Trauma and PTSD
Gui Mansilla
Registered Psychotherapist, Lawyer (Arg) M.Div (USA) Reg. Psychotherapist (CA) Coach (Ca)
Embark on an extraordinary journey of courageous healing, transforming the echoes of traumatic experiences into the seeds of profound growth and empowerment. Trauma, with its overwhelming and paralyzing presence, holds within it an unexpected doorway to personal development when met with wisdom and the proper support. Unfortunately, many find themselves grappling with the disorienting and immobilizing effects of Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) symptoms.
With the honour of guiding thousands through the intricate process of understanding and methodically healing trauma, I cultivate a therapeutic environment that is more than just safe—it's infused with positivity, warmth, and, when appropriate, a touch of fun. While the path to healing trauma may seem daunting, the journey carries immense benefits for those who bravely confront it with wisdom and robust support systems.
Personally, navigating a significant amount of childhood trauma has equipped me with a profound understanding, coupled with over two decades of professional experience, totalling more than 17 thousand hours of sitting with clients in my psychotherapy practice. Today, I draw from this rich tapestry of personal and professional wisdom to extend hope and support to those on their unique path toward a future marked by more significant health and happiness.
Within you lies transformative potential, akin to emerging "superpowers," waiting to be harnessed as you navigate the intricate healing process. If you're ready to face this challenge with courage and embrace the support you deserve, I wholeheartedly invite you to a consultation. Together, let's chart a course toward a future defined by resilience, growth, and the profound realization of your full potential.

Trauma and PTSD
Marjan Emami
Counsellor/Therapist, MD, RTC #3608, MPCC-Provisional #4797, ACTA #3122
Trauma often shows up in many areas of life. While PTSD is a clinical diagnosis, trauma is the underlying cause. Healing involves approaching your pain with compassionate curiosity, reconnecting with the body, and challenging the false beliefs formed during the traumatic experience. Because we are hurt in relationships, much of the healing happens through safe, therapeutic connection, and together we will develop new ways of relating, coping, and moving forward.

Trauma and PTSD
Arzu Ferguson
Psychologist, M.Sc., RP, C. Psych.
I provide therapy for individuals experiencing post-traumatic stress (PTSD), including symptoms such as intrusive memories, heightened anxiety, emotional reactivity, and difficulty feeling safe or present. These experiences may be linked to past trauma, including childhood experiences, accidents, or significant life events.
In therapy, we work at a pace that feels safe and manageable, focusing on understanding how trauma continues to impact your thoughts, emotions, and body. Using evidence-based, trauma-informed approaches, we aim to reduce distress, improve emotional regulation, and help you feel more grounded, stable, and in control in your daily life.

Trauma and PTSD
Samantha Duarte Therapy
Registered Psychotherapist, MACP, RP
Trauma lives in your body. You might experience it as hypervigilance, nightmares, panic, or numbness- ways your nervous system is trying to protect you from something that happened. Trauma doesn't always follow logic. It doesn't always fade with time alone.
I work with adults navigating trauma and PTSD using a trauma-informed, somatic approach. This means we don't just talk about what happened- we work with your nervous system to help it feel safe again. We understand that healing isn't linear, and we move at your pace.
Somatic therapy recognizes that trauma is stored in your body. By working with these physical sensations alongside your thoughts and emotions, we create real, lasting change. Your nervous system is doing exactly what it was designed to do. We just need to help it understand that you're safe now.
Whether your trauma is recent or from years ago, whether you remember it clearly or it feels fragmented, here's space for you here. Reach out to see if we are a good fit! I offer a free 15-minute consult

Satvinder Khurme
Registered Social Worker, MSW, RSW
One may experience trauma in a situation which is shocking, deeply distressing or disturbing for him, in which he feels helpless and is unable to cope-up. PTSD is a stage when a person after such traumatic experience, feels sad, scared, disconnected, lonely, anxious for a longer period of time.

Trauma and PTSD
Dr. Angel Enrique Pacheco, Ph.D., C.Psych.
Psychologist, Registered Clinical Psychologist
PTSD means that when faced with certain environmental stimuli similar to those present when you were traumatized, you develop the same or similar-level of physiological and emotional responses to the present circumstances even in the absence of additional trauma. This requires specialized training in the assessment and treatment of the condition for you to feel better.

Trauma and PTSD
Michael Sa'd - Toronto Talk Therapy
Registered Social Worker, RSW, MSW, CFST, MBA
Experiencing trauma can leave lasting emotional and psychological effects, often leading to challenges such as flashbacks, hypervigilance, and feelings of disconnection. My approach to trauma and PTSD focuses on creating a safe, supportive environment where healing can begin. Using evidence-based methods such as Trauma-Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (TF-CBT), Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), and mindfulness practices, I help clients process their experiences, reduce symptoms, and regain a sense of safety and control. Together, we work to rebuild resilience, foster self-compassion, and empower you to move forward with strength and hope.

Trauma and PTSD
Ariana N. Zeppieri-Makhan
Registered Psychotherapist, MA, RP
"If you've met one trauma survivor, you've met exactly one trauma survivor." Though your symptoms may be similar to others', your trauma is not. This work is delicate, and the process may be long, but I will sit patiently by you while you sort it out, help make sense of it, and bring you back to the here-and-now if you get lost in the then. My work in this area began as a student counsellor in a community mental health centre, under the expert guidance of three trauma-informed supervisors. Since then, I've worked extensively with survivors of complex trauma, accompanying them through their experiences while grounding them in the present and providing strategies for the future.
