Nathan Kretzschmar
Registered Psychotherapist, RP
Trauma can affect how you feel in your body, relate to others, see yourself, and respond to stress long after the danger has passed. I support clients with PTSD and trauma-related concerns using a paced, trauma-informed approach that emphasizes safety, choice, stabilization, and self-understanding. When appropriate, EMDR and mindfulness-based strategies may be used to support trauma processing.

Ryan Bittinger
Pre-Licensed Professional, Registered Psychotherapist (Q), DPsychotherapy, LPCC, CAS
Traumatic experiences (yes including the one you are thinking isn't *that* traumatic right now) hurt and change us in unique ways. Working through what we have experienced and making sense of how it continues to impact us in the present can allow us to take care of ourselves and be compassionate when the way we've been impacted shows up in ways we wish it wouldn't. We can also use these opportunities to lean into the possibility of post-traumatic growth - that moment when we realize that, after healing, we are stronger than ever.

Barbara Freedman
Pre-Licensed Professional, M.Ed., OAMHP(Ontario Association of Mental Health Professionals-2704-G)
As a counsellor for 9 years on The Quick Victim Response Program (QVRP+)list for Ottawa Victim Services, I have successfully dedicated myself to help facilitate the healing of well over one hundred Victim Service clients in the areas of crisis intervention, abuse, and trauma. I provided a safe space for those who have sustained crime-related circumstances, such as physical and sexual assault, including rape. Clients who seek Victim Services include those who have been impacted by intimate partner violence or child abuse. These clients are comprised of those who endured tragedies such as homicide of a family member, or a being a witness to violent crime. I provided an emotional holding environment for victims who have experienced sex trafficking or have been subjected to hate crimes, which have escalated over the past years.
When the tension from trauma is not released, it can get stuck in our nervous system. I use somatic techniques such as trauma renegotiation to help clients release these horrific memories.
Secondary wounding is another common issue that victims of post traumatic stress face as they suffer the double abuse of social condemnation on top of their original misfortune. If any of these issues sound familiar to you, I am here to listen and offer my support and guidance.

Nepean is a large suburban district of Ottawa, a former city in its own right that now houses a substantial share of the capital's public servants, tech workers, and established families across communities from Barrhaven to Bells Corners. Mental health needs lean toward public-service career stress, family and parenting concerns, and the pressures of a growing, diversifying suburban population. The Royal Ottawa Mental Health Centre and Ottawa's broad provider community anchor access, with services available in both English and French.
