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 * * *

Reegan Bushby
Registered Social Worker, MSW, RSW
Traumatic experiences can continue to affect how you feel, think, relate to others, and respond to situations long after the event has passed. I provide trauma-informed support to help clients understand these responses, develop emotional regulation and coping skills, process difficult experiences at a safe pace, and rebuild a sense of safety and control.

Heal(ing) Trauma Therapy
Counsellor/Therapist, Registered Psychotherapist, HBA, MPsy
From a trauma-informed perspective, trauma is what happens when we are unable to cope with the things that happen to us, at no fault of our own. We can understand trauma as being a lack of resources to deal with situations, not a lack of ability, character or willpower. The work we can do will include helping you better understand your trauma, developing healthier and more helpful ways of coping with it, and processing it so that you can be free of the ways that your past is showing up in your present.

Trauma can continue to affect you long after the events have ended, leaving you feeling anxious, emotionally overwhelmed, hypervigilant, or triggered by situations that seem difficult to explain. Whether your trauma stems from childhood experiences, emotional abuse, narcissistic abuse, or another painful event, together we'll work at a pace that feels safe to process your experiences, reduce the impact of triggers, and help you regain a sense of control. My goal is to help you heal with compassion, rebuild your sense of safety, and move forward with greater confidence and resilience.

True Health Counselling
Counsellor/Therapist, Tracey Nguyen, Holistic Advanced Nurse Psychotherapist RN, MN
I specialize in helping individuals heal from trauma and PTSD by addressing how past experiences shape present-day triggers. For those with PTSD from a single incident, we identify specific triggers and work to resolve their connection to the past, fostering calm and control in the present. For complex PTSD, stemming from prolonged or repeated abuse, I take a relational, layered approach, processing the deep fear, pain, and shame tied to ongoing trauma. With patience and compassion, we regulate emotions, heal core wounds, and shift power dynamics that linger from those experiences. My trauma-informed approach creates a safe space to navigate triggers and reclaim your sense of peace and strength.

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.
