Amy Moroz
Psychologist, M.Ed.C.Psych. Clinical & Counselling Psychologist
help people under chronic stress—especially those with trauma histories—learn to pause, regroup, and respond more intentionally. Whether you're feeling overwhelmed by work, caregiving, or emotional patterns that won’t let up, I bring a grounding presence and use a combination of mindfulness, Emotion-Focused Therapy, and Cognitive Processing Therapy (CPT). My approach supports you in building nervous system resilience, challenging stuck beliefs, and moving from survival mode into a calmer, more values-based way of living.
Please note, I support WSIB clients, including first responders and healthcare professionals, who are navigating occupational trauma, burnout, and return-to-work stress. Using a tailored mix of Emotion-Focused Therapy, mindfulness, and Cognitive Processing Therapy (CPT), I help clients process what they've been through, regulate their nervous systems, and move forward with clarity and strength. My approach honours your lived experience while building practical tools for sustainable recovery.

Registered Psychotherapist, RP, CH CHyp
Trauma changes us. Hypervigilence, increased anxiety, substance use, avoiding triggers and situations. This becomes the unconscious way we cope. You are doing the best you can. Let's talk about how mindfulness and self compassion can support healing.

Collaborative Care Therapy
Registered Psychotherapist, Registered Psychotherapist
Trauma can profoundly impact life, often in ways that are deeply embedded and not immediately apparent. At Collaborative Care Therapy, we address trauma using an evidence-based, phased approach that is integrative, relational, and trauma-informed, recognizing the unique journey each individual faces in their healing.
Our therapy sessions are structured to navigate through the stages of trauma recovery carefully. We begin with establishing safety and stability, ensuring that you feel secure and grounded before delving deeper. This phase is crucial in building a trusting therapeutic relationship and providing you with tools for emotional regulation and coping.
In the next phase, we gently and respectfully approach the process of remembering and mourning. This involves exploring the trauma narrative, validating experiences, and working through the memories and emotions associated with the traumatic events.
The final phase focuses on reconnection and integration. Here, the goal is to help you integrate the traumatic experiences into your life story without them dominating your present or future. We work on building resilience, enhancing self-esteem, and fostering a sense of empowerment. This phase is about moving beyond trauma, embracing growth, and looking towards the future with hope and confidence.
Throughout this phased approach, we ensure that each step is taken with care, always respecting your pace and readiness. Our virtual therapy sessions provide a convenient and comfortable space for this important work, ensuring that you have consistent support wherever you are.
Begin your path to healing with Collaborative Care Therapy, where we are committed to guiding you through the complexities of trauma towards a life of greater peace and fulfillment.

Shane Smyth
Registered Psychotherapist, MA, RP, OACCPP
Being stuck with memories and emotions from traumatic events can really hold people back from engaging in a rich and meaningful life. Trauma comes in many forms and is any thing that negatively impacts on someones sense of well being. I am trained in many forms of therapy that can be used to reduce the impact of trauma and PTSD and have worked with first responders, veterans, people from violent families, people who were bullied and many other forms of trauma.

Laird Counselling Services
Registered Psychotherapist, MA, RP
Trauma is a normal reaction to adverse life events. If you are suffering with feelings of anxiety or dread, low energy, or low mood, you may be dealing with the after-effects of trauma. Trauma is often accompanied by nightmares or flashbacks. Any of these symptoms are hard to deal with and can cause additional problems like poor sleep, poor memory and focus, and difficulty making decisions. Even everyday tasks can feel like a major undertaking when you are struggling with these symptoms. If your life feels harder than it should, please reach out to us for a free consultation to talk about treatments and strategies to address these issues. We are here to discuss your unique situation and find a plan personalized for you and your needs.

Trauma can leave deep imprints on both the body and mind, shaping how you see yourself and the world around you. You may find yourself reliving painful memories, feeling on edge, or struggling to trust safety again. Through EMDR and other trauma-informed approaches, we’ll work to gently process what’s been overwhelming so that you can begin to feel grounded, connected, and whole again. Healing is possible-and you don’t have to do it alone.

Ms. Clare Pentelow
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, M.S.W., R.S.W.
Trauma is the result of an event that shatters your feelings of safety. This may be a single event, or multiple events over the course of a lifetime. I provide a warm, non judgmental approach to working with clients that have dealt with such challenging events. By going at a pace that is comfortable for my clients I work to create a safe relationship where they can feel comfortable opening up. Once safety is established, I support my client in processing the traumatic memories and the beliefs that are a result of these events. This could be through different talk therapy techniques (internal family systems, relational therapy, CBT, compassion focused therapy, strengths based therapy), or through Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) depending on what feels like the best fit for them.

Clare Pentelow
Therapist, MSW, RSW
Trauma isn't just about what happened in the past; it’s about how those experiences live on in your body and mind today. It can feel like being stuck in a constant state of high alert, experiencing intrusive memories, or feeling profoundly disconnected from yourself and others. Whether you are navigating a single distressing event or a history of relational trauma, I provide a secure, compassionate space to unpack the impact these experiences have had on your sense of safety and your identity.
My approach is deeply trauma-informed and rooted in the belief that your "symptoms" are actually survival strategies your system created to protect you. We can use EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) to help your nervous system finally "digest" and file away traumatic memories that feel stuck in the present. By weaving in IFS (Internal Family Systems) and psychodynamic insights, we work to unburden the parts of you that carry the weight of the past. My goal is to help you move from a state of survival toward a reclaimed sense of peace, resilience, and wholeness.
