Gracey Psychotherapy Trauma Clinic has been helping people in Abbotsford heal from complex trauma for over 12 years, and that focus is what makes them easy to recommend. Psychologist Dr. Gracey and her team specialise in trauma-focused therapy, including post-traumatic stress, childhood attachment wounds, and adult survivors of abuse. They are known locally for combining evidence-based methods with a calm, welcoming clinic environment on South Fraser Way.

Their core services include individual trauma therapy, EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitisation and Reprocessing), Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) adapted for trauma, and sensorimotor psychotherapy. They offer 60- and 90-minute sessions, and a structured 12-week trauma recovery group that treats up to eight participants per cohort. They also provide assessment services, including trauma history interviews and standardised measures like the PCL-5 for PTSD symptoms. Online therapy is available for clients outside Abbotsford or during times when in-person sessions are not possible.

How they work is practical and person-centred. Initial appointments begin with a thorough intake that maps symptoms, triggers, and safety plans. From there Dr. Gracey and clinicians set measurable goals and use session-by-session tracking so progress is clear. The clinic space is a quiet 900-square-foot suite with soft lighting and private therapy rooms, chosen to help clients feel grounded. The team includes a registered psychologist, two supervised provisional psychologists, and an administrative coordinator who handles referrals and insurance paperwork.

People choose Gracey Psychotherapy because they want a trauma specialist who explains what treatment will look like, provides concrete tools to manage flashbacks and anxiety, and follows through with accessible aftercare resources. They are embedded in the Abbotsford community, receiving referrals from local family doctors, shelters, and community mental health programmes.
