Aliya Amarshi
Registered Psychotherapist, PhD (Sociology)
Trauma lives in the body and often shapes our responses long after the event. I offer trauma-informed therapy grounded in somatic work, IFS, and gentle pacing—supporting you in feeling safer, more connected, and more in control of your healing journey.

Donna Wigmore Counselling Services
Counsellor/Therapist, CCC, CT
Trauma and PTSD are now understood to be much more common than previously thought. The new research, in particular, by Bessel van der Kolk, has said that trauma is “not the story of something that happened back then, but the current imprint of that pain, horror, and fear living inside [the individual].” These events leave us stuck in a state of helplessness and terror, and results in a change in how we perceive danger. So together we will work to process and release that trauma, emotionally and physically.

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.

Tehmina Ayana Meherali
Counsellor/Therapist, M.Ed, CCC, CMHP
I support individuals who are navigating the effects of trauma — whether recent or long past. Trauma can shape how we see ourselves, others, and the world, often showing up as anxiety, emotional overwhelm, numbness, or difficulty trusting.
My approach is gentle, trauma-informed, and paced according to your readiness. Together, we create a safe and supportive space to process experiences, strengthen coping skills, and rebuild a sense of safety, empowerment, and self-trust.
