Ferzana Jamani
Counsellor/Therapist, BA, RTC
Living with the effects of trauma can make life feel overwhelming and unpredictable. I provide a safe, nonjudgmental space where healing can happen at your own pace. With trauma-informed, evidence-based care, I support you in working through difficult memories, rebuilding a sense of safety and trust, and reconnecting with your inner strength and resilience so you can move forward with greater hope and confidence.

Heron Payne Counselling
Counsellor/Therapist, Registered Therapeutic Counsellor, RTC
Complex and relational trauma can develop when difficult experiences happen repeatedly, especially within relationships where safety, trust, or care were inconsistent. You may notice patterns such as hypervigilance, emotional shutdown, people-pleasing, difficulty trusting others, intense reactions to conflict, or a sense that you lose yourself in relationships. I take a trauma-informed, non-pathologizing approach that understands these responses as adaptations rather than flaws. Through mindfulness, somatic awareness, and parts-oriented work, we can gently explore how past experiences continue to shape your nervous system, relationships, and sense of self, while building greater safety, choice, and connection in the present.

Sanofer Ansari
Licensed Mental Health Counsellor, MACP
Approach: Trauma-informed therapy, and somatic approaches, where appropriately trained and indicated.
I prioritize stabilization and emotional safety before trauma processing. Therapy may include grounding, nervous-system regulation, understanding protective responses, and gradually processing traumatic memories when the client is ready. The pace is determined collaboratively rather than forcing disclosure or processing.

Tina Presta
Counsellor/Therapist, CPCA MPCC- Provisional, CCPCPR.Cand
Trauma-Informed Clinical CounsellorIf traditional talk therapy has left you feeling stuck or looping through the same old patterns, your nervous system might be holding onto stress that words alone can't reach. As an MPCC-Provisional counsellor practicing under qualified clinical supervision, I offer a mindful, trauma-informed approach to therapy that focuses on nervous system regulation, CBT, and deep mind-body awareness. I specialize in helping adults navigate life transitions, anxiety, burnout, and the physical weight of long-standing trauma.Rather than relying solely on traditional talk therapy, my practice integrates Brainspotting (BSP) and somatic resources. Brainspotting is a gentle, deeply effective "bottom-up" modality based on the principle that “where you look affects how you feel.” By using your visual field, we can locate, process, and release deep-seated stress exactly where it lives in the brain and body. I provide a compassionate, collaborative space designed to help your nervous system safely untangle trauma and return to balance—all in manageable, bite-sized pieces and at your own pace.
