Fostering Safety, Healing, and Growth: Empowering You to Find Balance After Trauma

Healing Invisible Wounds: Specialized Trauma Treatment in Mississauga & Online Across Ontario

Trauma and Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) can leave you feeling hyper-alert, disconnected, or constantly reliving the past. For many across Mississauga, the GTA, and Peel Region, unhealed trauma impacts every facet of life, from personal relationships to professional stability. At Inner Wellness Psychotherapy, we understand that true healing requires patience, safety, and specialized clinical expertise. Our trauma and PTSD treatment uses a Trauma-Informed Care (TIC) framework to help you move beyond survival mode and toward integration, peace, and control.

Our Commitment: The Five Pillars of Trauma-Informed Care

We utilize an evidence-based framework to ensure your journey is safe and respectful. Our practice is built on these five core values:

  • Safety: We prioritize your physical and emotional safety, creating a grounded, judgment-free environment.
  • Trustworthiness: We maintain clear boundaries and clinical transparency to rebuild trust.
  • Choice: You are in the driver’s seat, you decide the pace of therapy and which memories we process.
  • Collaboration: We work with you, blending your lived experience with our specialized clinical expertise.
  • Empowerment: Our goal is to help you rediscover your inner strength and move toward a “thriver” mindset.

Evidence-Based Trauma Modalities: EMDR, IFS, and DBT

To help you build resilience and find lasting relief, we utilize research-backed approaches tailored to your unique history:

  • EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing): A gold-standard tool for desensitizing traumatic memories and re-patterning the brain’s response to triggers.
  • Internal Family Systems (IFS): Exploring and healing different “parts” of your personality to release extreme beliefs and wounded inner child parts.
  • Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) Skills: Developing robust emotional regulation and distress tolerance to manage intense triggers.
  • Trauma-Focused CBT: Identifying and shifting the core beliefs and “stuck points” that trauma leaves behind.
  • Somatic Integration & Polyvagal Theory: Releasing the “fight-flight-freeze” responses stored in the nervous system to help you feel safe in your body again.

We provide expert, survivor-centered care for diverse traumatic experiences in Mississauga and online across Ontario:
