Trauma Counsellor
Your Past Matters, But It Doesn’t Get the Final Word
Trauma isn’t just about what happened, it’s about how it lives in your body and shapes how you feel, connect, and cope. As a trauma counsellor offering online support across Canada, I create a space where you can start to feel safe again, on your own terms.
Whether it’s childhood trauma, relationship trauma, or experiences you’ve carried quietly for years, trauma counselling can help you begin to heal without having to relive it all.
Understanding Trauma
Trauma can leave lasting effects – sometimes obvious, sometimes deeply hidden. It can show up as anxiety, emotional numbness, people-pleasing, flashbacks, hypervigilance, or difficulty trusting others. You might feel like you’re always on edge, or like parts of you are stuck in the past.
Whether you’re seeking therapy for childhood trauma, relationship trauma counselling, or support after a recent experience, healing is possible. Through trauma-informed care, we’ll work gently, with your safety and choice always at the centre.
How I Can Support You Through Trauma
I approach trauma with sensitivity, care, and a deep respect for your story. There is no pressure to revisit memories before you're ready. Whether you’re just beginning to explore trauma or have done years of work already, I offer trauma therapy in Toronto that’s tailored to your experiences, your goals, and your pace.
A Trauma-Informed, Client-Led Approach
Your comfort and consent guide the work. I won’t push you to share more than you’re ready to. Instead, we’ll build trust and safety first, allowing healing to unfold with care.
Mind-Body Awareness in Therapy
Trauma is stored not just in memory but in the body. Using gentle somatic strategies alongside talk therapy, we’ll help your nervous system feel less reactive and more regulated, one step at a time.
Flexible, Individual Trauma Counseling
No two people carry trauma the same way. Whether you're looking for childhood trauma counselling or support with the impact of difficult relationships, I’ll tailor our work to fit what you need most right now.

Got a Question?
What does a trauma counsellor do?
A trauma counsellor helps you process painful experiences in a safe, supportive space. Through trauma therapy, you can work through past events, manage triggers, and build coping strategies.
What happens in a trauma therapy session?
Each session is unique to you. I will help you explore your feelings, develop coping skills, and gradually process traumatic memories at a pace that feels safe. Sessions in trauma therapy are always guided by your comfort level.
How do therapists heal trauma?
Therapists don’t “heal” trauma – your mind and body do. A trauma therapist provides tools and a supportive space for processing emotions, changing unhelpful patterns, and rebuilding a sense of safety and trust.
