Shareen Birges
Registered Social Worker, BASS, GDYMH, MSW
I have an extensive background in trauma through my work with young people & adults around sexual abuse/assault, domestic violence & childhood trauma/neglect. My trauma informed practice gives me the basis for understanding & supporting people through trauma. My experience has helped me to understand that trauma is a very unique & individualized experience. For some people, trauma can appear small or unimportant (like a car accident) however to me, all trauma is experienced by the individual as traumatic for them, so whether it is perceived by others as small or unimportant it is important, & valid, for the person for whom the experience was traumatic. I have found that this understanding has been vital in my trauma work & has helped me to support people with all types of trauma. Building the therapeutic relationship, again, is important in this work to create a collaborative, safe & comfortable environment for my clients to share & heal.

Licensed Professional Counsellor, Graduate Diploma Trauma Informed Processwork Psychotherapy (Process Oriented Psychology), Diploma Counselling, Somatic Experiencing Cert II/III
Trauma and post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) (as well as C-PTSD) can profoundly impact an individual's mental and emotional well-being. Just as each traumatic experience or experiences are unique so are the ways in which we each respond and process them. There isn’t a ‘one size fits all’ approach when it comes to trauma therapy but with new research we do know that trauma is stored in the body. I am a trauma informed Processwork (Process Oriented) Psychotherapist as well as Somatic Experiencing informed. I provide a safe, supportive, non-judgmental space for you to gradually work through your traumatic experiences to regain a sense of control, and ultimately reclaim your life. Please read more about the therapy I provide for a deeper understanding of how I can help.

Dabaco Doldissen
Counsellor/Therapist, GradDip Gestalt Therapy
I am a trauma-informed psychotherapist that is skilled in helping a client stay within their window of tolerance when talking about experiences that activate their emotional body and nervous system. Effective therapy occurs in the middle zone of activation, not too comfortable but also not too upset. It's my job to help my clients to build capacity and regulation tools to stay in that middle zone so their experience can be processed in a healthy and empowering way.

Anne-Lynn Teoh

My primary focus is on attachment patterns, developmental and relational trauma rather than treating trauma as a single event. I also work with PTSD presentations within my scope. I am a formally train IFS Level 1, Certified Somatic Therapy Foundations Practitioner and have completed my Somatic IFS certificate. I use a trauma-informed, attachment and somatic approaches alongside IFS to help clients understand protective responses such as avoidance, hypervigilance, shutdown and disconnection. A 2022 pilot study indicated that 92% of participants no longer met PTSD criteria after IFS therapy (12 our of 13 participants).

Rakan Himadeh
Somatic Experiencing Practitioner, SEP, ISP Candidate
PTSD is fundamentally a nervous system injury; the body gets stuck in incomplete survival responses. SE helps the body gradually complete those responses, discharge stored survival energy, and return to regulation. This makes it especially suited for trauma resolution.

Michael Elwan
Registered Social Worker, PhD Candidate (Mental Health), MSW, GradCertMH, DipPsych, MBA
Trauma and PTSD affect the body, emotions, and relationships long after the original events have ended. I work with single-incident and complex trauma, including the trauma that comes from relationships that were not safe and from environments where survival required adaptation. The pacing is careful. We don't push past what your body and mind are ready for; we work alongside them. The aim is restored agency and steadier ground, with no expectation that the work will erase what has happened.
