Lorna Barnes, Oak Tree Counselling
Licensed Professional Counsellor, CT, CPC
Trauma is usually caused when our needs are not met or we experience a disruption in our lives which has made us feel unsafe or insecure. Looking at the root cause of our trauma helps clients to understand how they have responded to traumatic experiences in their lives. I work toward building safety, emotional regulation, boundaries, self-confidence, coping skills, forgiveness and supports.

Shannon MacGregor
Counsellor/Therapist, RTC, MTC, CLC
Past and recent painful life experiences such as adverse childhood experiences, domestic abuse,
intergenerational, racial trauma, accidents or any other distressing or disturbing events can cause psychological, emotional, spiritual, and physical trauma, often resulting in unfavorable behaviors and strategies, called coping mechanisms, to manage the emotional stress and pain. Unresolved trauma damages a person’s sense of safety, self-evaluation, as well as their ability to regulate emotions and navigate relationships with self and others. By concentrating on what’s happening in your body, you can get in touch with trauma-related energy and tension, and your natural survival instincts will take over, safely releasing pent-up energy through shaking, crying, and other forms of physical and emotional release.
