Laird Counselling Services
Registered Psychotherapist, MA, RP
Trauma is a normal reaction to adverse life events. If you are suffering with feelings of anxiety or dread, low energy, or low mood, you may be dealing with the after-effects of trauma. Trauma is often accompanied by nightmares or flashbacks. Any of these symptoms are hard to deal with and can cause additional problems like poor sleep, poor memory and focus, and difficulty making decisions. Even everyday tasks can feel like a major undertaking when you are struggling with these symptoms. If your life feels harder than it should, please reach out to us for a free consultation to talk about treatments and strategies to address these issues. We are here to discuss your unique situation and find a plan personalized for you and your needs.

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.

North Star Therapy-- Cleo Haber
Registered Social Worker, BSW, MSW, RSW
If you have experienced trauma, you may be living with normal but unwanted emotional and physical effects of trauma. Are you experiencing panic attacks, anxiety, depression or feelings of shame, fear or anger? Perhaps your sleep is disrupted, or you feel disconnected from your body at times. Psychotherapy can be an effective way to heal from trauma. We will work with you – at your own pace - to make new meaning from past experiences, while teaching you strategies to stay grounded and feel safer in your mind and body. We use trauma-informed approaches to help you feel less overwhelmed, and create safety in the present.

I support clients living with trauma and PTSD by creating a safe space to explore the emotional and relational impact of what they've been through. Through a psychodynamic lens, we gently uncover how past experiences may live on in the body, shape beliefs about safety and self-worth, and influence current relationships. Our work honors your pace and resilience, supporting integration, self-compassion, and a renewed sense of inner stability.

KDW Counselling & Consulting
Registered Psychotherapist, RP or RSW
Living through trauma can leave lasting effects—memories that intrude, a constant sense of alertness, or feeling shut down and disconnected. PTSD and other trauma responses aren’t signs of weakness; they’re the mind and body’s way of trying to cope with overwhelming experiences. 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.

Clare Pentelow
Therapist, MSW, RSW
Trauma isn't just about what happened in the past; it’s about how those experiences live on in your body and mind today. It can feel like being stuck in a constant state of high alert, experiencing intrusive memories, or feeling profoundly disconnected from yourself and others. Whether you are navigating a single distressing event or a history of relational trauma, I provide a secure, compassionate space to unpack the impact these experiences have had on your sense of safety and your identity.
My approach is deeply trauma-informed and rooted in the belief that your "symptoms" are actually survival strategies your system created to protect you. We can use EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) to help your nervous system finally "digest" and file away traumatic memories that feel stuck in the present. By weaving in IFS (Internal Family Systems) and psychodynamic insights, we work to unburden the parts of you that carry the weight of the past. My goal is to help you move from a state of survival toward a reclaimed sense of peace, resilience, and wholeness.

PTSD/Trauma
Mind Path Therapy
Therapist, MSW, RSW
Traumatic experiences can happen to anyone and are an overwhelming shock to the nervous system that often resolves in months. For many people, however, trauma continues to live in the nervous system, taking the form of post-traumatic symptoms, like re-experiencing, disturbed sleep, hypervigilance, anxiety and depression, and avoidance patterns that interfere with relationships and work. I use an integrative approach to working with my trauma clients, including Cognitive Processing Therapy (a form of CBT for trauma), Dialectical Behavioural Therapy techniques (to help with emotion regulation), and training I've done in somatic and body-based therapy techniques. These approaches help those suffering with post-traumatic symptoms understand how trauma is stored and manifests in the body, and how to gently and mindfully contact their trauma reactions in ways that help their nervous system become less reactive and more open and resilient. I also incorporate Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) techniques and approaches, especially practices that help with contacting the present moment, unhooking from disturbing or disruptive thoughts and feelings, and grounding yourself in your values as the compass to a more engaged life that is not dominated by trauma.

Trauma and PTSD can affect emotional regulation, relationships, identity, physical well-being, and the ability to feel safe in the world. I provide trauma-informed virtual psychotherapy and trauma therapy for adults experiencing overwhelming emotional states, dissociation, grief, chronic stress, complex trauma, and the lasting impact of difficult life experiences. I recognize that trauma is always experienced within a cultural and relational context, and that broader social worlds shape how people make meaning of suffering, safety, identity, and healing.
