PTSD/Trauma
Sabrina Ragan
Psychologist, CCC., CPT, R.Psych
When a child experiences trauma—whether it’s a single event or ongoing stress—it can overwhelm their ability to cope and leave lasting emotional imprints. I specialize in working with children who have experienced trauma or show signs of PTSD, using play therapy, art, and attachment-based approaches to gently support healing. In our sessions, children are given a safe space to express their experiences without pressure, regain a sense of safety, and slowly process what they’ve been through at a pace that honors their nervous system.
Children are also deeply impacted by their parent’s trauma, even if they can’t fully articulate it. That’s why I offer counseling and parent support to help caregivers navigate their own healing while staying emotionally available for their child. Whether trauma is part of your child’s story, your own, or both, therapy provides a bridge toward connection, understanding, and lasting resilience. Healing is possible—and it begins with feeling safe, seen, and supported.

Tracey MacKenzie
Counsellor/Therapist, MSc, CCC #7392
These days, the word "trauma" seems to be a buzz-word that people are using to describe upsetting experiences, but that is so minimizing. Trauma is REAL and huge and overwhelming. It is having horrific things done to you without your consent, it is being in a life-threatening situation, it is having experiences that no one should ever have and which the brain just cannot process on its own. And then somehow having to live a "normal" life thereafter?! Common feelings are guilt, shame, and continued fear; common behaviours are escape, addictions, perfectionism, inability to manage emotions or deal with certain people ... oh so many! And while you have been harmed, you have not been broken. Let's start putting you back together by processing those events and feelings, reprogramming your brain to think differently about yourself, and learning how to live your life differently, free from the demons of the past.

Angela Fawcett
Counsellor/Therapist, BSW, MSW, RSW
Trauma can come from many different experiences and it can affect people in many different ways. You might notice feeling on edge, easily startled, emotionally overwhelmed, numb, or disconnected. Some people experience flashbacks, nightmares, or strong reactions that feel hard to understand or control. Even when the event is in the past, the impact can still feel very present.
I help people make sense of how past experiences are showing up in the present and how they are affecting thoughts, emotions, body responses, and relationships. We work at a pace that feels safe, helping you understand the protective responses that developed over time and how they may be getting triggered now.
We also focus on practical ways to feel more grounded and present, including learning tools to calm the nervous system, reduce overwhelm, and build a greater sense of safety in your day to day life. Alongside this, we gently work with the parts of you that carry fear, shame, anger, or pain, so they do not have to carry it alone.
Healing does not mean forgetting what happened. It means gradually feeling more present, more in control of your responses, and more able to live without the past feeling like it is happening all over again.
