful change so life can become more than just surviving.

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.

Kai DeMaeyer, Talk with Kai Psychotherapy
Registered Psychotherapist, MACP, RP (Q)
Trauma reshapes how the nervous system understands safety, and it doesn't always look like flashbacks. I work with clients carrying complex relational trauma, single-incident PTSD, and the particular weight that accumulates in first responder work, where there's often no space to process what's been witnessed and an expectation to keep moving. Whether the trauma is layered over years or tied to specific events, we work at a pace that doesn't outrun your capacity to stay present.

Mariya Garnet
Therapist, Registered Psychotherapist ( Qualifying)
work with complex trauma through the lens of NARM, the NeuroAffective Relational Model. NARM understands trauma not as a single event but as the way early relational environments shaped your relationship to yourself, your needs, your boundaries, and your capacity for connection. We work with what is alive in you right now, the patterns your nervous system is still running, rather than asking you to retell or relive the past. This is present-focused, body-informed, and relational at its core.

Mind By Design®
Registered Psychotherapist, Psychology and Coaching Clinics
Although PTSD is usually associated with soldiers returning from war, it covers a significantly wider population. This is because PTSD is a pervasive mental illness that is typically brought on by the experience (or witnessing) of trauma associated with death, threat of death, serious injury, sexual violence, etc. Traumatic events are typically unexpected, and the sufferer can often feel powerless to stop or change the event.

John Harrison, CFIR St Catharines
Counsellor/Therapist, PhD
Trauma can have a lasting impact on how we see ourselves and the world, as well as our relationships, and neuroscience has shown how trauma, particularly when experienced when young within our intimate relationships, can influence the development and functional integrations of our brains and nervous system. My trauma-informed approach emphasizes creating felt safety within the therapeutic relationship, and from this place of safety we can begin to understand how to metabolize the trauma and reclaim connection with ourselves and those that we value in our lives.
