About ATTCH

After providing counselling services for over 20 years Lori Gill, founder of ATTCH, has observed a consistent need for attachment and trauma-focused therapy. Trauma impacts all areas, and often underlies addictions, mental health, and other adaptations.


ATTCH was the first integrative trauma specific treatment centre of its kind in Canada. Since opening in 2013 the model used at ATTCH has been sought after by professionals, organizations and communities due to the lasting gains observed with our Integrative Trauma and Attachment Treatment Model (ITATM) ®. In addition to providing clinical services ATTCH specializes in training other therapists and organizations to become certified trauma specialists or certified trauma informed organizations using our Integrative Trauma and Attachment Treatment Model (ITATM) ®. This contributes to our vision of creating a more trauma-informed society.

The Attachment and Trauma Treatment Centre for Healing (ATTCH) provides quality trauma and attachment assessment and treatment, clinical supervision, evidence based and evidence informed trauma training (clinical services now provided through Lori Gill Psychotherapy). Services are available for all ages, including early intervention/ prevention supports for young mothers or individuals who may be at an increased risk for future difficulty.

We recognize the importance of harmonizing the mind and body to create an experience of calm. As a result, we are thrilled to offer holistic wellness services evidenced to regulate the mind and body simultaneously. A few of our services include meditation, mindfulness, somatic / sensory regulation therapies, creative therapies such as art, play, and body movement, neurofeedback, biofeedback, yoga (trauma-focused, restorative, and Kripalu), and chakra work.

Our services also focus on early intervention and healthy attachment relationships providing attachment enhancing services, parent coaching, formal trauma assessments, and evidence-based treatment focusing on structured sensory intervention for all ages. Our child and youth therapists have completed Theraplay® training and we are pleased to offer Marshak Interaction Method assessments as well as Theraplay informed family therapy sessions. Additionally ATTCH also provides clinical supervision, consultation, and training to help organizations implement evidence-based trauma-informed treatment and prevent compassion fatigue and vicarious trauma.
