Trauma and PTSD
Donna Wigmore Counselling Services
Counsellor/Therapist, CCC, CT
Trauma and PTSD are now understood to be much more common than previously thought. The new research, in particular, by Bessel van der Kolk, has said that trauma is “not the story of something that happened back then, but the current imprint of that pain, horror, and fear living inside [the individual].” These events leave us stuck in a state of helplessness and terror, and results in a change in how we perceive danger. So together we will work to process and release that trauma, emotionally and physically.

Joshua Lewis
Registered Psychotherapist, RP, CT
Our traumatic experiences are survival responses that can become embedded in our bodies, brains, and nervous systems impacting our lives long after the original trauma was experienced. How these trauma experiences were responded to (or not responded to originally) can also profoundly inform the ongoing experience of living with trauma. My approach unites techniques from leading, evidence-based methods including Sensorimotor Psychotherapy, Internal Family Systems, mindfulness and psychodynamic psychotherapy to address overwhelming emotions like shame, anger, anxiety, fear, and depression.
