Elliott Kemmet
Counsellor/Therapist, MSW, BSW, RSW
In my trauma and PTSD counseling, I provide a secure and compassionate setting where individuals can address and heal from the profound impacts of traumatic experiences. Understanding that trauma affects both the mind and body, I guide clients through the process of identifying and processing traumatic memories, reducing the intensity of emotional and physical responses associated with these events. My approach is gentle and empathetic, focusing on empowering clients with effective coping mechanisms and resilience-building strategies. We work together to create a path toward healing that respects each individual's pace and emotional capacity. This therapeutic journey aims to restore a sense of control, peace, and well-being, allowing clients to reclaim their lives and move forward with renewed purpose and strength.

Lisa Mollica, RP Keeping Peace Counselling
Counsellor/Therapist, RP
The experience of a traumatic event is unique for everyone, that's why "trauma therapy" shouldn't be one size fits all.
Whether you want to address the effects of the trauma rather than speaking about the trauma specifically OR if you feel drawn to re-examine the event and process its impact - all therapy should be trauma-informed and trauma-sensitive.

Life in Harmony Counselling Services
Counsellor/Therapist
Therapy stands out as one of the most effective approaches for developing long-term strategies to effectively manage the symptoms of PTSD. Diagnosing PTSD can be challenging, as it is often concealed by other symptoms, and individuals may experience periods of being asymptomatic.
Underlying distress in conditions like depression and substance abuse is frequently rooted in a traumatic experience. By working with a therapist in a secure environment, you can address and process your trauma. This therapeutic journey empowers you to regain control over your thoughts and emotions, liberating you from the unconscious grip of trauma. Trauma therapy plays a crucial role in restoring a sense of wholeness and well-being after enduring a traumatic event.

Trauma and PTSD
Recalibrate Therapeutic Services
Registered Social Worker, B.A., Psych, M.S.W., R.S.W.
Post-traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) is an anxiety disorder that affects our mental health. It is characterized by PTSD symptoms that begin after a specific traumatic event or a build-up of trauma over time. This traumatic event or general trauma is often replayed repeatedly in the person's mind, making it appear as if they are continually experiencing this event. This results in the fears and stress associated with the trauma being continually reactivated in the body and mind.
The key to a diagnosis of PTSD is that this trauma, whether experiencing it or witnessing it, leads to debilitating anxiety symptoms that impact one’s ability to function on a day-to-day basis.

Understanding trauma can be complicated. It can be obvious with apparent symptoms or sometimes it may be buried beneath depression, anxiety, and anger. Trauma is an emotional response to a traumatic or distressing event (war, accident, abuse, unexpected loss, etc). It can cause emotional and physical symptoms and last for years after the event has concluded. Individuals who have experiences traumatic events may have difficulty coping, and symptoms can worsen over time as well as impact your day to day functioning, if you do not receive effective treatment. It can increase your risk for other mental health challenges, and disrupt your job, your relationships, your health, and enjoyment of everyday activities.

Trauma and PTSD
Mariya Garnet
Pre-Licensed Professional, Pre-licensed Psychotherapist
My approach to trauma treatment is rooted in Expressive Arts Therapy (EXAT), recognizing that trauma, particularly pre-verbal trauma, often resides in the body beyond the reach of traditional talk therapy. EXAT offers a unique and powerful way to access and process these deeply held experiences.
Key aspects of our work include:
Utilizing multiple artistic modalities to bypass cognitive defenses and access implicit memories
Engaging the body's wisdom through movement, sound, and visual expression
Addressing pre-verbal trauma through non-verbal, sensory-based interventions
Integrating "brain-wise" arts-based techniques to support trauma reparation and recovery
EXAT provides a safe, non-threatening avenue for expressing and processing traumatic experiences that may be difficult or impossible to verbalize. Through creative expression, we work to release trapped emotions, reframe traumatic narratives, and restore a sense of safety and control.
This approach is particularly effective for:
Childhood trauma and developmental trauma
Complex PTSD
Somatic symptoms related to trauma
Dissociative disorders
The goal is to help clients reconnect with their bodies, regulate their nervous systems, and integrate fragmented aspects of their experiences. By engaging multiple senses and tapping into the body's innate healing capacity, EXAT offers a holistic path to trauma recovery and resilience.
