When your body still reacts as if the past is happening now, it’s not weakness — it’s protection. Trauma lives in the nervous system, not just in memory. Our sessions move slowly and safely, prioritizing consent and regulation. Together we rebuild inner safety, restore self-trust, and help your system learn that the danger has passed.

Fiona Matalon
Counsellor/Therapist, MA, RCC
Trauma is not what happened to us but how our nervous system responded to it. With my clients I work through trauma from a holistic perspective that includes somatic, emotional and spiritual work. Processing our trauma in a safe, non judgemental space allows us to live more integrated and fulfilled lives.

Victoria Jade Karra
Counsellor/Therapist, MTC, CTP, CSTS
Trauma can impact how you relate to yourself, others, emotions, safety, and the world around you. I recognize the vulnerability and courage involved in turning toward painful experiences and the protective patterns that may have developed in response to them. Therapy can become a compassionate and grounded space to explore these experiences with greater safety, self-understanding, and support while moving toward healing, authenticity, and meaningful change.
As a Certified Clinical Trauma Professional and Shame-Informed Treatment Specialist, I integrate an understanding of the emotional, relational, and nervous system impacts of trauma while tailoring therapy to your unique experiences, strengths, needs, and pace.

Nicklas Ehrlich
Counsellor/Therapist, MSW, RCC (#0843), RSW (#11561), Psychotherapist, Counsellor, Life-Coach, Hypnotherapist, Advanced Neurofeedback Trainer
Trauma and PTSD is greatly helped when the central nervous system/brain is reset from "fight-flight-freeze-collapse". Trauma can live in the unconscious mind, nervous system/brain for years as the mind and the body do not know that the trauma is over. Neurofeedback and hypnosis disconnect trauma.

Adam Manz
Licensed Mental Health Counsellor, Registered Clinical Counsellor (RCC), MCP
Trauma can leave lasting imprints on the body and mind—showing up as anxiety, numbness, irritability, or a sense of being “stuck” in old patterns. In therapy, we’ll move at a pace that feels safe, helping you reconnect with a sense of stability and self-trust. My approach draws on nervous system regulation, trauma-informed care, and attachment awareness to support healing that’s both gentle and lasting—so you can begin to feel more grounded, present, and whole.

Sophia Kopelow
Counsellor/Therapist, MA, RCC
I define trauma as anything that overwhelms our nervous system's ability to cope. It's not only about the event or experience itself, but about how one perceives it. Those with a highly sensitive nervous system will likely be more impacted, and I'm passionate about empowering clients to feel more whole, integrated and accepting of themselves. My trauma- informed approach involves prioritizing safety and trust by allowing clients to have full autonomy and collaborate in the therapeutic process. I use EMDR therapy to help reprocess traumatic memories that might be keeping you stuck, and integrate a mixture of cognitive and somatic approaches to help you heal. I offer in-person, virtual or walk and talk therapy. I would love to hear from you—head to my website to book your free 20-minute consultation.

Barbara (Barchi) Fojkar
Counsellor/Therapist, Registered Clinical Counsellor, Clinical Hypnotherapist, CCC
Trauma can continue to shape how we feel, relate to others, and experience ourselves long after the original experiences have passed. I offer a compassionate, trauma-informed space to explore these patterns at a pace that feels manageable. Our work may include nervous-system awareness, mindfulness, parts-based and experiential approaches, and clinical hypnotherapy when appropriate, with the aim of helping you feel safer, more connected to yourself, and more able to move forward.

Charlie Young
Counsellor/Therapist, RCC #22791
Trauma counselling here goes at the pace your nervous system can tolerate — trauma's effects are what your system learned to do for protection, and those mechanisms often linger long after the threat has passed, leaving people unable to rest even when nothing is wrong, or unsafe in their own body. I work with both single-event trauma and the kind that accumulates over a childhood, a relationship, or years of discrimination, and the pacing is the same either way: stability first, then slowly stepping into what feels safe at your own pace. Trauma lives in the body as much as in memory, so somatic work — attention to breath, tension, and what your nervous system is doing in the room — is part of how I work, and I check in constantly about pace so you never have to touch anything you don't want to. I'm a queer and trans RCC providing virtual therapy across BC, so if you've tried trauma therapy that pushed too hard too fast, or want to do this work with someone who understands the queer and trans context it happened in, that's what I offer — and I'll use your name and pronouns from our first contact. Sessions are 50 minutes by secure video and for trauma work I recommend starting weekly or every other week; during the free 15-minute consult we'll talk about what brings you to counselling and how I can help.
