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.
How McDowall Integrative Psychology & Healthcare can help you.
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.

Yidia Xin
Registered Psychotherapist, Registered Psychotherapist (Qualifying) in Ontario, registration no. 13745
Trauma and PTSD (Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder) can have a profound and lasting impact on our lives. Hi, I'm Yidia, a compassionate psychotherapist specialized in helping individuals heal from trauma and find renewed strength and resilience.
Experiencing trauma can leave us feeling overwhelmed, disconnected, and haunted by painful memories. Whether it's a single event or a prolonged series of challenging experiences, trauma can deeply affect our emotional well-being, relationships, and overall quality of life. However, I want you to know that healing and recovery are possible.
In my practice, I offer a safe and nurturing space where we can explore the effects of trauma and work towards finding healing and growth. I draw from evidence-based modalities, such as trauma-focused therapy, EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing), and somatic approaches to help you process and integrate your experiences.
Together, we will work at your own pace, honoring your unique journey towards healing. I provide a non-judgmental and empathetic environment where you can safely share your story, gain insights, and develop coping mechanisms to manage symptoms associated with PTSD.
I understand that healing from trauma is a deeply personal and transformative process. Through our therapeutic work, we will address the impact trauma has on your life, emotions, and relationships. We will focus on restoring a sense of safety, reestablishing healthy boundaries, and fostering self-compassion.
If you are ready to embark on the path to healing from trauma and reclaim your life from its grip, please reach out to schedule a consultation. Together, we will navigate the complexities of trauma, foster resilience, and help you rediscover a renewed sense of well-being and possibility. Remember, you are not defined by your past experiences, and there is hope for a brighter future ahead.

Trauma and PTSD
Kayla Schofield
Registered Psychotherapist, RP
We all have experienced negative events but not necessarily trauma. Trauma is an emotional response to a terrible event like an accident, rape, or natural disaster. Immediately after the event, shock and denial are typical. Longer term reactions include unpredictable emotions, flashbacks, strained relationships, and even physical symptoms like headaches or nausea.
