Adrie-Anne Gamble
Counsellor/Therapist, MPCC, CCC, EMDR | ERP | IFS | Attachment
Trauma can change the way you think, feel, relate to others, and experience the world around you. Even when the danger has passed, your mind and body may continue responding as though it hasn’t. Together, we’ll understand how your experiences have shaped these patterns and use evidence based therapies to help your nervous system, thoughts, emotions, and beliefs begin to change.

Trauma can impact us in so many different ways and can feel overwhelming and confusing. I intend to help you to understand some of the symptoms you might be experiencing as a result of trauma, and find a way to become desensitized from traumatic experiences so that you are able to feel less overwhelmed and reactive and more able to manage moving through life.

Penelope (Penny) Yen
Psychologist, BA (Hons), MACP, Registered Provisional Psychologist
My therapy style is one of candid compassion. I will wholeheartedly support you and keep your best interests at the forefront without coddling you or feeding you BS.
I integrate several modalities depending on the presenting issue and who you are as a person. I often draw from Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), which I like to call CBT for people who care about why we do the things we do. I have also completed several other trauma-focused trainings designed to relieve the effects of trauma.

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.

Kevin Ruddell
Psychologist, M.A., R. Psych
Trauma can be any event that as a perpetual negative impact on an individual. A common outcome from those that have been traumatizes is PTSD whereby individual re-experience feels of fear and anxiety as a result of the traumatic event. By processing the events and learning how to survive beyond the trauma we can find new ways to thrive in life rather than just survive.

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.

Trudi Jane Wyatt
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.

Mark Giesbrecht, MA, CCC, RCC - Psychotherapist
Counsellor/Therapist, MA, CT, CCC, RCC
Just because something very difficult and negatively impact-full happened to you doesn't necessarily mean you experienced trauma. Trauma is the bodies way of telling us we have not resolved a past event or period of extreme stress over time. There are steps you can take to change how past events continue to impact you today. Freedom from the past is possible.

Melissa Kaylee De Pace
Counsellor/Therapist, CCC, Registered Psychotherapist (Q), CNP, M.A
Trauma can change the way you experience safety, relationships, your body, and even yourself. You may find yourself constantly on alert, avoiding reminders of what happened, feeling emotionally disconnected, struggling with intrusive memories, or noticing that your nervous system reacts even when you know logically that you are safe.
I have experience working with trauma and PTSD, including supporting clients following motor vehicle accidents, injuries, and other distressing life experiences. My approach considers both the psychological and physiological impact of trauma, integrating evidence informed trauma therapy with nervous system regulation, grounding, and practical coping strategies. Together, we work at a pace that feels manageable, helping you process what happened, understand your responses, rebuild a sense of safety, and gradually feel more connected to yourself and your life.

I believe that trauma can interrupt our ability to connect with others and can be a driver of disconnection. Therapy can help us to reestablish meaningful bonds and experience safety in connection. Book your free 20 minute meet & greet today to see if I might be the right fit for you.

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.
