Sunlight Counselling, Melody Mann
Registered Social Worker, MSW, RSW
Trauma can leave deep imprints on both the body and mind, shaping how you see yourself and the world around you. You may find yourself reliving painful memories, feeling on edge, or struggling to trust safety again. Through EMDR and other trauma-informed approaches, we’ll work to gently process what’s been overwhelming so that you can begin to feel grounded, connected, and whole again. Healing is possible-and you don’t have to do it alone.

Mind By Design®
Registered Psychotherapist, Psychology and Coaching Clinics
Although PTSD is usually associated with soldiers returning from war, it covers a significantly wider population. This is because PTSD is a pervasive mental illness that is typically brought on by the experience (or witnessing) of trauma associated with death, threat of death, serious injury, sexual violence, etc. Traumatic events are typically unexpected, and the sufferer can often feel powerless to stop or change the event.

Melissa Huang
Registered Psychotherapist, (Qualifying), MA
Trauma doesn't stay in the past; it lives in the body, in the nightmares and flashbacks, in the hypervigilance that never lets you fully rest, in the numbness that keeps everyone at arm's length. What happened to you was not your fault, and how you've survived makes sense. You'll find a warm, nonjudgmental space here where safety and trust come first, always, and where we move only at your pace. Drawing on approaches like EMDR, the goal isn't just to manage symptoms, it's to help your mind and body finally understand the danger has passed, so you can genuinely reconnect with yourself and the people you love. Together we'll work toward feeling more grounded, safer in your own skin, and more equipped to live fully in the present.

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.
