Registered Psychotherapist, MSc, CCC, RMFT, RSW, RP
All of us go through the winding footpaths of life and at one point in time experience moments that create long lasting impacts and changes in ourselves, our environment, and in the trajectory of our lives. Sometimes those experience can be positive, and sometimes they are negative. These negative experiences are we we define as traumatic events. Emotional Abuse is absolutely considered traumatic. Our therapists can help you identify the roots of your struggles and create a custom treatment plan to overcome them. Head over to our website to learn more!
The experience of trauma and traumatic events can be painful and excruciating. Sometimes these experiences leave us at more than just at a loss, but can continue to cause us pain and fear. These experiences can alter the way your mind works. Creating physical and emotional responses to triggers that remind you of your trauma. Even when you are unaware of these triggers, you can be left feeling overactive and hyper-vigilant to certain moments and interactions. The post traumatic consequences (often known as Post Traumatic Stress Disorder or PTSD) of these triggers is that you can feel like you are on constant alert to prevent future danger and pain; even when there is none to be presently found. If left untreated it can lead to one feeling loss and overwhelmed and increase rates of risky or dangerous behaviours (i.e. increased aggression and violence, increased substance use, increased physical and mental distress).
Our goal is help you heal. We offer a safe space and environment to begin the process of talking about your pain as a means to start processing what had happened to you. Talking about trauma doesn't always mean retelling your story. We work with each individual uniquely in order to find the path of healing that is more effective for them. We utilize a variety of techniques including a highly effective form of trauma therapy called EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) to help folks through this process in order to help you rediscover hope and empowerment. Understanding our past gives us an ability to take control what we want our future to look like. We believe that all people deserve to live a life free from fear and pain, all of us deserve a little help along the way.

Shasha Weir
Counsellor/Therapist, RSSW
Emotional abuse is a type of trauma that can have long-lasting effects on an individual's mental and emotional well-being. It involves consistent patterns of behavior from a person who seeks to control, manipulate, or demean their partner or loved one. Emotional abuse can take many forms, such as constant criticism, name-calling, belittling, withholding affection or attention, and even gaslighting.
It is essential to create a safe and supportive environment for individuals who have experienced emotional abuse, to help them process their trauma and develop healthy coping strategies. I strive to provide a space to explore the impact of emotional abuse on your self-esteem, trust, and relationships, and work toward healing and recovery. Remember, seeking help is a sign of strength, and you do not have to face emotional abuse alone.

Emma Heutschi
Registered Psychotherapist, M.Ed. Counselling Psychology, Registered Psychotherapist
Emotional abuse is the most hidden but widespread form of abuse, and is just as damaging as physical or sexual abuse. As your therapist, I can help you to recognize and understand the abusers in your life and their impact on your wellbeing. We will work to heal the damage of abuse and prevent future abuse by building skills for self-esteem and self-compassion. If you have experienced any form of abuse, I will encourage you to feel your anger and to release this anger in a constructive way. Anger empowers us and helps us to put the responsibility for the abuse where it belongs, instead of on ourselves.

Are you experiencing panic attacks, anxiety, depression or feelings of shame, fear or anger? Perhaps your sleep is disrupted, or you feel disconnected from your body at times.

We will work with you – at your own pace - to make new meaning from past experiences, while teaching you strategies to stay grounded and feel safer in your mind and body. We use trauma-informed approaches to help you feel less overwhelmed, and create safety in the present.
