Michelle Iulianella Counselling & Psychotherapy
Counsellor/Therapist, BEd, MBA, MA, RCC
Generational trauma is the transmission of traumatic experiences and their associated psychological and emotional effects from one generation to the next. This type of trauma can also be passed along through unexamined familial beliefs, sociocultural norms and narratives that describe traumatic events. People with family histories that include systemic oppression or abuse, war, genocide, or marginalization can experience this type of trauma. Generational trauma can manifest as anxiety, depression, anger, guilt, shame, and a sense of disconnectedness or isolation. It can also impact family dynamics and relationships, including the ways in which individuals relate to their families of origin, their partners and their own children. Michelle believes that recognizing and processing generational trauma in therapy is an integral step towards putting an end to the legacy of traumatic experience and promoting healing within individuals and their families.

Sagewood Counselling & Consultancy
Registered Social Worker, BSW, MSW, RSW
Many, if not most of us have experienced trauma at some point in our lives. Traumas may be very significant events such as sexual abuse, natural disasters, car accidents, loss of a loved one etc. Or traumas can be what we might consider less signifiant events in our lives such as being embarrassed or humiliated or emotional abuse from another person. Although we usually try to do our best to overcome the effects of these experiences on our own, sometimes unresolved trauma can lead to greater difficulties and create parts of ourselves that get 'stuck' leaving us unable to move past the memories and related physiological sensations. Perhaps you are anxious and fearful of certain people, places or situations, or maybe you just always feel 'on edge', and unable to truly relax and feel safe. Maybe you have intrusive thoughts or images that just won't stop. Some people, especially those with PTSD may have flashbacks and nightmares stemming from the traumatic memories. Others often experience muscle tension or chronic pain that may also be related to the trauma(s) experienced, but they have not yet been able to fully process and resolve these experiences. If any of these stress response symptoms sound familiar to you, or if you have experienced trauma in your life and want to be supported as you work through those difficult memories and the places you may find yourself 'stuck', I will do my best to help you find some relief so you can enjoy an improved quality of life.

Candice Seligman
Counsellor/Therapist, MACP, DVATI, CCC
Trauma can show up as persistent anxiety, emotional overwhelm, feeling shutdown, difficulty trusting yourself or others, numbness, hypervigilance, or feeling stuck in patterns that seem rooted in the past. I focus on working with CPTSD, complex and developmental trauma, including childhood and relational trauma, rather than acute single-incident trauma such as recent accidents or medical emergencies. I work somatically, trauma-informed, and with the nervous system, inner child, and energy field in mind to help release the deeper roots of trauma responses. My focus is compassionate, root-cause healing that supports safety in your body, integration of painful experiences, and movement toward greater freedom and wholeness.

Past experiences can continue to shape how you feel, react, and relate—often without you realizing it. You might notice patterns, emotional triggers, or a sense of being stuck.
