Trauma and PTSD
Victoria Lorient-Faibish
Registered Psychotherapist, MEd, RP, CCC, RPE
Trauma and post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) can have a tremendous impact on a person's mental, emotional, and physical well-being. When working to overcome trauma and PTSD, it's essential to address the issue holistically, taking into account the individual's whole being. This includes exploring the root causes of the trauma, examining the physical sensations that arise in the body, and examining how the mind responds to trauma triggers. Peter Levine's work in "Waking the Tiger" emphasizes the importance of addressing the physical sensations associated with trauma. By incorporating techniques such as mindfulness, somatic experiencing, and energy work, individuals can work through the traumas that contribute to PTSD symptoms, helping them to lead healthier, happier lives. Holistic approaches can be powerful tools for overcoming trauma and PTSD, allowing individuals to identify and address the underlying issues that impact their mental health.

Ekta Abhay Lather
Registered Psychotherapist, Registered Psychotherapist
Trauma refers to the emotional and psychological impact of experiencing distressing or life-threatening events. It can arise from various situations, including accidents, abuse, natural disasters, or the loss of a loved one. Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) is a specific mental health condition that may develop after experiencing or witnessing trauma. Individuals with PTSD often face symptoms such as flashbacks, nightmares, severe anxiety, and emotional numbness, which can disrupt daily life and relationships. It's important to understand that trauma affects everyone differently, and recovery is possible. Seeking support from mental health professionals, engaging in therapy, and connecting with support groups can be vital in the healing process. By acknowledging and addressing trauma, individuals can work toward reclaiming their lives and finding a path to resilience and healing.

Rachel Morris
Registered Social Worker, RSW, MSW
The origins of EMDR are rooted in working with PTSD and trauma. This evidence-based therapy has been proven to work with symptoms including anxiety, depression, phobias, and panic. Gestalt therapy is an empathetic and relational approach that supports the specific needs of the client and fosters self understanding and growth. These two modalities complement each other to produce holistic and comprehensive healing.

Liz Witzke
Registered Psychotherapist, RPQ, BA, LLB, CSAT, CPTT
A traumatic event has left you in deep distress. Whether it was physical or psychological your bodily integrity has been threatened and you do not have enough resources to compensate for the symptoms you are experiencing. Hyper-vigilance, avoidance, increased arousal and activity, depression, intrusive thoughts, difficulty maintaining connection to others and the weight of it all can be overwhelming. These reactions are completely natural, and it’s okay if you feel lost right now. My purpose is to help you process what has happened and begin to find steady ground again.

Peter Stathakos
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, Registered Social Worker, BBA, MDiv, MSW, CMAT, CSAT
Traumatic experiences often bring complex coping responses - denial, dissociation, and minimization - as ways to manage overwhelming pain. Healing involves gently working through these responses and restoring a sense of wholeness in mind and body. It means moving beyond fragmented memories, emotional compartmentalization, and physical tension toward feeling more integrated and grounded. Reach out today to access the care you deserve.

Trauma and PTSD
Franklynn Bartol
Pre-Licensed Professional, RP (Qualifying), MSc, MA
As a relational therapist, my speciality is relational trauma (harms we've experienced or enacted within relationships) and complex trauma (trauma that is or was ongoing, such as childhood abuse or neglect). I'm also deeply attentive to forms of structural and intergenerational trauma, such as the traumatic effects of colonialism, racism, homophobia, transphobia, ableism, war, displacement, and other oppressions.
I'm very client-led, especially when it comes to addressing traumatic experience. I have great respect for the trust-building processes that may need to precede any disclosures of trauma. I also believe healing can happen in a variety of ways—there's many valid ways to address the effects of trauma. What will be important is that we co-create what works for you and remain attentive to how you're experiencing the therapy process.
Relational therapy believes that healing happens through relationships, including the therapeutic relationship. The lack of support, witnessing, validation, accountability, or reparations we experience in the wake of harm are often traumas in and of themselves. Therapy can be a place to finally experience some of this—to have someone be with you in your grief, horror, or rage, and to reclaim the parts of yourself that were lost.

Tehmina Ayana Meherali
Counsellor/Therapist, M.Ed, CCC, CMHP
I support individuals who are navigating the effects of trauma — whether recent or long past. Trauma can shape how we see ourselves, others, and the world, often showing up as anxiety, emotional overwhelm, numbness, or difficulty trusting.
My approach is gentle, trauma-informed, and paced according to your readiness. Together, we create a safe and supportive space to process experiences, strengthen coping skills, and rebuild a sense of safety, empowerment, and self-trust.

Nadia Malik
Registered Psychotherapist
When working with trauma and PTSD I use a gentle compassionate approach. Together we can work on increasing your emotion regulation, calming, healthy coping, and ability to manage day to day. Next, we can explore the lasting effects of the traumatic experience, thoughts, emotions, and work on adapting those. We can work on recognizing triggers and how to handle these with the goal of making life seem less turbulent, understanding yourself better, feeling more comfortable and in control.
