Many people carry wounds from the past—sometimes from a single painful event, and other times from ongoing stress, loss, or difficult relationships. These experiences can leave lasting imprints on the body and mind. Trauma informed counselling offers a gentle, compassionate approach to healing that honours your story without re-traumatizing you.
What Is Trauma Informed Counselling?
This type of counselling is based on the understanding that trauma affects the nervous system, emotions, and even how safe we feel in our relationships. A trauma informed therapist works with care and sensitivity, creating an environment where you feel respected and in control. They emphasize safety, choice, and collaboration so you can move at a pace that feels right for you.
How It Helps
Through trauma informed counselling, you can:
- Understand how trauma shows up in your thoughts, emotions, and body
- Learn grounding and regulation tools to manage overwhelm
- Rebuild trust in yourself and others
- Reduce anxiety, depression, and stress symptoms
- Begin to write a new story that feels empowering rather than limiting
Healing doesn’t mean erasing the past—it means reclaiming your sense of safety, power, and possibility. Trauma informed counselling in Vancouver can be a meaningful step toward resilience, balance, and a renewed sense of hope.
You don’t have to navigate this journey alone. Trauma informed counselling can help you feel more grounded, connected, and supported as you move forward. If this feels like the right time, reach out to schedule a consultation—I’d be glad to walk alongside you in your healing process.
