Therapy provides a safe space to help you process trauma so you can move forward with self-forgiveness, increased confidence and renewed hope. Learn to manage  intrusive thoughts, flashbacks, anxiety, insomnia, substance use, social withdrawal and other common cognitive and behavioural PTSD/C-PTSD symptoms.

Emotional imbalance  can cause intense distress, inability to manage triggers, severe mood fluctuations, and feelings of guilt, shame, helplessness. Behavioural aspects like engaging in harmful/risky behaviours, self-isolation, and cognitive aspects like intrusive negative thoughts and worry are considered when treating emotional disturbances. Our approach focuses on building emotional stability, acceptance,  and mindfulness to treat the trauma and learn skills to manage negative reactions and behaviours in a constructive manner, hence improving relationships and trust in oneself and others.

We employ a multi-focal approach to help tackle the complex and unique symptom presentations in people living with PTSD/C-PTSD symptoms.  Under the guidance and care of a trained trauma-informed therapist,  we explore and process the trauma to diminish the power of triggers, build resilience, and alleviate detrimental coping behaviours. As well we seek to improve personal strengths, confidence and interpersonal skills, in a compassionate, non-judgmental and safe setting.

Dealing with life transitions can be challenging and overwhelming. Overcome a self-defeating mindset, gain inner strength and clarity and move forward with acceptance, building a functional life, positive self-identity and enjoy greater resilience and mental peace.       

Improve conflict and negative patterns by learning positive communication and interpersonal strategies that are uniquely designed for your situation and are based on decades of scientific research. With proven strategies, we help you reestablish more peaceful, harmonious, fulfilling relationships with those who matter most to you.
