Azin Heydari

Registered Psychotherapist, Registered Psychotherapist
Individuals who have experienced trauma or abuse often struggle to acknowledge or accept their own experiences. They may downplay or invalidate themselves because they were told they are "too much" or “too emotional” or may not have felt important enough to be supported. While therapy aims to empower survivors to move past these difficult events, it's important to create space for these experiences and to develop a strong sense of self-compassion and curiosity about how these experiences have shaped your life and daily experiences. Negative experiences can create a constant state of fear in our brains and nervous systems, making it difficult to access the parts of our brain responsible for emotional regulation, flexibility, and connection.

Saskatoon, Saskatchewan therapist: Sarah Mikael, licensed clinical social worker
Serving Pacific Islander

Sarah Mikael

Licensed Clinical Social Worker, MSW & MACP
I know how it feels to be broken and dead inside. Life can be a never-ending struggle of trying to belong and please but always ending up rejected and labeled to be a disappointment. I know how much damage a toxic environment can cause. I know how it feels to be singled out and called crazy because your doctor put you on antidepressants. I can feel your struggle of trying to hide behind a fake smile while struggling with holding your tears. Believe me when I say that you are not alone. I have been there but I rewrote my story and I want to help you rewrite yours. My life changed when I realized that anything that cost me my peace of mind was too expensive to pay for. Learning to let go of overthinking and focusing on the possibilities was part of my healing journey.

LifeCycle Counselling

Registered Psychotherapist, MACP, MPE, RP
When you feel confused or lost about what to do in life, or you feel like no matter what you say or who you talk to they just don’t get it.. lean on us. We are here for you. I became a therapist, because like you, I am human and have had my fair share of battles. It is difficult when you feel unheard, misunderstood, and overwhelmed. That is why I created LifeCycle Counselling. Our primary focus is YOU. We meet you where you are, and walk alongside you to help you get to where you want to go. Remember, therapy is an investment, not an expense. Rediscover yourself.

Calgary, Alberta therapist: Penelope Yen, psychologist
Serving Pacific Islander

Penelope Yen

Psychologist, BA (Hons), MACP, Registered Provisional Psychologist
Don't you wish you could move forward from trauma and stop it from impacting your day-to-day life? I can help you recover from trauma, work through relationship issues, and live a more meaningful and fulfilling life. My skills come not only from my education and training, but also from a profuse amount of lived experience. I have faced my own mental health struggles and traumas in the past and I know how hard it can be to move forward. My goal is to provide truly helpful, evidence-based psychological assessment and counselling for adult individuals and couples. I always aim to provide the best possible type of therapy according to your preferences and the way your mind works. I am neurodiversity affirming and believe in working with you, not on you. I have a particular interest in helping adults who have experienced trauma, whether in childhood or recently, but even if you're just going through a tough or confusing time, I can work with you to truly find a more fulfilling path through life and its issues. I also go over and above the therapy hour to provide your own portal of relevant digital resources.
