Larysa Strizhevsky
Registered Psychotherapist, MA, RP
Most people will experience trauma in their lifetime, whether it’s a car accident, abuse or neglect, the sudden death of a loved one, our exposure to the violence or war.
While many people may experience strong symptoms in the early days following trauma and will improve over time, others may discover effects of lasting trauma, which can cause a person to live with deep emotional pain, fear, helplessness, confusion, and develop post-traumatic stress (PTSD) far after the event has passed.
The support, guidance, and assistance of a therapist is fundamental to healing from trauma.

Lisa Mollica, RP Keeping Peace Counselling
Counsellor/Therapist, RP
The experience of a traumatic event is unique for everyone, that's why "trauma therapy" shouldn't be one size fits all.
Whether you want to address the effects of the trauma rather than speaking about the trauma specifically OR if you feel drawn to re-examine the event and process its impact - all therapy should be trauma-informed and trauma-sensitive.

Life in Harmony Counselling Services
Counsellor/Therapist
Therapy stands out as one of the most effective approaches for developing long-term strategies to effectively manage the symptoms of PTSD. Diagnosing PTSD can be challenging, as it is often concealed by other symptoms, and individuals may experience periods of being asymptomatic.
Underlying distress in conditions like depression and substance abuse is frequently rooted in a traumatic experience. By working with a therapist in a secure environment, you can address and process your trauma. This therapeutic journey empowers you to regain control over your thoughts and emotions, liberating you from the unconscious grip of trauma. Trauma therapy plays a crucial role in restoring a sense of wholeness and well-being after enduring a traumatic event.
