Tanya Beach
Registered Psychotherapist, MA, RP (Qualifying)
As an attachment therapist, I believe early trauma often originates within our family of origin, where unmet emotional, physical, or psychological needs may have left lasting imprints. These unmet needs—whether they involve a lack of nurturing, emotional attunement, or consistent support—can deeply affect our sense of security and shape how we view ourselves and others. Over time, these early experiences can contribute to feelings of insecurity, low self-worth, and difficulty forming healthy relationships. By addressing these foundational wounds, we can begin to heal the parts of ourselves that still carry the pain of our early unmet needs and work toward developing a stronger, more secure sense of self.

Ashley Berger
Registered Psychotherapist, BEd, MACP, RP
I carry a deep passion for working with clients struggling with trauma and complex PTSD. Trauma changes one’s brain and body, often making it extremely difficult to function. In therapy, we will work to re-map your emotions, brain and body, to help you connect with yourself and the present moment. While it takes time, patience and practice, trauma is treatable, and I am very passionate to support you through the process.

Watras Counselling and Psychotherapy Services
Registered Psychotherapist, RP, MACP, BSc
Working with trauma and the impacts it can have on an individual can be a delicate process; our traumas can be so painful and can have a great impact on how we feel, what we do, and who we are. I specialize in working with clients whose behaviours, feelings, and emotions have largely been shaped by the experiences they have had, and I make it clear to all of them that their lives do not have to be shaped by these experiences and that there is so much that can be done to remove the problematic feelings or reactions from their lives. It can be a deep and comprehensive process, but it is incredibly rewarding, both for the client and for me.

North Star Therapy-- Cleo Haber
Registered Social Worker, BSW, MSW, RSW
If you have experienced trauma, you may be living with normal but unwanted emotional and physical effects of trauma. Are you experiencing panic attacks, anxiety, depression or feelings of shame, fear or anger? Perhaps your sleep is disrupted, or you feel disconnected from your body at times. Psychotherapy can be an effective way to heal from trauma. We will work with you – at your own pace - to make new meaning from past experiences, while teaching you strategies to stay grounded and feel safer in your mind and body. We use trauma-informed approaches to help you feel less overwhelmed, and create safety in the present.

Trauma and PTSD
Berry Didier Nibogora - Bilingual CBT therapist @ CMAP Health
Counsellor/Therapist, RP(Q), CCPA, LLM
Trauma and PTSD are our brain and body responses to unprocessed memories. Those memories keep affected individuals stuck in the past by being taken back to the same level of arousal, fear and anxiety as when the traumatic event occurred every single time they are triggered. They result from a lack of processing and integration of what happened to be able to move to the next chapter of life. You will expect three part in our work on trauma: exposure response prevention (1), memories integration and processing work (2) and reclaiming life (3). All these stages and phases are titrated to the client’s window of tolerance and grounding strategies are often used to bring the hyper a roused or dissociating client back to the present. Using trauma-informed language and strategies, my approach is evidence based, client-informed and outcomes-focused.

Masha Andreeva
Art Therapist, HonBA, DTATI, RP(qualifying)
Art therapy can be a transformative tool for healing from trauma and PTSD, offering a safe, nonverbal space to process deeply-held emotions and experiences. Through creative expression, you can externalize and make sense of painful memories, gain insight into the underlying patterns, and reconnect with your inner strength. My approach integrates mindfulness, body-based practices, and trauma-informed care, supporting you in staying grounded and present throughout the process. Drawing from my experience with ecotherapy, psychedelic-assisted therapy, and spiritual practices, I guide you in uncovering and transforming limiting beliefs, restoring a sense of control, and fostering resilience as you move forward in your journey toward healing and empowerment.

Trauma and PTSD
Delphine Amer
Registered Psychotherapist, M.Sc., Registered Psychotherapist
Trauma can change our lives and drive our behaviours and reactions. When something traumatic happens to us, our entire body is affected; not only psychologically, but physiologically too. The good news is that the symptoms of PTSD and the resulting problems from trauma ca be radically improved. I am a trained certified clinical trauma professional (CCTP). Together, we will explore EMDR, mindfulness techniques, grounding and relaxation. I will also teach you CBT strategies for identifying cognitive distortions, rules and assumptions and core beliefs that drive our reactions to trauma. Congratulations on taking the first step on your healing journey.

Aligned Self Therapy
Registered Psychotherapist, Registered Psychotherapist (Qualifying)
Traumatic wounds can follow us for years, making life far more difficult than it needs to be, and preventing us from reaching our full potential. I offer a somatic based approach to healing trauma, so you can learn to find both understanding and relief from the difficult emotions. By exploring your traumatic feelings and beliefs at your own pace, you'll be able to process and overcome these more challenging parts of the self.
