Support for Trauma and PTSD
Trauma leaves imprints—not just in memory, but in the body, the nervous system, and the subconscious. I offer a safe, attuned space to explore those imprints with care, clarity, and compassion.
As a trauma-informed therapist, I understand how deeply trauma can affect relationships, emotional regulation, and daily functioning. My approach is gentle yet effective, combining Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), somatic awareness, mindfulness, and reflective process work to support healing at your own pace.
Areas of Focus Include:
• Complex trauma and early relational wounds
• Single-incident trauma and acute stress
• Military and first responder experiences
• Interpersonal violence and emotional abuse
• Anxiety, panic, and hypervigilance linked to trauma
This work is about restoring a sense of safety—internally and relationally. Together, we’ll explore what’s been held, what’s been silenced, and what’s ready to be released. I prioritize trust, respect, and emotional presence, creating a space where you can feel deeply heard and supported as you reconnect with your strength and resilience.

PTSD/Trauma
Masha Andreeva
Registered Psychotherapist, HonBA, DTATI, RP
Art therapy can be a transformative tool for healing from trauma and PTSD, offering a safe, nonverbal space to process deeply-held emotions and experiences. Through creative expression, you can externalize and make sense of painful memories, gain insight into the underlying patterns, and reconnect with your inner strength. My approach integrates mindfulness, body-based practices, and trauma-informed care, supporting you in staying grounded and present throughout the process. Drawing from my experience with ecotherapy, psychedelic-assisted therapy, and spiritual practices, I guide you in uncovering and transforming limiting beliefs, restoring a sense of control, and fostering resilience as you move forward in your journey toward healing and empowerment.
20 Years Experience
Online in Gatineau, QC (Online Only)
Gatineau sits directly across the Ottawa River from Canada's capital and functions as the Quebec side of the Ottawa-Gatineau National Capital Region, with a predominantly French-speaking population of federal government workers who access many services in both official languages. The city's identity is distinct from Ottawa — more working-class and francophone in character — and French-language therapy is the norm, with access to English-speaking practitioners limited relative to the Ontario side of the river. CISSS de l'Outaouais provides public mental health resources, and many Gatineau residents access the broader Ottawa-Gatineau therapy ecosystem via the bridges connecting both cities. Therapists here frequently encounter the stresses of public service careers, bilingual professional demands, and the particular challenges of raising families in a bicultural, bilingual metro area.
