Alisha Levine
Registered Psychotherapist, Registered Psychotherapist (Qualifying)
Trauma can stay with us long after an experience has ended. You may find yourself feeling on edge, overwhelmed by certain situations, disconnected from yourself or others, or struggling with memories that feel difficult to put into the past. Sometimes the impact of trauma is less obvious and shows up through anxiety, difficulty trusting, relationship challenges, or feeling constantly responsible for keeping everything under control. Therapy can be a safe, supportive space to begin making sense of what you’ve been through and at a pace that feels right for you. Together, we can gently explore how trauma may be affecting you today, develop tools to help you feel more grounded and safe, and work toward reconnecting with yourself and your life with greater compassion and confidence.

Nicole Moss
Registered Psychotherapist, Registered Psychotherapist (Qualifying), C.S.P.S.S
Life can feel overwhelming when you’re carrying the weight of trauma or diagnosed or suspected PTSD. My goal is to support you as I genuinely feel that everyone holds their own map to healing, however, many often need help navigating their path forward. Whether you’re also working on other forms of trauma recovery, healing from abuse, or working through the stages of grief, you don’t have to go through it alone. I am grateful to be that source of support for current and new clients. I help people create, enforce, and maintain boundaries that may have once felt impossible to implement, giving them space to feel safer, more empowered, and more connected to themselves and others. I work from an eclectic approach, believing there is no one-size-fits-all path to therapy. Together we can help you break free from limiting patterns and beliefs.

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.

Robert M. Lee
Registered Psychotherapist
Trauma isn’t just a memory—it’s something that lives in the body, shaping emotions, relationships, and self-perception. My approach integrates mindfulness, depth psychology, and somatic awareness to help you process trauma without becoming overwhelmed by it. We work at a pace that feels safe, exploring how past wounds influence your present while reconnecting with your innate resilience. Whether you're experiencing flashbacks, emotional numbness, hypervigilance, or deep-seated patterns of fear, therapy provides a space to process, heal, and reclaim your sense of self.

Maria Christopoulos
Registered Psychotherapist, M.A., M.Sc., RP
Trauma and PTSD can occur when unexpected significant life events occur. Behaviours exhibited by those suffering from trauma can become affected for some time after an event has occurred. It is important to note changes in thoughts and behaviours. Therapeutic interventions can help identify triggering thoughts and behaviours, how they affect emotional well being and provide positive coping to help alleviate some of these symptoms.
