Welcome and thank you for taking that brave first step toward healing and inner peace. It's not easy, and I admire your courage. My name is Samina, and I specialize in nurturing young minds and supporting families through challenging times. My therapeutic journey is guided by warmth, compassion, and an unwavering focus on the unique experiences of each individual. In my practice, I've had the privilege of working closely with children, teens and young adults - which I have now declared as my specialty and focus in therapeutic practice.

I’ve been privileged to live and work in Alberta’s far north, where I’ve become familiar with a wide diversity of cultures and personalities. I understand the unique challenges – such as isolation, transportation, lack of access to support services - that Northerners face. My clients include those facing issues related to intergenerational trauma, residential schools, 60s scoop, addictions, family violence and systemic racism. I have experience working with trauma, sexual assault, grief and loss, separation/divorce, and the LGBTQ community.

Many of us will have times in our lives where we are overwhelmed by our experiences and feel stuck. We may have difficulty understanding ourselves (and others), putting our experiences in perspective, and finding our way forward. During times like this it is valuable to have someone to talk to about those experiences, a safe place to sort through the many thoughts and emotions, a place where we feel accepted and understood, and can clarify for ourselves the way forward.

There is power in the stories we tell and how we tell them. I love being able to hold space for others stories and empower you to decide how to tell it for yourself. My ultimate goals for you are: to know what it feels like to be safe with another person or what I call "feel felt", have a better relationship with yourself, and if we add in a coping strategy or two that you actually like to use, then bonus! There will be no "one way" I do therapy with you, because it's going to be dependent on who you are, where you are at, and how we jive! I have completed multiple trainings including ART, Narrative, DBT, ACT, EFT, Somatic and IFS.

I want to help you find your "joie de vivre" (joy in living) and empower you to be your best self! I am a Registered Psychologist certified in Hakomi mindfulness-centered somatic psychotherapy and EMDR.

If you are dealing with unresolved pain due to any kind of loss or transition, contact me for more information.

There can be times in our lives when we all can feel stuck, overwhelmed, or need someone to talk to and be heard. When you have come to realize something needs to change, the first step is often the hardest. I would like to support you, in a safe, non-judgemental way along your journey through the transformation to discover your best self. I feel my background best serves adolescents, adults, parents, and couples to find their way in navigating anxiety, relationship issues, school concerns, difficulties with life transition, and parent coaching or support.

Further, I provide the necessary encouragement and support for making difficult but important life changes. Many of my clients have found that therapy has helped them to feel a new sense of freedom and enthusiasm, both within themselves and in their relationships with friends, family, and co-workers.

As an attachment focused and trauma informed therapist, I work with individuals and couples to identify how traumatic experiences, grief and loss, experiencing neglect or abuse, and other distressing experiences may be keeping you stuck in a pattern of distress. Unresolved trauma can maintain feelings of depression, anxiety, self criticism, difficulty regulating or expressing your emotions, difficulty in feeling close with others, as well as difficulty in setting boundaries. It can also contribute to PTSD, phobias, disordered eating, and a number of other mental health challenges.

In a society bombarded by messaging that constantly encourages the pursuit of happiness through self-actualization, it’s no wonder people find themselves stuck in the cycle of pursuing self-growth and happiness and are often left feeling disappointed, anxious, and disheartened. Our brain is wired for survival, and sometimes, we need to remind ourselves that we don’t just want to survive, we want to LIVE.

Thank you for considering my profile as you take steps towards your healing and growth. Moving through survival and into daily life can be filled with uncertainty and difficulty. Challenging life experiences may leave you feeling stuck, and disconnected from yourself and others, and may shift the foundation of deeply held values and beliefs. I am passionate about supporting adults who are seeking support related to life transitions, relationship concerns, anxiety, stress, trauma and trauma-related symptoms, depression, sexual violence/abuse, and existential crisis. I also offer mental health, personality, and vocational assessments.

My ideal client is someone who has experienced the depth of life's challenges, perhaps grappling with Trauma, PTSD, Grief, or Relationship Issues. They could be facing anxieties, behavioral concerns, or family conflicts stemming from diverse issues. These challenges have shaped them, but they haven’t defined them. Their goal? To find clarity, healing, and empowerment. They seek a therapeutic space that is both culturally sensitive and technically adept. They want to be seen, heard, and understood. They yearn for resilience, growth, and a renewed sense of purpose.

I am blessed to have over 20 years of experience helping adults find their life path by freeing themselves from their own limiting beliefs about what they can or cannot do, from old stories of who they are are and how they "should" be in the world, and from false fears that create invisible traps and roadblocks. I also have a special interest in helping people manage chronic illness and autoimmune disease (Hashimoto's, Type 1 diabetes, etc). With first hand experience managing the challenging day to day demands of autoimmune issues, my goal is to help you feel more confidant in your ability to live a full vital life.
