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.

Trauma and PTSD
Mind By Design®
Registered Psychotherapist, Psychology and Coaching Clinics
Although PTSD is usually associated with soldiers returning from war, it covers a significantly wider population. This is because PTSD is a pervasive mental illness that is typically brought on by the experience (or witnessing) of trauma associated with death, threat of death, serious injury, sexual violence, etc. Traumatic events are typically unexpected, and the sufferer can often feel powerless to stop or change the event.

Trauma and PTSD
EMDR and Trauma Therapy Centre
Registered Social Worker, Registered Social Worker, MSW, RSW
The co-occurrence of past trauma and current discomfort is evident in both trauma and post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD). Traumatic events, which are ingrained in attachment ties, have the power to shattered feelings of safety and security, leaving lasting emotional wounds. Whether stemming from childhood neglect, abuse, or adult trauma, these experiences can disrupt the ability to form secure attachments and regulate emotions. Therapy becomes a sanctuary for healing, providing a safe space to explore the underlying attachment dynamics and process the echoes of past traumas. By fostering self-compassion, nurturing secure attachments, and integrating traumatic memories, individuals can begin to reclaim agency over their lives, forging a path towards healing, resilience, and reclaiming a sense of safety and wholeness.

Ahmadreza Zamani
Registered Psychotherapist, Registered Psychotherapist
Trauma is an event or experience that is deeply distressing or upsetting, and can have long-lasting effects on an individual's mental and emotional well-being. PTSD, or Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder, is a mental health condition that can develop after exposure to a traumatic event, such as a natural disaster, combat, sexual assault, or a car accident.
PTSD can cause a range of symptoms, including intrusive thoughts and memories of the traumatic event, avoidance of reminders of the trauma, and negative changes in mood and cognition. These symptoms can interfere with daily life and relationships, and may lead to other mental health issues such as depression and anxiety.
Effective treatments for PTSD include psychotherapy, specifically Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), and medication. Trauma-focused therapy can help individuals process their traumatic experiences, develop coping skills, and reduce symptoms of PTSD. If you or a loved one is struggling with the effects of trauma or PTSD, it is important to seek help from a licensed mental health professional to receive a proper diagnosis and develop a comprehensive treatment plan.

Trauma and PTSD
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.
