Bonnie Nelson
Registered Psychotherapist, Registered Psychotherapist, MA(CP)(Distinct.), BA(Hons)
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.

Trauma and PTSD
John Harrison, CFIR St Catharines
Counsellor/Therapist, PhD
Trauma can have a lasting impact on how we see ourselves and the world, as well as our relationships, and neuroscience has shown how trauma, particularly when experienced when young within our intimate relationships, can influence the development and functional integrations of our brains and nervous system. My trauma-informed approach emphasizes creating felt safety within the therapeutic relationship, and from this place of safety we can begin to understand how to metabolize the trauma and reclaim connection with ourselves and those that we value in our lives.

Emmy Montemurro-Baxter

Very many people have experienced traumatic events in their lives. These experiences can leave one feeling unsafe, a sense helplessness and loss of trust. After a traumatic event one may experience any combination of the following:
- flashbacks
- hyper vigilance
- difficulty staying present
- de realization or depersonalization.
- a sense of panic
- difficulty sleeping
I work from a trauma informed perspective. I practice a multi-modal style of therapy. I find drawing on techniques from several approaches allows me tailor my sessions to meet the needs of each client, depending on what they bring to therapy.
