Trauma can cause irreversible impacts to our lives that seem impossible to overcome. It comes in different shapes and sizes and affects everyone differently. Together, client and therapist work together to understand how trauma invades the psyche and dysregulates the body. Trauma is life-changing, but talk-therapy combined with somatic interventions can support post-traumatic growth and the rewiring of unhealthy self-narratives and cognitive distortions.

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.

Chris Cowan
Registered Psychotherapist, MACP, Bth
In addressing trauma and PTSD, I utilize mindfulness-based interventions to help clients anchor themselves in the present, reducing the intensity of traumatic memories and flashbacks. This approach fosters a sense of safety and control, enabling individuals to process their experiences at their own pace.

Trauma immediately causes a change in our physiology and readies our body to fight, flee or freeze. Trauma embeds itself in our brains and bodies, perhaps partly because of the human will to survive. We have to both understand it and gently take away its power. Trauma is unique: what is traumatic for one person may not be traumatic to another. Trauma causes a miss-match between what we see and reality, causing us to over-react and plunge our bodies into a state of panic: adrenalin flowing and a state of readiness to fight, flee or freeze. Later, our bodies may be plunged into that same hypervigilance for no real reason: that is PTSD. Often we mask how we feel and act how we 'know we should', widening the gap between how we feel inside and what we do. If we don't recognize trauma straight off, and process and heal it, the result of that trauma builds inside us with every new traumatic event, also leading to PTSD. If you have experienced trauma - something that you personally have found traumatic - come explore it. Don't let it take over your life?
