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.

Maria Christopoulos
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.

Registered Psychotherapist, Registered Psychotherapist (Qualifying) in Ontario, registration no. 13745
Trauma and PTSD (Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder) can have a profound and lasting impact on our lives. Hi, I'm Yidia, a compassionate psychotherapist specialized in helping individuals heal from trauma and find renewed strength and resilience.
Experiencing trauma can leave us feeling overwhelmed, disconnected, and haunted by painful memories. Whether it's a single event or a prolonged series of challenging experiences, trauma can deeply affect our emotional well-being, relationships, and overall quality of life. However, I want you to know that healing and recovery are possible.
In my practice, I offer a safe and nurturing space where we can explore the effects of trauma and work towards finding healing and growth. I draw from evidence-based modalities, such as trauma-focused therapy, EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing), and somatic approaches to help you process and integrate your experiences.
Together, we will work at your own pace, honoring your unique journey towards healing. I provide a non-judgmental and empathetic environment where you can safely share your story, gain insights, and develop coping mechanisms to manage symptoms associated with PTSD.
I understand that healing from trauma is a deeply personal and transformative process. Through our therapeutic work, we will address the impact trauma has on your life, emotions, and relationships. We will focus on restoring a sense of safety, reestablishing healthy boundaries, and fostering self-compassion.
If you are ready to embark on the path to healing from trauma and reclaim your life from its grip, please reach out to schedule a consultation. Together, we will navigate the complexities of trauma, foster resilience, and help you rediscover a renewed sense of well-being and possibility. Remember, you are not defined by your past experiences, and there is hope for a brighter future ahead.

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.

McDowall Integrative Psychology and Healthcare
Psychologist, Psychologist, Registered Psychotherapist, Pre Registration Professionals
The primary indicators of PTSD are 1) re-experiencing of the event, through flashbacks, nightmares and distressing memories, 2) avoidance, through numbing the emotions and feeling detached from others, and 3) hypervigilance and a chronic state of anxious arousal. They may feel irritable and have outbursts of anger and may stop participating in activities and relationships that used to bring them happiness before the event. These are natural reactions to the extreme stress they have endured, and continue to endure, and can make life very difficult for the individual and those who love them.
If you or someone you know has experienced a traumatic event, you may recognize some of these symptoms in yourself or your friend/loved one. Take heart, because there is help and there is hope. PTSD is often a chronic condition, but it does not have to be a permanent life sentence. With courage and perseverance, you can overcome your body’s safety mechanisms and protective behaviours and break free of the debilitating cycle of fear, avoidance, pain, and confusion.
