My goal is to help you feel more empowered and supported in managing your health journey.

Mia Klassen
Licensed Professional Counsellor, MPCC #3875, CT #2438, LSCC
Living with chronic pain or illness doesn't just hurt your body—it isolates you, shrinks your world, and makes you feel invisible to those who can't understand. I see you, and I know how the physical suffering entangles with grief, frustration, identity loss, and fear. Together, we'll work toward emotional freedom even when physical limitations remain. You'll learn how others have found meaning and peace despite ongoing pain, discover tools for nervous system regulation that reduce suffering's grip, and reclaim agency over your inner life. Healing isn't about fixing what can't be fixed—it's about living fully despite it. You're not alone anymore.

Monarch Psychology
Psychologist, R Psych, RSW
Free matching calls available to help match you with the best therapist for your unique needs.
In addition to providing a safe space to share your experience of illness, counselling can help you to:
- adjust and adapt to symptoms
- alleviate pain
- manage your energy
- grieve losses
- explore changes in identity
- communicate needs and boundaries
- manage stress and emotional dysregulation that can exacerbate symptoms
- deal with interpersonal challenges
- manage anxiety about the future
- address trauma related to your illness or pain
- develop lifestyle habits to support your mind/body
- find meaning and fulfillment in your life
Additionally, research has shown that there is a link between adverse childhood experiences (ACEs) and chronic illness/pain later in life, so it may be appropriate to address past trauma and its resulting impact on the brain in order to help with the management of chronic illness.

Teo Counselling Services
Registered Psychotherapist, MACP, CCC, RPq
Chronic pain and illness can often be intertwined with past trauma, as our bodies can "keep the score" of emotional and physical stress. I specialize in helping clients manage chronic pain and illness by exploring how unresolved trauma may contribute to their physical symptoms. Through Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), I guide clients in processing traumatic memories, reducing their emotional impact, and helping the body release stored tension. Alongside EMDR, I use mindfulness and cognitive behavioral techniques to empower clients to regain control over their health and well-being. Together, we’ll work on alleviating the emotional burden of chronic pain, promoting healing, and enhancing quality of life.

Kate Hollowell Sheldon
Psychologist, MC, R.Psych.
I used to work at a chronic pain clinic early in my career. Throughout the years, I have also worked with clients who are diagnosed with terminal health conditions or they experienced life changing difficulties with surgery or injury. Sometimes I utilize EMDR for pain management and I can teach the client how to use tapping to alleviate some of their pain flareups or give them a break from the chronic pain they are experiencing. This topic also involves some grief and loss work with a client around their physical abilities and their identity. In the case of a client who has a terminal illness, we work on how they want to live their life with meaning and purpose.

Meera Duncan
Counsellor/Therapist, Honorary Doctorate Psychology, Counselling Therapist,Clinical Counselling Hypnotherapist, & Author
Are you struggling with chronic pain or illness?
Clinical Hypnotherapy is proven to have dramatic results in reducing pain levels. I utilize clinical hypnosis and hypnotherapy, tapping, counselling, and cognitive behavioural therapy with clients to reduce the physical and emotional toll this pain creates. I myself was severely injured in an elevator accident in 1998 and accidentally discovered hypnosis after a decade of debilitating severe chronic pain levels. Hypnosis changed everything for me which is why I became a Clinical Hypnotherapist. If you are ready to begin your journey of healing please contact me today.

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.
