Shannon MacGregor
Counsellor/Therapist, RTC, MTC, CLC
Domestic Abuse or Violence is any act carried out with the intention of physically or emotionally harming another person who is in relationship. The purpose of all abuse is to control the victim’s behavior by inducing fear to gain power and control. If you have been subjected to abuse in your life, your nervous system is likely still activated and we can work through your trauma responses to help you self regulate and manage your relationship with the abuser.

Daniel Klassen
Psychologist, Provisional Psychologist (P7619) in Alberta, Registered Clinical Counsellor (RCC 19147) for the rest of Canada
Unfortunately, domestic abuse and violence is more common than it should be. It begins when one person in a close relationship becomes disgruntled with another, or a situation, and starts mistreating another. It starts innocently enough, with words or behaviors that are disrespectful and maybe a bit cutting. If this behavior is not addressed or resolved, it can escalate and become more severe. Hurt inflicted by a more powerful person is often transferred to the less powerful, leading to confusion, fear, anger, and a decrease in well-being for everyone involved. Serious abuse, violence, and even torture or murder can result from this escalating cycle. As a youth, Daniel was an innocent bystander in his own home, where unchecked anger and violence led to his hospitalization. There is a madness to this cycle, rooted in emotional pain. Daniel works to unravel the hurt and confusion, promote understanding, and create a path to freedom and possibility for all involved.
