Did you know that 63% of adults in Canada report being exposed to a potentially traumatic event at some point in their life, with the number climbing to 67% among adult women?

Join us for the May session of Between Us on Thursday the 28th at 7 PM and listen in as clinical social workers Kristen Bassett-Berkiw, MSW, RSW, and Sesu Moyo, MSW, RSW, lead us in exploring how trauma is stored in the body, and how past experiences can shape safety, intimacy, and connection. Drawing from real-life patterns in women navigating work, motherhood, and relationships, this presentation offers a trauma-informed lens to understand how early experiences influence adult responses, and provides compassionate, practical ways to rebuild trust and connection within yourself and with others.
