New Moon Psychotherapy
Registered Psychotherapist, MA, MACP, MSW, RSW, RP, RP(Q)
What if I said that what happened was not your fault, that people can be trusted, and that there's nothing wrong with you?
What if I told you that you can feel your emotions without becoming overwhelmed, that you can let go of feeling on edge and hypervigilant?
What if you knew that the only reason you are suspicious, that decisions are hard to make, and that you find it hard to connect with and trust others is because your trauma shook your sense of self, the people around you, and the word more generally?
What if I said that you don't have to live the rest of your life haunted by memories and flashbacks of the worst days of your life? That you don't have to keep distracting yourself? That you're not "too broken or beyond fixing" and that there IS hope?
Trauma and PTSD change the way we think, feel, and behave in many ways but the good news is that these are treatable conditions. There are evidence-based approaches (well research strategies) that can help you rise from your experience(s), release the past into the past, and claim the life you've always wanted.
At New Moon Psychotherapy Trauma is our specialty. We are a team of registered psychotherapists and social workers who specialize in treating post-traumatic stress and related difficulties such as CPTSD, PTSD, addiction/substance Use, self-injury and suicide ideation, emotion dysregulation, perfectionism, anxiety and depression. We work extensively with survivors of sexual violence and criminal victimization (robbery, assault, car jacking, shootings, etc.) as well as those who have experienced emotional and physical abuse, natural disasters, bullying, war and near death experiences.
We are committed to using evidence-based approaches - the ones that have been test and tried for the very difficulties that you're experiencing including Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), Cognitive Processing Therapy (CPT), Prolonged Exposure (PE), Dialectical Behaviour Therapy for PTSD (DBT-PTSD), Sensimotor Psychotherapy, Somatic Psychotherapy. We offer trauma focused individual, couples, family, and group therapy. We love what we do and stay current through ongoing training and consultation.
Interested in finding relief from trauma symptoms but don't think you can commit to long-term therapy? Our 4-week group focused on Finding Calm in the Body can teach you to calm the nervous system which would bring down intense emotions, hypervigilance, and help you improve sleep and manage flashbacks and body memories. It's an affordable alternative to individual therapy.
Reach out today for a complimentary 15-minute consultation. We will connect you with a clinician from our team of trained and passionate registered psychotherapists and social workers so that you can discuss your needs and how we might be able to help.
* * * If you decide not to go with our clinic, please ensure that your therapist is trained in EVIDENCE-BASED Psychotherapies for trauma - this will be the difference between months and years of therapy * * *

Rebecca Goldstein, TuneinTherapy, ADHD | Trauma | Autism
Registered Social Worker, RSW, MSW, MTA, BMT, FAMI
Trauma is not always just about what happened to you — it is also about what your mind, body, and nervous system had to do to survive.
Trauma and PTSD can affect emotional regulation, relationships, trust, identity, chronic stress, chronic pain, self-worth, and the exhausting feeling of being stuck in survival mode even when you are trying hard to move forward.
My approach is trauma-informed, compassionate, and grounded in both professional and lived understanding. With experience in acute mental health, hospital settings, music therapy, service in the Canadian Armed Forces, and work across grief, neurodivergence, and relational healing, I recognize that trauma impacts people in deeply personal and often complex ways.
I integrate practical, creative, and evidence-informed approaches including trauma-focused therapy, parts work (IFS-informed), EMDR-informed strategies, nervous system support, and arts-based modalities when helpful — because healing is not one-size-fits-all.
Together, we work on understanding survival patterns, reducing shame, processing trauma in ways that feel safe and realistic, rebuilding self-trust, and creating meaningful change so life can become more than just surviving.

Vanessa Fingland
Counsellor/Therapist, CCPCPR.cand, RPC-C
If you have experienced childhood trauma and are ready to work through it, I can help. You may be noticing triggers in adulthood that stem from the past, it may even be affecting your current relationships. You may be experiencing emotional flashbacks, or anxiety, a constant hypervigilance or intense anger that doesn't seem to match the situation in the moment. These are symptoms of trauma. I know it feels scary to face the past but I can help you move through it slowly and safely. I am a sensitive person too, so I can help you gently move forward in a way that feels safe for you. Contact me for a free 15 minute consultation today to see if we are a good fit.

Angela Fawcett
Counsellor/Therapist, BSW, MSW, RSW
Trauma can come from many different experiences and it can affect people in many different ways. You might notice feeling on edge, easily startled, emotionally overwhelmed, numb, or disconnected. Some people experience flashbacks, nightmares, or strong reactions that feel hard to understand or control. Even when the event is in the past, the impact can still feel very present.
I help people make sense of how past experiences are showing up in the present and how they are affecting thoughts, emotions, body responses, and relationships. We work at a pace that feels safe, helping you understand the protective responses that developed over time and how they may be getting triggered now.
We also focus on practical ways to feel more grounded and present, including learning tools to calm the nervous system, reduce overwhelm, and build a greater sense of safety in your day to day life. Alongside this, we gently work with the parts of you that carry fear, shame, anger, or pain, so they do not have to carry it alone.
Healing does not mean forgetting what happened. It means gradually feeling more present, more in control of your responses, and more able to live without the past feeling like it is happening all over again.

Mariya Garnet
Therapist, Registered Psychotherapist ( Qualifying)
work with complex trauma through the lens of NARM, the NeuroAffective Relational Model. NARM understands trauma not as a single event but as the way early relational environments shaped your relationship to yourself, your needs, your boundaries, and your capacity for connection. We work with what is alive in you right now, the patterns your nervous system is still running, rather than asking you to retell or relive the past. This is present-focused, body-informed, and relational at its core.

James "Jamie" Myslik
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, MSW, RSW
After many years of providing trauma therapy, and many years of training, I work with folks to identify how their histories of trauma show up in the present, cognitively, behaviourally, emotionally, and more. We work to build a sense of safety and stability in the present, and then to address all those ways that trauma expresses itself today so folks can begin putting away the pieces they don't need to carry, and build a future that works for who they are now.
