Healing After Trauma
PTSD Counselling for Adults
A Personalized Path to Healing
Specialized Counselling for PTSD
At Catalyst Mind Center, we recognize how debilitating PTSD can be, often stemming from traumatic events like accidents, violence, or military experiences. Our registered psychotherapists offer specialized, empathetic counselling and therapy to help you navigate this change with confidence. We focus on strengthening resilience, guiding you toward reclaiming safety, stability, and a sense of control in your daily life.
PTSD manifests differently for everyone, and recovery requires a personalized path. Our skilled therapists utilize evidence-based techniques to process traumatic memories, reduce hypervigilance, and rebuild trust, while addressing co-occurring issues like sleep disturbances or emotional numbness. We emphasize holistic healing to foster long-term well-being, incorporating strategies for triggers and flashbacks to empower sustainable progress.
Common PTSD Symptoms We Address
Intrusive memories or flashbacks
Nightmares or sleep disturbances
Hypervigilance or exaggerated startle response
Avoidance of triggers or emotional numbing
Irritability, anger, or concentration issues
Feelings of guilt, shame, or detachment
