Licensed Mental Health Counsellor, MA, RCC
When working trauma and PTSD, I like to start with some mindfulness around the issue to gain a deeper understanding of the experience, from here there are many options, and I rely of the client's wisdom to guide me.

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.

Traumatic grief can happen when a death is sudden, unexpected, violent, unexplained, or impossible to make sense of. This may include losses connected to suicide, overdose, accidents, homicide, sudden medical events, or deaths where the cause or circumstances feel unclear. Any death can feel traumatic, but traumatic grief often carries an extra layer of shock because the person was here, and then suddenly they were not.
I support adults navigating traumatic grief, including the fear, confusion, anger, guilt, unanswered questions, looping thoughts, and emotional overwhelm that can follow this kind of loss. When a death feels random, preventable, unclear, or deeply unfair, the mind often tries to search for reasons, blame, facts, or something that will make the loss feel less unbearable.
As a certified grief coach, I help clients understand why traumatic grief can feel different from other grief experiences. I acknowledge and normalize what they are thinking and feeling, explain these reactions in plain language, and offer practical tools to help manage triggers, intrusive thoughts, overwhelm, guilt, anger, and the search for answers after a traumatic or unclear death.

Andrea Laznik Amit
Registered Psychotherapist, RP, MA in clinical psychology
If you experienced abuse, neglect or indifference in your childhood, or unusual events later in life- they affect us extensively. We can explore your attachment patterns created as a result of that and the ruptures created when unusual events happen in our life. This will help you regain control of how they affect you in the present.

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.
