Teo Counselling Services
Registered Psychotherapist, MACP, CCC, RP (Qualifying)
As a therapist with extensive experience working with vulnerable populations, including refugees, I understand the lasting effects of trauma on mental health. My trauma-focused approach combines evidence-based techniques like Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) to help clients process their experiences and reclaim their lives. With empathy and cultural sensitivity, I create a safe, non-judgmental space where clients can heal and rebuild resilience.

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.

Trauma affects more than just your memories. It can live in the body, shape your emotions, and influence the way you move through the world. Whether your trauma is the result of a single event or a series of experiences over time, healing is possible. We offer trauma therapy that honours your story, your pace, and your path to recovery. We understand that trauma looks and feels different for everyone. It might show up as anxiety, fear, numbness, emotional overwhelm, or even physical pain. You may feel stuck in patterns you can’t explain. Whatever you’re carrying, our experienced therapists are here to help you feel safe, supported, and empowered to begin healing on your own terms.
