Maor Bernshtein, MSW, RSW, Psychotherapist
Registered Social Worker, MSW, RSW, Psychotherapist
Maybe you have a persistent sense that something is 'wrong' with you, or you feel that your reactions don't match the situations. You feel things more strongly, more often than you'd like. Trauma can look different for different people. Sometimes, it's just feeling like the we're waiting for the other show to drop. I work with trauma, complex PTSD, attachment and relational wounds, using parts work, IFS-informed, somatic and relational approaches. Trauma work doesn't have to mean reliving everything. What it does mean is working with the parts of you that are still holding on, still protecting, still reacting, still waiting for it to be safe. We work with where it actually lives, not just the story around it. Whenever you're ready, book your free 20-minute consultation with me at pathwaytoself.ca.

Support for Trauma and PTSD
Trauma leaves imprints—not just in memory, but in the body, the nervous system, and the subconscious. I offer a safe, attuned space to explore those imprints with care, clarity, and compassion.
As a trauma-informed therapist, I understand how deeply trauma can affect relationships, emotional regulation, and daily functioning. My approach is gentle yet effective, combining Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), somatic awareness, mindfulness, and reflective process work to support healing at your own pace.
Areas of Focus Include:
• Complex trauma and early relational wounds
• Single-incident trauma and acute stress
• Military and first responder experiences
• Interpersonal violence and emotional abuse
• Anxiety, panic, and hypervigilance linked to trauma
This work is about restoring a sense of safety—internally and relationally. Together, we’ll explore what’s been held, what’s been silenced, and what’s ready to be released. I prioritize trust, respect, and emotional presence, creating a space where you can feel deeply heard and supported as you reconnect with your strength and resilience.

Rikki-Lee Epp
Therapist, Registered Psychotherapist, RP, BA, Dipl. Psych.
I support clients living with trauma and PTSD by creating a safe space to explore the emotional and relational impact of what they've been through. Through a psychodynamic lens, we gently uncover how past experiences may live on in the body, shape beliefs about safety and self-worth, and influence current relationships. Our work honors your pace and resilience, supporting integration, self-compassion, and a renewed sense of inner stability.
