Lolita Abramyan
Registered Psychotherapist, Registered Psychotherapist, RP
Trauma can impact every part of ourselves; the physical, emotional, mental, and spiritual. Trauma, no matter how big or small, makes us feel that we do not have control over our lives and are vulnerable to threat. Trauma often stays in the body and the subconscious mind, until we are ready to address it. With a focus on the nervous system and its role in storing trauma, I provide my clients with a safe, nurturing environment in which they can express and explore their trauma from the past or present. Using practical tools based in CBT, Mindfulness, and Somatic-informed approaches, I help my clients process the trauma in a gradual way. Trauma does not have to control your life. My goal is to collaborate with my clients to help them overcome it and move forward.

Hannah Bickle | Self, Relationships, Emotions
Registered Psychotherapist, RP (Q)
The effects of trauma can show up in many ways, including anxiety, emotional overwhelm, difficulty trusting others, or feeling disconnected from yourself. Often, these responses developed as ways of coping with experiences that felt too much, too fast, or too painful.
In therapy, we can move at a pace that feels right for you. Some sessions may focus on building a foundation of safety, trust, and emotional regulation, while others may involve deeper processing through approaches such as EMDR or parts work. Together, we can work toward helping you better understand yourself, reconnect with your emotions, and cultivate a greater sense of safety and self-trust.

Lexi Gayne Psychotherapy
Registered Psychotherapist, RP
Trauma has a way of forcing the past to intrude on your present, whether it stems from one specific event or a prolonged series of painful experiences. You might find yourself locked in a state of constant hyper-vigilance, having a trauma response to ordinary situations, or experiencing a heavy emotional numbness that leaves you disconnected from yourself and the people you love. Establishing a deep foundation of safety and trust is my absolute highest priority. Moving at a pace that feels entirely secure for you, I will support you in navigating these overwhelming emotions. The focus is on gently helping your nervous system release stored survival energy, allowing the past to finally remain in the past. As this heavy burden lifts, space opens up for hope to return, empowering you to build a future rich with the things that matter most.

McDowall Integrative Psychology and Healthcare
Psychologist, Psychologist, Registered Psychotherapist, Pre Registration Professionals
The primary indicators of PTSD are 1) re-experiencing of the event, through flashbacks, nightmares and distressing memories, 2) avoidance, through numbing the emotions and feeling detached from others, and 3) hypervigilance and a chronic state of anxious arousal. They may feel irritable and have outbursts of anger and may stop participating in activities and relationships that used to bring them happiness before the event. These are natural reactions to the extreme stress they have endured, and continue to endure, and can make life very difficult for the individual and those who love them.
If you or someone you know has experienced a traumatic event, you may recognize some of these symptoms in yourself or your friend/loved one. Take heart, because there is help and there is hope. PTSD is often a chronic condition, but it does not have to be a permanent life sentence. With courage and perseverance, you can overcome your body’s safety mechanisms and protective behaviours and break free of the debilitating cycle of fear, avoidance, pain, and confusion.
How McDowall Integrative Psychology & Healthcare can help you.
At McDowall Integrative Psychology & Healthcare, we take pride in providing our clients with a warm, confidential and safe environment so you will feel open to discuss whatever is on your mind. Making you feel comfortable each and every time you visit is very important to us.
Some stress at work is normal, but if you find yourself under a lot of pressure and this negatively affects other areas of your life such as your social, personal, and physical domains, then you might benefit from our counselling services.
We provide a confidential, compassionate, and non-judgmental environment where you can speak to one of our therapists about the issues you are experiencing. We will help you implement some coping strategies or improve your existing ones in order to improve your well-being, not simply during your work day but throughout the long-term. We look forward to working with you through the pressures you are facing and help strengthen your resilience to external and internal contributors of stress.
