Who & How We Help

Resolve Trauma Collective offers tailored solutions for individuals, couples, families and organizations to transform trauma.

Our Approach

We Resolve Trauma from the body-up, helping you Transform Stuckness into Safety, and Conflict into Clarity and Connection.

Our Diverse, yet close-knit network of therapist members support each other as a team. Each maintains their own independent practices while aligning on the same core values of Trauma-Informed, Attachment-based, and Relationally-centred care, and regularly receiving group and individual supervision for continuous quality improvement. We specialize in delivering, and providing specialized supervision and training in, trauma-informed, body-oriented, brain-based approaches (EMDR, IFS, Somatic, other alternatives to talk therapy) to help clients release and transform "stuck" trauma in the body and nervous system. We also choose therapists that are exceptional in their ability to collaborate with others and advocate for clients—who actively self-reflect and question oppressive systems and practices, and demonstrate continued work towards reconciliation.

Resolve has therapists, consultants, and supervisors who are BIPOC, LGBTQ2SIA+, Multi-Faith/Spiritual, Neurodiverse, and multi-lingual, including Punjabi, Hindi, Cantonese, Mandarin, and Tagalog. We also have a select number of therapists who specialize in seeing children (play therapy), and couples and families (EFT, Gottman).

As an experienced Relationship and Trauma therapist, Richard Tatomir, MA, CCC (Canadian Certified Counsellor) is Founder and Lead Clinical Supervisor, with over a decade of expertise ranging from Speaking/Advocacy work, Trauma therapy, Family/Systems therapy, Clinical Supervision, and Research/Evaluation, having worked in university, healthcare, government, and private settings across Canada, the US, and UK. In addition to providing Clinical Supervision, Leadership, Development and Evaluation of the Collective and its services, Richard is a Critical Psychotherapist, and strong advocate towards universal mental health access and harm reduction. He speaks on these topics, and many others, with his colleague Glenn Wood, via their podcast, Deliberating Practice.
