Therapy With Haley
Registered Social Worker, B.S.W., M.S.W., R.S.W.
Haley works from an eclectic approach to address the multi-faceted concerns that you bring to therapy sessions. What makes her stand out as a therapist is her focus on you in a holistic way. Coming from an anti-oppressive lens, she practices with the values of dignity, diversity, and self-empowerment at the forefront. She highly values honesty, collaboration, respect, and empathy, all of which are evident in the way she approaches all sessions. She will work with you to explore yourself and encourage healing, growth, and reaching self-identified goals while working within your window of tolerance. Haley works with individuals who have experienced trauma and may or may not have PTSD symptoms, working to bring healing and peace with understanding and self-love for her clients.

Ariana N. Zeppieri-Makhan
Registered Psychotherapist, MA, RP
"If you've met one trauma survivor, you've met exactly one trauma survivor." Though your symptoms may be similar to others', your trauma is not. This work is delicate, and the process may be long, but I will sit patiently by you while you sort it out, help make sense of it, and bring you back to the here-and-now if you get lost in the then. My work in this area began as a student counsellor in a community mental health centre, under the expert guidance of three trauma-informed supervisors. Since then, I've worked extensively with survivors of complex trauma, accompanying them through their experiences while grounding them in the present and providing strategies for the future.

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.

Whitney Reinhart
Registered Psychotherapist, MA., RP.
The effects of trauma can leave us feeling vulnerable and unsafe long after the event itself. So often people can be left feeling hopeless, disconnected, and ashamed. Healing these wounds are essential to developing a strong sense of self, positive self view, and safety within relationships. I work from a trauma-informed perspective and pull from approaches that will allow us to build an understanding of the protective strategies formed to survive the emotional and mental impact of the trauma, and cultivate self-acceptance and trust with ourselves and others.

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.

As a Registered Psychotherapist I provide support in healing from relational trauma, narcissistic abuse, and complex trauma. I offer a safe, empathic, and understanding environment to assist in rebuilding trust and self-worth. The impact of emotional abuse is often overlooked but can lead to a lifetime struggling with self-esteem and symptoms of complex trauma. Whether you are dealing with a current relationship or wanting to explore the impact of previous relationships, I can support you in changing toxic relational patterns, boosting self-confidence, and building a path toward meaningful fulfilling relationships.

Tony Miller
Registered Psychotherapist, MA, RP
Trauma is probably the most overused concept in psychotherapy. To work with trauma, we have to differentiate between everyday normal dissatisfactions in life and profound experience of helplessness, loneliness, fear, and stress caused by a traumatic experience. PTSD is a creative, but often unhealthy, way to cope with trauma that should be acknowledged and experienced in a supportive environment for a healthy processing of the trauma that can lead to post-traumatic growth. Schedule a free 15-minute consultation to see if we are a good fit.
