Trauma and PTSD
McDowall Integrative Psychology and Healthcare
Psychologist, Psychologist, Registered Psychotherapist, Pre Registration Professionals
The primary indicators of PTSD are 1) re-experiencing of the event, through flashbacks, nightmares and distressing memories, 2) avoidance, through numbing the emotions and feeling detached from others, and 3) hypervigilance and a chronic state of anxious arousal. They may feel irritable and have outbursts of anger and may stop participating in activities and relationships that used to bring them happiness before the event. These are natural reactions to the extreme stress they have endured, and continue to endure, and can make life very difficult for the individual and those who love them.
If you or someone you know has experienced a traumatic event, you may recognize some of these symptoms in yourself or your friend/loved one. Take heart, because there is help and there is hope. PTSD is often a chronic condition, but it does not have to be a permanent life sentence. With courage and perseverance, you can overcome your body’s safety mechanisms and protective behaviours and break free of the debilitating cycle of fear, avoidance, pain, and confusion.

At McDowall Integrative Psychology & Healthcare, we take pride in providing our clients with a warm, confidential and safe environment so you will feel open to discuss whatever is on your mind. Making you feel comfortable each and every time you visit is very important to us.
Some stress at work is normal, but if you find yourself under a lot of pressure and this negatively affects other areas of your life such as your social, personal, and physical domains, then you might benefit from our counselling services.
We provide a confidential, compassionate, and non-judgmental environment where you can speak to one of our therapists about the issues you are experiencing. We will help you implement some coping strategies or improve your existing ones in order to improve your well-being, not simply during your work day but throughout the long-term. We look forward to working with you through the pressures you are facing and help strengthen your resilience to external and internal contributors of stress.

Rachel Morris
Registered Social Worker, RSW, MSW
The origins of EMDR are rooted in working with PTSD and trauma. This evidence-based therapy has been proven to work with symptoms including anxiety, depression, phobias, and panic. Gestalt therapy is an empathetic and relational approach that supports the specific needs of the client and fosters self understanding and growth. These two modalities complement each other to produce holistic and comprehensive healing.

Molly Heffernan
Registered Social Worker, MSW, RSW
I want you to know that the trauma you experienced is not your fault and that you deserve help. Trauma changes us. It can leave lasting scars on our minds and bodies, impacting how we see ourselves and the world. It can change how our bodies behave, often in ways that are beyond our conscious control. Whether it's from a single event or ongoing ones, trauma can create a deep sense of shame, fear, broken-ness, making it difficult to move forward. You are not broken, and you do not need to be fixed. While healing from trauma is a gradual process, it is absolutely possible with patience, understanding, and the right support. Seeking therapy is an incredibly courageous step, and you are not alone. Please feel very welcomed to reach out for a free consultation to see if we would be a good fit to move forward with therapy together.
