ThriveWell Counselling
Registered Social Worker, MSW, RSW / RP
For many of us, overwhelming experiences from the past, are a part of our legacy and history. Even if many years have gone by, the past may seem ever-present. Often we may recognize without fully understanding how the past continues to impact us today. You might experience anxiety, fear, depression, triggers, and other symptoms, that are hard to fully understand and even harder to lessen. You may even recognize these as signs and symptoms of trauma or PTSD. But yet, these symptoms may persist and even worsen over time.
At ThriveWell Counselling, we create a safe space to explore the impacts trauma has had emotional, psychological, and physically within your life. Through developing an empathic and compassionate understanding of your experiences and the ways you learned to cope with these, we can support you in developing a deeper connection to yourself within. ThriveWell uses a holistic approach to treating trauma and PTSD symptoms by integrating a number of trauma-focused therapeutic approaches. Through working with EMDR, Ego-State Therapy, Internal Family Systems, Somatic Experiencing and other therapeutic modalities, we will work with you to process, integrate and move forward from hurtful experiences, in a way that strengthens resilience and facilitates lasting healing, so that you can move from surviving to thriving.

Sierra Gaudreault
Registered Psychotherapist, RP
Whether you have a diagnosis of PTSD or not, it is hard to be present or move forward when we never feel safe. I use Cognitive Processing Therapy (CPT) to help you understand how trauma is showing up in your life and renegotiate your relationship with it. I also integrate various techniques to help you calm your nervous system and navigate dissociation.

Samuele Bariani
Registered Psychotherapist, MDiv, RP
Trauma is not simply what happened to us but mainly how we internally coped to overwhelming moments. In the long term, the strategies that kept us alive can become fixed patterns that no longer serve us to flourish and fully live the present. Together in therapy, we can create a safe and collaborative space in which you can no longer feel alone in dealing with the symptoms of trauma. We will slowly focus on healthy coping strategies to regulate your emotions and your physical reactions so that when you feel overwhelmed again you will be able to regain control and soothe yourself. As therapy unfolds, you will decide what details of your traumatic experience you feel ready to share while I will support you with the use of specific modalities such as Narrative Therapy and Internal Family Systems Therapy (IFS) in order to access, process and rewrite the story of your trauma.

Hannah Bickle | Self, Relationships, Emotions
Registered Psychotherapist, RP (Q)
The effects of trauma can show up in many ways, including anxiety, emotional overwhelm, difficulty trusting others, or feeling disconnected from yourself. Often, these responses developed as ways of coping with experiences that felt too much, too fast, or too painful.
In therapy, we can move at a pace that feels right for you. Some sessions may focus on building a foundation of safety, trust, and emotional regulation, while others may involve deeper processing through approaches such as EMDR or parts work. Together, we can work toward helping you better understand yourself, reconnect with your emotions, and cultivate a greater sense of safety and self-trust.

Tisha Misquita Psychotherapy
Registered Psychotherapist, Registered Psychotherapist (Qualifying)
Do past experiences still feel present in your body or nervous system?
Trauma can come from a single event or from ongoing experiences of not feeling safe, seen, or supported. You might notice hypervigilance, emotional shutdown, intrusive memories, overwhelm, or difficulty trusting others.
These responses can show up long after the original experiences have passed, leaving you feeling disconnected from your body or stuck in survival mode.
Trauma-informed therapy moves at a careful, respectful pace. The focus is on building safety and understanding, helping your system feel more supported and less defined by what you’ve been through.

Franklynn Bartol
Pre-Licensed Professional, RP (Qualifying), MSc, MA
As a relational therapist, my speciality is relational trauma (harms we've experienced or enacted within relationships) and complex trauma (trauma that is or was ongoing, such as childhood abuse or neglect). I'm also deeply attentive to forms of structural and intergenerational trauma, such as the traumatic effects of colonialism, racism, homophobia, transphobia, ableism, war, displacement, and other oppressions.
I'm very client-led, especially when it comes to addressing traumatic experience. I have great respect for the trust-building processes that may need to precede any disclosures of trauma. I also believe healing can happen in a variety of ways—there's many valid ways to address the effects of trauma. What will be important is that we co-create what works for you and remain attentive to how you're experiencing the therapy process.
Relational therapy believes that healing happens through relationships, including the therapeutic relationship. The lack of support, witnessing, validation, accountability, or reparations we experience in the wake of harm are often traumas in and of themselves. Therapy can be a place to finally experience some of this—to have someone be with you in your grief, horror, or rage, and to reclaim the parts of yourself that were lost.

Lolita Abramyan
Registered Psychotherapist, Registered Psychotherapist, RP
Trauma can impact every part of ourselves; the physical, emotional, mental, and spiritual. Trauma, no matter how big or small, makes us feel that we do not have control over our lives and are vulnerable to threat. Trauma often stays in the body and the subconscious mind, until we are ready to address it. With a focus on the nervous system and its role in storing trauma, I provide my clients with a safe, nurturing environment in which they can express and explore their trauma from the past or present. Using practical tools based in CBT, Mindfulness, and Somatic-informed approaches, I help my clients process the trauma in a gradual way. Trauma does not have to control your life. My goal is to collaborate with my clients to help them overcome it and move forward.
