As someone who has experienced cPTSD, this is very close to my heart and I have been using hypnotherapy to deal with trauma a lot and the results are really great. Overall, I practice psychology with a holistic perspective, focusing on the whole person, heart, mind, body, and soul.

Penelope (Penny) Yen
Psychologist, BA (Hons), MACP, Registered Provisional Psychologist
My therapy style is one of candid compassion. I will wholeheartedly support you and keep your best interests at the forefront without coddling you or feeding you BS.
I integrate several modalities depending on the presenting issue and who you are as a person. I often draw from Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), which I like to call CBT for people who care about why we do the things we do. I have also completed several other trauma-focused trainings designed to relieve the effects of trauma.

Kate Hollowell Sheldon
Psychologist, MC, R.Psych.
My career is based on assessing and treating trauma and PTSD. I work with this on a daily basis in the correctional services system and within the community. Trauma can be experienced in many different ways and not everyone expresses it the same. As well, trauma can be suppressed and can come up decades after the event took place. We work from a bottom up approach to create safety in the body and to work with the nervous system before any processing occurs. I have worked with men and women who have experienced trauma as part of their work (military, first responders etc.) and within relationships (abuse), or with natural disaster (floods). Regardless of the nature of the trauma, we can work on moving through it so it does not affect so much of your life in such an acute way.

Andrea Laznik Amit
Registered Psychotherapist, RP, MA in clinical psychology
If you experienced abuse, neglect or indifference in your childhood, or unusual events later in life- they affect us extensively. We can explore your attachment patterns created as a result of that and the ruptures created when unusual events happen in our life. This will help you regain control of how they affect you in the present.

A ship does not sail with yesterday's wind.
-Louis L'Amour
The collection of memories we each have become a part of our unique human experience. Sometimes past events that were scary, troubling, or traumatic become stuck in our minds and influence our thoughts, emotions, and behaviours in the present. EMDR is one of the ways we can help understand how the past can affect the present. By working together to gently process the old stuff that is getting in the way, healing and growth can occur.

Sophia Kopelow
Counsellor/Therapist, MA, RCC
I define trauma as anything that overwhelms our nervous system's ability to cope. It's not only about the event or experience itself, but about how one perceives it. Those with a highly sensitive nervous system will likely be more impacted, and I'm passionate about empowering clients to feel more whole, integrated and accepting of themselves. My trauma- informed approach involves prioritizing safety and trust by allowing clients to have full autonomy and collaborate in the therapeutic process. I use EMDR therapy to help reprocess traumatic memories that might be keeping you stuck, and integrate a mixture of cognitive and somatic approaches to help you heal. I offer in-person, virtual or walk and talk therapy. I would love to hear from you—head to my website to book your free 20-minute consultation.

Trudi Jane Wyatt
Psychologist, MA, Registered Provisional Psychologist (AB), RP (ON), CT, CCC, CCTP
Trauma is often viewed as an “event” or “experience” like a terrible accident, abuse, a disaster, a death, etc. And it is a common view that the event or experience has to be considered “big” like these examples. And while such events and experiences can definitely be traumatic, other views expand on this, such as with the thinking that:
>Trauma is not an event or an experience as such, it’s what’s stored in the brain and the body. (There is a book called “The Body Keeps the Score” by Dr. Bessel Van Der Kolk describing this.)
>“Traumatic experiences” don’t have to be so “big”, and what is traumatic for you might not be traumatic for someone else, depending on things like if someone is more sensitive than someone else.
Also, sometimes events enacted, witnessed, or experienced can be impactful because they run counter to your sense of morality and ethics, and these can be difficult to recover from too.
While some people spontaneously recover from trauma over time with the love and support of family and friends, others may suffer from effects of lasting trauma, which can vary greatly from person to person but might include living with deep emotional pain, avoiding reminders of the event or experience, feeling depressed or nervous, feeling like the event is still happening, feeling very angry or guilty, having difficulty sleeping, judgments of self or others, or other effects, long after the actual experience has passed.
In these circumstances, the support, guidance, and assistance of a counsellor can often be helpful in lessening the impact of the event or events on your life in the here and now, such as by helping you find healthy ways to cope with the lingering effects of the trauma, though certainly the road can sometimes be difficult.
If you feel you are living with the effects of trauma and are wanting a more satisfying and values-directed life, I might be able to assist.

Jayne Batten
Counsellor/Therapist, MSc, CT, MPCC, MBACP
Trauma is the emotional wound that is created in response to a deeply distressing or disturbing event such as the loss of a loved one, or perhaps suffering an accident, abuse or surviving a natural disaster. Equally trauma can result from the drip, drip, drip of negative or abusive circumstances outside our control, that impact our sense of safety, trust and ‘okay-ness’ in the world around us. The emotional impact of trauma can result in long term physical and mental symptoms that make it difficult to function in our everyday lives. It wreaks havoc with our relationships with others. Depression and anxiety very often result from the experience of trauma. Talking therapy can help us to validate our experiences and the feelings, or denial of feelings, that go hand in hand with trauma. In time we can hopefully reframe what causes us to suffer and develop skills to cope, so that we can move forward in our lives.

Melissa Huang
Registered Psychotherapist, (Qualifying), MA
Trauma doesn't stay in the past; it lives in the body, in the nightmares and flashbacks, in the hypervigilance that never lets you fully rest, in the numbness that keeps everyone at arm's length. What happened to you was not your fault, and how you've survived makes sense. You'll find a warm, nonjudgmental space here where safety and trust come first, always, and where we move only at your pace. Drawing on approaches like EMDR, the goal isn't just to manage symptoms, it's to help your mind and body finally understand the danger has passed, so you can genuinely reconnect with yourself and the people you love. Together we'll work toward feeling more grounded, safer in your own skin, and more equipped to live fully in the present.

Kevin Ruddell
Psychologist, M.A., R. Psych
Trauma can be any event that as a perpetual negative impact on an individual. A common outcome from those that have been traumatizes is PTSD whereby individual re-experience feels of fear and anxiety as a result of the traumatic event. By processing the events and learning how to survive beyond the trauma we can find new ways to thrive in life rather than just survive.

Mark Giesbrecht, MA, CCC, RCC - Psychotherapist
Counsellor/Therapist, MA, CT, CCC, RCC
Just because something very difficult and negatively impact-full happened to you doesn't necessarily mean you experienced trauma. Trauma is the bodies way of telling us we have not resolved a past event or period of extreme stress over time. There are steps you can take to change how past events continue to impact you today. Freedom from the past is possible.

Calgary's economy is closely tied to the energy sector, making residents particularly vulnerable to the psychological effects of economic downturns and job uncertainty. The city has a young, ambitious professional demographic with growing mental health awareness, and therapists here frequently address anxiety, burnout, relationship stress, and career-related identity challenges. Calgary also has a growing and diverse immigrant population, with many therapists offering culturally informed care for newcomers navigating settlement stress and identity transitions. Alberta Health Services provides a foundation of public mental health care, with a substantial private practice community serving the inner city and surrounding communities.
