Trauma Therapy
Trauma focused therapy recognizes and facilitates understanding of how traumatic experiences can cause mental and physical injury.
Trauma can result in physical and mental injury. This can result in a person feeling "stuck" and reliving the events resulting in a decrease in quality of life and sometimes manifestation of physical symptoms.
Trauma treatment at Carlton Counselling includes drawing from a variety of evidence based interventions and trainings such as:
Accelerated Resolution Therapy (ART)
Narrative Therapy
Poly-Vagal Theory
Certified Trauma Training
*Trauma therapy does not require the retelling of specific details*
Accelerated Resolution Therapy
Accelerated Resolution Therapy, also known as ART, works to replace the negative images in the mind with positive images of the client’s choosing. This results in decreased symptoms of trauma, often with only 3 meetings required.

Narrative Therapy
A respectful, collaborative approach putting the person as the expert in their own life and separating the person from the problem. Drawing out one's inherent skills, strengths and abilities to understand and create new narratives and understanding of self.
PolyVagal Theory
Our autonomic nervous system is all about safety. Polyvagal Theory offers precise science to understand how the vagus nerve, which connects the brain and other body parts, relates to our human connection with one another. Providing therapy through a Polyvagal lens, supports clients in re-patterning the ways their autonomic nervous systems operates.
