Trauma and PTSD
Molly McBride
Counsellor/Therapist, MSc, RTC
When the nervous system is chronically overactivated because of trauma, it can feel like your mind has become programmed to constantly react to danger. Even if you know the danger has past, the body and nervous system may need more convincing. Together in counselling, we’ll work to process trauma, reduce the impact of triggers, and rebuild a sense of safety and balance. Using techniques like EMDR, Internal Family Systems therapy, and hypnotherapy, we’ll focus on building nervous system regulation, emotional resilience, and empowering you to move forward with greater peace.

Trauma and PTSD
Seven Vistas - Professional Life Coach and Counsellor
Counsellor/Therapist, PCC, RPC-C, NLP Master Practitioner
Trauma can get trapped in the body in incomplete states and it is very real and shows up in big ways. Imagine if your muscle couldn't let go of the lactic acid that burns during a workout, now imagine that is your nervous system, emotions, mind. Sitting on the edge a trigger that can rattle you straight back to the moment it happened, or shake you down into fight, flight or freeze. It still feels real, yes, it is still real to your body and nervous system. The body and mind can be taught to re-learn about this threat, to have new responses.

Trauma and PTSD
Ajay Sahota
Counsellor/Therapist, MA, RCC (Registered Clinical Counsellor)
EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) Therapy:
EMDR is a structured/manualized psychotherapy for people who have experienced trauma(s) in their life. It is different from talk therapy because the therapist uses specific detailed protocols and procedures such as the eight phases of treatment in EMDR. You do not need to know what this all means right now. Trust that there is a road map and plan to facilitate healing. There is less focus on therapist talk/interpretations. There is less focus on you speaking about trauma at depth. The progress gained is from your enhanced psychological processing. EMDR incorporates eye movements, tapping techniques, and other methods to unblock an imbalance in the brain’s information processing system. EMDR provides relief from symptoms and emotional distress as a result of trauma(s) (e.g., reducing intensity of PTSD symptoms and trauma related memories). The EMDR therapy process facilitates natural healing processes of the mind and removes blocks to healing.
