Trauma Focused Therapists in Edmonton, AB

Welcome! You have made the first (and often scariest and most challenging) step toward starting therapy: finding a therapist! Whether you are looking to improve your mental health, tackle some tricky issues in your life that seem to keep you in a cycle, or just want to talk to someone who can offer you support, you are in the right place. Rooted in a client-centred approach, I offer a supportive, nonjudgmental, and, at times, humorous environment to facilitate optimal growth for my clients.

Do you struggle with challenges such as anxiety, depression, or navigating difficult relationships that affect your day-to-day life and relationships? Maybe you feel overwhelmed by the thought of living up to your family obligations and want to do things differently but don’t want to “bring shame to the family”? Are you questioning if life could be better but not sure where to start? If this feels familiar to you, then you’ve come to the right place. Helping you heal and thrive is what we’re all about. Welcome to Tulia, where we specialize in helping people recover from trauma.

Food is so much more than fuel. Food is a way we express love, appreciation, and empathy. Food provides comfort and sparks conversation. It ties us to our memories, our cultures, and our family. So, when we are struggling with eating, we are missing out on more than nutrients, we are missing out on opportunities for connection. This connection goes both ways. When our child is struggling to eat, we as a family are missing out on the opportunity to connect and enjoy each other. My role is to support you and your family regain this connection through psychotherapy and feeding therapy.

Many of us struggle with self-doubt and inconfidence. It's like we’re carrying around an invisible weight that holds us back from feeling fulfilled in our relationships, work, and personal life. Core misbeliefs, often shaped by early life experiences, have a deep impact on our self-perception, choices, and behaviours. With more self-acceptance and by realizing your own truth, you can move past the walls that are impacting how you feel and think, and proceed with more confidence and compassion. It's a journey, but with each step you get closer to living a life that's true to who you really are.
