Many of us will experience some form of trauma in our life. Before we can work through the trauma, we need to regulate our nervous system, by practicing breathing or mindfulness, for example.

Trauma is an event or experience that is deeply distressing or upsetting, and can have long-lasting effects on an individual's mental and emotional well-being. PTSD, or Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder, is a mental health condition that can develop after exposure to a traumatic event, such as a natural disaster, combat, sexual assault, or a car accident.
PTSD can cause a range of symptoms, including intrusive thoughts and memories of the traumatic event, avoidance of reminders of the trauma, and negative changes in mood and cognition. These symptoms can interfere with daily life and relationships, and may lead to other mental health issues such as depression and anxiety.
Effective treatments for PTSD include psychotherapy, specifically Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), and medication. Trauma-focused therapy can help individuals process their traumatic experiences, develop coping skills, and reduce symptoms of PTSD. If you or a loved one is struggling with the effects of trauma or PTSD, it is important to seek help from a licensed mental health professional to receive a proper diagnosis and develop a comprehensive treatment plan.

Registered Psychotherapist, MA, RP
Experiences with trauma can be a debilitating mental health concern that impacts our well-being, relationships and daily living. These moments can be tough to navigate without someone to trust and confide in for support. The first step of seeking help can feel intimidating and overwhelming. I would love to make the process as comfortable as possible for you.

Jane Wiltsie
Registered Social Worker, MSW, RSW, CYW
Coming to therapy to process trauma can be intimidating. I provide a safe space and you choose how much you talk about the past. We can start by talking about how your past is effecting your present. Processing trauma often gives more insight into difficulty with trust and self esteem.

Registered Psychotherapist, M.A., M.Sc., RP
Trauma and PTSD can occur when unexpected significant life events occur. Behaviours exhibited by those suffering from trauma can become affected for some time after an event has occurred. It is important to note changes in thoughts and behaviours. Therapeutic interventions can help identify triggering thoughts and behaviours, how they affect emotional well being and provide positive coping to help alleviate some of these symptoms.
