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.

Sehr Athar
Registered Social Worker, MSW, RSW
I support clients across the lifespan who have experienced developemental trauma and/or may have a formal diagnosis of Complex Post Traumatic Stress Disorder. Trauma's legacy is that our mind and body can get hijacked in the present as if we are acting from the past. My goal in supporting folks with a history of trauma is to develop tools and skills support emotional regulation and management, develop a relationship with their bodies and gain a deeper understanding of how trauma affects the mind and body.

Maria Christopoulos
Registered Psychotherapist, M.A., M.Sc., RP
Trauma and PTSD can occur when unexpected significant life events occur. Behaviours exhibited by those suffering from trauma can become affected for some time after an event has occurred. It is important to note changes in thoughts and behaviours. Therapeutic interventions can help identify triggering thoughts and behaviours, how they affect emotional well being and provide positive coping to help alleviate some of these symptoms.

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
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.
