PTSD is more common and complex than many realize. Often, it's mistakenly limited to military veterans, survivors of natural disasters, or victims of violence. However, PTSD can affect anyone, regardless of socioeconomic status, life experiences, age, or gender. It impacts well-being in four key ways: biologically, psychologically, socially, and spiritually.
Individuals are at higher risk if they have experienced direct trauma exposure, witnessed trauma, experienced trauma as a child, or did not receive adequate help.
If you or someone you know is struggling, I am a trained trauma therapist ready to help you recover and heal so you don't have to continue suffering.

Julie Taylor Counselling
Counsellor/Therapist, MTC, RCS
Trauma immediately causes a change in our physiology and readies our body to fight, flee or freeze. Trauma embeds itself in our brains and bodies, perhaps partly because of the human will to survive. We have to both understand it and gently take away its power. Trauma is unique: what is traumatic for one person may not be traumatic to another. Trauma causes a miss-match between what we see and reality, causing us to over-react and plunge our bodies into a state of panic: adrenalin flowing and a state of readiness to fight, flee or freeze. Later, our bodies may be plunged into that same hypervigilance for no real reason: that is PTSD. Often we mask how we feel and act how we 'know we should', widening the gap between how we feel inside and what we do. If we don't recognize trauma straight off, and process and heal it, the result of that trauma builds inside us with every new traumatic event, also leading to PTSD. If you have experienced trauma - something that you personally have found traumatic - come explore it. Don't let it take over your life?
