At DaVinci Wellness Centre, we understand how trauma and post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) can deeply impact every area of your life—from your ability to feel safe and calm to how you connect with others. That’s why we offer compassionate, professional psychological care designed to help you heal from past experiences, regain emotional stability, and reclaim your life. Whether you’re new to therapy or have tried treatment in the past, our tailored approach meets you where you are and guides you at a pace that feels right for you.
An Overview of What Trauma and PTSD Are
Trauma is your body and mind’s response to a deeply distressing or disturbing experience. This could be something sudden like an accident, a violent event, or the loss of a loved one, or something prolonged, such as emotional abuse or childhood neglect. PTSD is a condition that can develop after trauma, where the brain gets stuck in “survival mode.” This can lead to flashbacks, anxiety, emotional numbness, and difficulty concentrating or sleeping.
At DaVinci Wellness Centre, we provide a supportive environment to help you work through these experiences, reduce symptoms, and move forward with strength and clarity.
The Benefits of Trauma and PTSD Treatment
Our trauma and PTSD treatments are not only about relieving symptoms—they’re about helping you rebuild trust in yourself and feel like “you” again.
Feel Less Anxious
Therapy can help calm the body and mind, so you don’t feel so on edge all the time.
Sleep Better at Night
Trauma can interrupt your sleep. Treatment helps restore restful sleep, so you wake up feeling more refreshed.
Learn Healthy Coping Tools
You’ll be equipped with easy-to-use techniques to manage stress, anxiety, or overwhelming thoughts when they show up.
Improve Relationships
As you heal, you may find it easier to open up, trust others, and strengthen the relationships that matter most.
Feel More in Control
Instead of being ruled by fear, sadness, or anger, you’ll learn how to understand and manage your emotions with confidence.
The Treatment Areas for Trauma and PTSD
At DaVinci Wellness Centre, we treat a wide range of trauma-related challenges, including:
- Childhood trauma and neglect
- Abuse (emotional, physical, or sexual)
- Accident or injury trauma
- Loss and grief
- Military-related PTSD
- First responder trauma
- Workplace trauma or bullying
- Complex PTSD (ongoing traumatic events)
No matter the cause, your experiences are valid, and we are here to help you process them in a safe, non-judgmental space.
Who Are Good Candidates for Trauma and PTSD Treatment?
You may be a good candidate for trauma or PTSD treatment if you frequently feel anxious, irritable, or on edge; experience flashbacks, nightmares, or distressing memories; or struggle with sleep, concentration, or mood changes. Many individuals also find themselves avoiding people, places, or situations that remind them of their trauma, or feeling emotionally numb and disconnected from others. If you’re tired of trying to “just get over it” on your own, professional support can make a meaningful difference. At DaVinci Wellness Centre, our trauma and PTSD services are available to both adults and teens who are ready to take the first step toward healing—no matter how recent or distant the trauma may be.

Frequently Asked Questions
1. How do I know if I have PTSD or just stress?
PTSD is more than everyday stress. It usually involves ongoing symptoms like flashbacks, nightmares, or emotional numbness after a traumatic event. If symptoms persist for more than a month or interfere with daily life, it’s best to speak with a professional.
2. Will I have to talk about everything in detail?
Only when you’re ready. Our therapists go at your pace. The goal is to make you feel safe and supported, not overwhelmed.
3. How long does trauma therapy take?
It varies depending on the person and type of trauma. Some people feel better in a few months, while others benefit from longer-term support. We’ll work with you to find what fits best.
4. Is trauma therapy covered by insurance?
Many extended health plans cover psychological services. Contact your provider for details, or reach out to us and we’ll help you understand your options.
