Trauma and PTSD
Nicole Marek
Psychologist, Psychologist/Psychotherapist, OPQ
Research has revealed that when a traumatic event occurs, the emotional reaction can get stored in our bodies. When this happens we call it trauma. I have trained in many approaches to foster trauma recovery and will use one or more in session. I like to apply Somatic Experiencing to connect to and release trauma held in the body, and I use Internal Family Systems to identify and help parts of ourselves whose protective function is no longer necessary or optimal. Trauma work is lengthy and challenging, but I believe it is necessary if we want to be free of the control of our past.

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.

Trauma and PTSD
Nave Nijjar, Hear to Heal Counselling Services
Registered Psychotherapist, MA, RP, CCC
Do you find yourself reliving your trauma event over and over? Do you often feel overwhelmed or on edge? Experiencing or witnessing trauma can be a transformative experience. Any sudden and unexpected event that negatively impacts your well-being and sense of security can lead to difficulties in coping after the event. You may constantly feel anger, irritation, or a general sense of overwhelm due to the aftereffects of a more recent traumatic event (or even one that happened long ago).

Trauma and PTSD
Rachel Delos Santos
Registered Psychotherapist, MACP, RP(Qualifying)
When addressing trauma and PTSD, we lean towards Internal Family Systems (IFS) to provide a safe and nurturing space for all parts of yourself that work hard to protect you from the pain and hurt caused by your trauma. Together, we will increase your awareness of these parts' roles and their efforts to shield you, helping you understand their intentions and functions. We will focus on healing the exiled parts that hold the pain and burden of the trauma through a transformative process. You will be guided to experience and hold this pain in a safe, compassionate, and non-traumatizing way. This journey will be marked by compassion and courage, allowing you to connect with these parts from a place of understanding and strength. As we progress, we will help the parts engaged in extreme protective roles learn to trust you and your internal system again, allowing them to relax and find balance in their roles. This holistic approach aims to foster healing and integration, helping you move forward with resilience and inner harmony.
