A ship does not sail with yesterday's wind.
-Louis L'Amour
The collection of memories we each have become a part of our unique human experience. Sometimes past events that were scary, troubling, or traumatic become stuck in our minds and influence our thoughts, emotions, and behaviours in the present. EMDR is one of the ways we can help understand how the past can affect the present. By working together to gently process the old stuff that is getting in the way, healing and growth can occur.

Viewpoint Calgary Psychological Services
Psychologist, RPsych
When you’re carrying the weight of trauma, the past doesn't stay in the past—it shows up in your body, your thoughts, and your nervous system every single day. Reeling from intrusive memories, sudden panic, hypervigilance, or a constant sense of emotional numbness, you may feel like safety is always just out of reach. You shouldn't have to stay trapped in survival mode or carry the heavy burden of painful memories on your own.
At Viewpoint Psychological Services in Calgary, our therapists offer a safe, confidential, and deeply compassionate space to help you reclaim your life after trauma. Using specialized, trauma-informed, and evidence-based therapies, we partner with you to gently process painful experiences without overwhelming your system, helping you restore a sense of control and safety from the inside out.
Together, we’ll help you:
- Soothe Systemic Alarm & Hypervigilance: Learn practical nervous-system regulation tools to calm panic, ease physical tension, and reduce the intensity of intrusive thoughts or flashbacks.
- Process Painful Memories Safely: Unpack past experiences at your own pace in an environment designed strictly for safety, care, and control—without pressure or re-traumatization.
- Rebuild Internal Safety & Connection: Disarm trauma-driven fear, restore trust in yourself and others, and step back into your present life with grounded confidence and peace.
Your past may have shaped you, but it doesn't have to define your future. Let’s partner together to help you step out of survival mode, heal from within, and reclaim a life of genuine peace and resilience.

Psychologist, MA, Registered Provisional Psychologist (AB), RP (ON), CT, CCC, CCTP
Trauma is often viewed as an “event” or “experience” like a terrible accident, abuse, a disaster, a death, etc. And it is a common view that the event or experience has to be considered “big” like these examples. And while such events and experiences can definitely be traumatic, other views expand on this, such as with the thinking that:
>Trauma is not an event or an experience as such, it’s what’s stored in the brain and the body. (There is a book called “The Body Keeps the Score” by Dr. Bessel Van Der Kolk describing this.)
>“Traumatic experiences” don’t have to be so “big”, and what is traumatic for you might not be traumatic for someone else, depending on things like if someone is more sensitive than someone else.
Also, sometimes events enacted, witnessed, or experienced can be impactful because they run counter to your sense of morality and ethics, and these can be difficult to recover from too.
While some people spontaneously recover from trauma over time with the love and support of family and friends, others may suffer from effects of lasting trauma, which can vary greatly from person to person but might include living with deep emotional pain, avoiding reminders of the event or experience, feeling depressed or nervous, feeling like the event is still happening, feeling very angry or guilty, having difficulty sleeping, judgments of self or others, or other effects, long after the actual experience has passed.
In these circumstances, the support, guidance, and assistance of a counsellor can often be helpful in lessening the impact of the event or events on your life in the here and now, such as by helping you find healthy ways to cope with the lingering effects of the trauma, though certainly the road can sometimes be difficult.
If you feel you are living with the effects of trauma and are wanting a more satisfying and values-directed life, I might be able to assist.

Kate Hollowell Sheldon
Psychologist, MC, R.Psych.
My career is based on assessing and treating trauma and PTSD. I work with this on a daily basis in the correctional services system and within the community. Trauma can be experienced in many different ways and not everyone expresses it the same. As well, trauma can be suppressed and can come up decades after the event took place. We work from a bottom up approach to create safety in the body and to work with the nervous system before any processing occurs. I have worked with men and women who have experienced trauma as part of their work (military, first responders etc.) and within relationships (abuse), or with natural disaster (floods). Regardless of the nature of the trauma, we can work on moving through it so it does not affect so much of your life in such an acute way.

Rawda Tomoum
Counsellor/Therapist, RCC, CCC, CGT
Trauma can take many forms. It may come from physical or sexual harm, but it can also develop through betrayal by a spouse or friend, ongoing unsafety in relationships, emotional neglect, or wounds endured while growing up. These experiences can affect how safe you feel, how you relate to others, how you talk to yourself and how your mind and body respond in the present. I help you understand these responses and where they come from, and I help you process what happened and regain a greater sense of safety, choice, and control. You do not have to carry these open wounds forever. They can be scars from the past that no longer dictate your today or tomorrow.
