Meaningfully Connected Counselling and Psychotherapy
Registered Psychotherapist, RP or RP (Qualifying)
Have you been through something that seems to have shattered you into a million pieces. Do you feel stressed and on edge? Are you cycling between withdrawal and lashing out on others, even loved ones? Do you feel like you are not yourself? Are you isolated and having trouble reaching out to people you would usually reach out to? If so, you may be doing through trauma, and the sudden changes you are feeling are not you or a reflection of you, but of how the body experiences trauma. If you are tired of feeling overwhelmed, and feel like you might be in a better place to deal with what happened or is happening, then please reach out. We work with various traumas across the lifespan such as childhood neglect, emotional and physical abuse, or other personal events that have been devastating and demoralizing. We use an eclectic approach, drawing on numerous approaches including Emotion-focused, Cognitive Behavioural, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Mindfulness, Psychodynamic, Internal Family Systems, Family Systems, Poly-Vagal theory, and Solution-Focused to meet you where you are.
If you are looking for a compassionate therapist who cares not only about your difficulties, but also about how they developed and how they impact you, who is culturally sensitive and aware, and who will support your self-discovery, our team would be honoured to be a part of your journey. Contact us directly to schedule a complimentary phone consultation where we can answer your questions. You deserve a peaceful life.

Amy Moroz
Psychologist, M.Ed.C.Psych. Clinical & Counselling Psychologist
help people under chronic stress—especially those with trauma histories—learn to pause, regroup, and respond more intentionally. Whether you're feeling overwhelmed by work, caregiving, or emotional patterns that won’t let up, I bring a grounding presence and use a combination of mindfulness, Emotion-Focused Therapy, and Cognitive Processing Therapy (CPT). My approach supports you in building nervous system resilience, challenging stuck beliefs, and moving from survival mode into a calmer, more values-based way of living.
Please note, I support WSIB clients, including first responders and healthcare professionals, who are navigating occupational trauma, burnout, and return-to-work stress. Using a tailored mix of Emotion-Focused Therapy, mindfulness, and Cognitive Processing Therapy (CPT), I help clients process what they've been through, regulate their nervous systems, and move forward with clarity and strength. My approach honours your lived experience while building practical tools for sustainable recovery.

Melanie Wuytenburg
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, MSW, RSW
Living through trauma can leave lasting effects—memories that intrude, a constant sense of alertness, or feeling shut down and disconnected. It's crucial to know that PTSD and other trauma responses aren’t signs of weakness; they are the mind and body’s way of trying to cope with overwhelming experiences.
I work with trauma, PTSD, and complex, developmental trauma (C-PTSD). I approach this work with sensitivity, recognizing the profound impact these experiences have on your mental, emotional, and physical well-being.
Because there isn't a one-size-fits-all approach to healing trauma, my work is built upon robust trauma frameworks. I offer specialized, evidence-based modalities including:
Internal Family Systems (IFS)
Sensorimotor Psychotherapy
Deep Brain Reorienting (DBR)
In therapy, there’s space to work through these patterns at a pace that feels safe. Together, we focus on helping you regain a sense of stability, reduce the weight of the past, and move toward feeling more present and whole. My goal is to empower you to reclaim your fundamental sense of safety, agency, and vitality.

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.

McDowall Integrative Psychology and Healthcare
Psychologist, Psychologist, Registered Psychotherapist, Pre Registration Professionals
The primary indicators of PTSD are 1) re-experiencing of the event, through flashbacks, nightmares and distressing memories, 2) avoidance, through numbing the emotions and feeling detached from others, and 3) hypervigilance and a chronic state of anxious arousal. They may feel irritable and have outbursts of anger and may stop participating in activities and relationships that used to bring them happiness before the event. These are natural reactions to the extreme stress they have endured, and continue to endure, and can make life very difficult for the individual and those who love them.
If you or someone you know has experienced a traumatic event, you may recognize some of these symptoms in yourself or your friend/loved one. Take heart, because there is help and there is hope. PTSD is often a chronic condition, but it does not have to be a permanent life sentence. With courage and perseverance, you can overcome your body’s safety mechanisms and protective behaviours and break free of the debilitating cycle of fear, avoidance, pain, and confusion.
How McDowall Integrative Psychology & Healthcare can help you.
At McDowall Integrative Psychology & Healthcare, we take pride in providing our clients with a warm, confidential and safe environment so you will feel open to discuss whatever is on your mind. Making you feel comfortable each and every time you visit is very important to us.
Some stress at work is normal, but if you find yourself under a lot of pressure and this negatively affects other areas of your life such as your social, personal, and physical domains, then you might benefit from our counselling services.
We provide a confidential, compassionate, and non-judgmental environment where you can speak to one of our therapists about the issues you are experiencing. We will help you implement some coping strategies or improve your existing ones in order to improve your well-being, not simply during your work day but throughout the long-term. We look forward to working with you through the pressures you are facing and help strengthen your resilience to external and internal contributors of stress.

Samantha Mirarchi | Wild Sage Therapy
Registered Social Worker, MSW, RSW
Trauma can leave lasting effects even long after the event is over. You might find yourself feeling constantly on edge, emotionally numb, easily triggered, or stuck in patterns that you know are connected to something deeper. Whether it’s a single traumatic event or years of ongoing trauma, your nervous system has been doing its best to protect you, but now, you're ready to start healing.
In therapy, we create a safe and supportive space to help you process your experiences at your own pace. We’ll work together to reduce the intensity of symptoms, rebuild your sense of safety, and help you feel more in control of your body, emotions, and life. Our approach is always trauma-informed, compassionate, and tailored to what feels manageable for you.
You don’t have to keep reliving the past. Healing is possible, and you deserve it.

Trauma and PTSD is more widespread than was previously believed. It is often disbelieved. Often you will blame yourself. I will help you understand what happened and what it did to you.

Dr. Angel Enrique Pacheco, Ph.D., C.Psych.
Psychologist, Registered Clinical Psychologist
PTSD means that when faced with certain environmental stimuli similar to those present when you were traumatized, you develop the same or similar-level of physiological and emotional responses to the present circumstances even in the absence of additional trauma. This requires specialized training in the assessment and treatment of the condition for you to feel better.

Lori Schledewitz
Counsellor/Therapist, MACP, RP
Do you find yourself dealing with current or past trauma? Experiencing feelings of shame and worthlessness, no thoughts or feelings about your future or poor concentration and memory, nightmares or sleeplessness, increased anxiety or episodes of panic - and curious or fearful of what may have happened to you?
I can relate to what you are struggling with and understand how hard it can be to cope with these issues, including the desperation you might feel that current coping strategies aren't working.
I am here for you. I understand that traumatic events or experiences (even indirect ones) can overwhelm your ability to cope, adding to the sense of powerlessness, frustration and lack of control. As humans, we have a fundamental need to feel safe, protected and loved - and when our world is turned upside down, and those basic needs are unmet, we do our best to restore some balance, an innate biological response of survival mode.
There is hope. Together we will develop flexible ways to manage this survival response and work towards resolving trauma using an integrative approach and a compassionate lens. It takes work to override that protection autopilot, but if you are ready for a change in your life (or even curious), I am willing to roll up my sleeves, get in the trenches and work alongside you. You deserve to experience freedom, peace and joy and live a rich and meaningful life.
