PTSD/Trauma
Sanja Dejanovic
Registered Psychotherapist, RP, PhD
Emotional remnants of past experiences can become reactivated or triggered in the present in a way that does not make sense to us but leave us feeling unsafe, distressed, or in state of unease. Traumatic experiencing does not only involve a single impactful event, but can mean having found oneself in prolonged interactions, environments, and situations in the past that continue to frame internal reexperiencing in the present, even if the threat is no longer there or has passed. As a sensorimotor or somatic therapist informed by neuroscience and other approaches such as IFS, coherence therapy, brainspotting and polyvagal theory, I will support you to, at your pace, invite a sense of internal safety, soothe your nervous system, and process emotional activations, by offering a reparative relational therapeutic experience. Contact me for a complimentary 20 minute consultation. I am here for you.

Kristen See
Registered Psychotherapist, MA, RP
I specialize in supporting folks heal from traumas such as childhood emotional neglect, domestic violence, sexual assault, grief/loss, and complex traumas such as co-dependency, attachment wounds, emotional abuse, parentification and exposure to emotionally immature parents. Trauma can also look like job loss, pet loss, car accidents, losing your home to a natural disaster, divorce, major illness, discrimination, bullying, and more. In session, healing begins with forming a secure therapeutic relationship, followed by a period of "resourcing" (skill building). Trauma processing is a non-linear process that includes opportunities to share or re-author your experience; healing also looks like releasing suppressed emotions, creating change or embracing a stance of acceptance. In addition, trauma work often includes reframing beliefs about the self, others and the world around you.

Paighe Rojas
Registered Social Worker, MSW, RSW
Trauma can leave your body stuck in survival mode—hypervigilance, shutdown, nightmares, triggers, emotional numbness, or intense reactivity. Therapy helps you expand your window of tolerance, process what happened safely, and rebuild a felt sense of control and connection. Healing is possible without reliving everything, and we’ll move at a pace your nervous system can handle.

Andrea Town
Occupational Therapist, MScOT, OT Reg. (Ont.), Psychotherapist
Trauma shapes how we feel in our bodies, how we see ourselves, and how safe we feel in relationships, often long after the events are over. In Whitby, Ajax, Pickering, and across Durham Region, I offer trauma informed psychotherapy for adults living with the effects of acute trauma, complex trauma, PTSD, and painful early experiences. Drawing from Gestalt, Cognitive Processing Therapy (CPT), DBT, mindfulness, and compassion focused approaches, I support clients at their own pace to make meaning of what happened, settle the nervous system, and rebuild a steadier, more compassionate relationship with themselves.

Moeez Munshi

Trauma and PTSD work follows a phased approach: stabilization and skills, processing when appropriate, and reconnection to life. We’ll blend CBT for trauma with DBT-informed emotion skills so you feel steadier while we do the deeper work. The goal is movement—from reliving to remembering, from survival to living. Offered in Durham and online Ontario-wide.
