Goran Kosanovic
Registered Psychotherapist, HBCom, MACP
Trauma and PTSD can have a profound impact on mental health, leaving individuals feeling stuck in patterns of fear, anxiety, and emotional distress. Whether stemming from past abuse, accidents, or other life events, trauma can affect relationships, self-esteem, and day-to-day functioning. Through solution-focused brief therapy (SFBT), survivors can begin to heal, process their experiences, and rebuild their lives. Therapy helps individuals regain a sense of safety, learn coping strategies for managing triggers, and reclaim control over their emotional well-being. Healing from trauma is possible, and therapy offers a path to restoration, resilience, and empowerment in moving forward.

Sarah Glinski
Registered Psychotherapist, RP (Qualifying)
Living with trauma is exhausting. It often leaves people feeling constantly on edge, overwhelmed, misunderstood and under supported. I work with trauma clients to help them to process what has happened in the past, cope with what they are experiencing in the present and look forward to building and maintaining a stable healthy future. I draw on psychodynamic, somatic, cognitive processing and narrative theories and approaches. You can contact me to schedule a free consultation to determine if I am the best fit for you.

Mind Path Therapy
Therapist, MSW, RSW
Traumatic experiences can happen to anyone and are an overwhelming shock to the nervous system that often resolves in months. For many people, however, trauma continues to live in the nervous system, taking the form of post-traumatic symptoms, like re-experiencing, disturbed sleep, hypervigilance, anxiety and depression, and avoidance patterns that interfere with relationships and work. I use an integrative approach to working with my trauma clients, including Cognitive Processing Therapy (a form of CBT for trauma), Dialectical Behavioural Therapy techniques (to help with emotion regulation), and training I've done in somatic and body-based therapy techniques. These approaches help those suffering with post-traumatic symptoms understand how trauma is stored and manifests in the body, and how to gently and mindfully contact their trauma reactions in ways that help their nervous system become less reactive and more open and resilient. I also incorporate Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) techniques and approaches, especially practices that help with contacting the present moment, unhooking from disturbing or disruptive thoughts and feelings, and grounding yourself in your values as the compass to a more engaged life that is not dominated by trauma.

Vaughan is one of Canada's fastest-growing cities and part of the Greater Toronto Area's northern expansion, with a large Italian-Canadian community alongside growing South Asian, Chinese, and Middle Eastern populations creating a diverse and evolving therapy demand. The city's relative newness as a major population center means its private therapy infrastructure is still developing, and many residents access care in Toronto or through telehealth. Mackenzie Health's Cortellucci Vaughan Hospital — one of Canada's newest major hospitals — provides institutional resources, and the broader GTA ecosystem of therapists is accessible for those willing to travel or use online platforms. Vaughan's affluent suburban character means therapy is financially accessible for many, though stigma barriers in some cultural communities remain a consideration.
