Somatic Therapists in Camrose, AB

When clients come to therapy, I think what so many are searching for is hope. Hope that change is possible and that things won't be like this forever. Whether you are navigating grief, life transitions, divorce, depression, anxiety, trauma, past emotional neglect, dysfunctional family dynamics, relationship conflict, parenting challenges or a general feeling of dissatisfaction and emptiness in your life, my goal is to help you connect to hope and recognize that things do improve. I aim to be a lifeline for you as you face vulnerabilities, strong emotions and difficult obstacles.

Daytime availability only - I provide support for adults around anxiety, depression, life transitions, stress, boundaries, relationship challenges, trauma, sexual abuse/assault, and difficult childhoods. I also provide support for partners and supporters of people who have experienced sexual abuse/assault. Many people I work with want to live more fulfilling and meaningful lives -This can come up in their relationships with others, in their relationships with themselves, and/or in their professional/educational lives. I love talking about self-worth and supporting people to feel better about themselves.

Do you long to connect with your authentic Self and heal parts of you that are feeling burdened, disconnected and alone? Would you like to safely explore your habitual ways of thinking and feeling, and soften the limiting beliefs that might prevent you from feeling fully alive? Have you endured traumatic experiences, developmental or inter-relational wounding, that is still stored in your body and is impacting your relationships, and your trust in life? If you are struggling with PTSD, anxiety or overwhelm, and feel a lot of stress in your body, somatic psychotherapy can invite healing and bring more ease and freedom.

Do you feel trapped in life? Are you facing difficulties with your relationships or at work? Do you need support for mental health conditions such as depression and anxiety, addictions, or trauma? I am here to help you tap into your resilience and overcome your challenges. I am a culturally and spiritually sensitive therapist and I have worked with children, couples, and families from over 30 countries. My past clients have come from all walks of life: people in a variety of professions, ranging from healthcare to education to finance, college students, immigrants, and refugees.

My approach is in holistic, transformative change that is tailored to your needs, supported by clinical research. I aim to create a refuge for you and I to partner in your desired change - where we can work together to navigate difficult experiences, tap into your inner wisdom, and develop personalized strategies for growth. Additionally, I am mindful of and attend to the impacts of culture, which is informed by my BFA in Critical and Cultural Practices, the culturally responsive and socially just (CRSJ) counselling model, and Indigenous Cultural Safety Training.

I provide a safe place to process, heal and change, with an open, warm and practical approach to counselling. Sometimes clients jokingly say, 'I have issues'. Well, we all have 'issues'. When these issues become overwhelming, I help you gain the skills necessary to move forward. I think expressing both "negative" and "positive" emotions are important to well-being. I consider therapy a success when you leave with increased clarity about the issues that you are dealing with, feel hopeful about addressing the challenges holding you back, and feel confident practicing new skills that you have added to your personal skill set.

Hey! I'm Christopher, a Registered Provisional Psychologist. I work with teens, adults, couples and families dealing with a variety of concerns. I value flexibility, a deep connection and fun. I strive to meet you wherever you are in life's journey, whether that's diving deep and wading in the dark or if you're feeling stuck and need to untangle the mess. I aim to listen wholeheartedly and offer a safe, nonjudgmental space where you can be authentic. Lastly, I believe the journey is about progress (no matter how small) over perfection, which can be made a lot smoother when we are able to exhale and share a few laughs along the way.

Hi I’m Jamie. Are you feeling overwhelmed, exhausted, alone? Let's navigate your feelings together. In today’s world, I believe that we too often focus on what we believe our weaknesses to be and ignore what makes us unique or acknowledge that it is okay to not be okay. We will focus on these pieces through our sessions. Everyone’s journey to wellness is deeply personal and I hope to create a realistic path for movement forward.

I am available for counselling across Canada as a Certified Canadian Counsellor, either in-person in AB, or virtually. I work with individuals, families and couples in different life stages offering supportive, culturally inclusive therapy. My focus is on the wellbeing of the client(s) as we work towards your goals in life and wellbeing. I use a combination of therapy modalities to help and heal challenges with somatic experiencing, thought patterns, behaviours, emotions, trauma and learned patterns that keep you from moving forward in life. I have lived in Canada for 20 years and I speak fluent Finnish and English.

I help clients shift from just surviving into thriving; realigning with who and how they want to be instead of being hijacked by outdated narratives as a result of past experiences. My focus is on creating safe trauma-informed spaces and inspiring a compassionate curiosity about "who am I?" "How did I get to this point?" "What else might be possible?". I have always been fascinated with how our experiences shape us and how we may discover meaning and inspiration. During this quest I have worked as a strength & conditioning coach, yoga teacher, and counsellor and these experiences have uniquely shaped how I show up as a therapist.

Welcome! I’m so glad you’re here. Maybe you’re feeling stuck, as if there aren't enough words to describe everything you’re feeling. Perhaps you’ve noticed that your capacity for day-to-day life just isn’t what it once was. Or maybe you’ve been reflecting on your life experiences and want a place to safely examine the collection of joyful and difficult things you’ve been through. I work with individuals who are seeking to connect more deeply to themselves and others. This often includes helping people to navigate shame, anxiety, negative views of self, relationship challenges, and the impacts of sexual violence and other traumas.

Grief is a deeply painful, lonely, and isolating experience. When someone we care about dies, our relationship ends in divorce, or we experience any of the other 40 forms of loss, we often feel unprepared and ill-equipped to deal with our emotions. The wonderful news is, grief does not have to be a life sentence of suffering. There are actionable tools that can help you to move beyond the pain caused by a loss in your life. Whether you are grieving due to a recent loss or a loss from long ago, it is never too soon or too late to heal your heart.

I work with clients who are seeking to connect, understand, and embrace their own authenticity; people who are looking for self-development and growth. You want to understand yourself in relation to your lived experience, of course pursuing symptom-reduction, but not just that. You want to work toward lasting change, not just a temporary reprieve from whatever is causing them distress. You are open to exploring parts of yourself that you do not like and make you feel uncomfortable because this is where your truth exists, and without knowing or embracing these parts, you will remain only half of your whole and change will not occur.

Have you been struggling with feeling like something’s not quite right? In your relationships, your life - or within yourself? You may feel like you’re ‘not good enough’. Maybe something happened with your partner or you had a difficult childhood that is causing you pain and upset. Present-day circumstances, and events from your past, can both be contributing to how you’re feeling right now. I’m here to tell you that I specialize in helping people to heal within themselves, their relationships and to create new pathways in their body, mind and spirit to feel whole, precious and well again, or perhaps for the first time.
