Hardie Counselling & BrainWorX, Inc
Registered Psychotherapist, BFA, B.Ed, MA, CPC, CCPCPR, CCAC, ICADC, CSAT, CCTP, CCTACP
PTSD is more common and complex than many realize. Often, it's mistakenly limited to military veterans, survivors of natural disasters, or victims of violence. However, PTSD can affect anyone, regardless of socioeconomic status, life experiences, age, or gender. It impacts well-being in four key ways: biologically, psychologically, socially, and spiritually.
Individuals are at higher risk if they have experienced direct trauma exposure, witnessed trauma, experienced trauma as a child, or did not receive adequate help.
If you or someone you know is struggling, I am a trained trauma therapist ready to help you recover and heal so you don't have to continue suffering.

Trauma can affect the way you experience yourself, your relationships, and the world around you. Whether your experiences stem from childhood trauma, difficult relationships, a single overwhelming event, or ongoing adversity, you may find yourself feeling stuck in patterns of anxiety, emotional overwhelm, hypervigilance, or disconnection. I offer a compassionate space to explore the impact of these experiences and the ways they continue to shape your life. Together, we'll work to process trauma, build resilience, and create a greater sense of safety, connection, and well-being.

Rebecca Bonham
Licensed Professional Counsellor, Canadian Certified Counsellor, MPS, MTS
As you no doubt already know intimately, trauma affects every aspect of our being and functioning. Our brains shut down, our bodies react, our emotions take on a life of their own - or disappear altogether. Our work will start with grounding you and your body in safety, and building awareness and appreciation for the ways our bodies hold trauma for us. Once we have enough safety in our bodies, we can begin offering curiosity to the parts of us that have learned to protect us with varying coping and survival skills. We'll acknowledge and honour the ways our parts knew how to take care of us, even as we invite them into a new relationship within us, where they can be unburdened and we can reconnect with the healing power of our own inner resources: calm, curiosity, compassion, connectedness, creativity, courage, clarify, and confidence. I'll support you in connecting with your wounded parts that long to be healed as only you can do. You will learn to connect with your pain and vulnerability in new ways that brings lasting healing and integration. This is tender work, and we'll take it as slowly as your system needs it to go. Your safety and choice are of utmost importance in this work.
