As a PhD provisionally registered psychologist with specialized training in evidence-based treatments for insomnia, I believe good sleep is the foundation for good mental health. I work with individuals to improve their sleep by addressing the root cognitive and behavioural causes of insomnia, such as reducing anxiety, depression, or doing “too much of a good thing” that interferes with sleep (e.g. addiction to nicotine, alcohol, or cannabis, or other impulsive/compulsive behaviours such as too much internet or social media use, pornography, binge eating, video games, or gambling).

Welcome to Well Workshop, Edmonton's ADHD clinic. The road to wellness is ongoing and can be difficult to navigate alone; with support from Well Workshop, you won’t have to. Individually, as a couple, or family, you’ll have the opportunity to work together with your therapist to acquire tools to develop and strengthen the skills and techniques needed for you to be–and stay–mentally, emotionally, and physically well.

I provide a safe and welcoming environment in which to support you along your healing journey. A strong therapeutic relationship is essential, and you can expect a compassionate and genuine therapist who is dedicated to helping you grow to your fullest potential. I believe that you are the best expert on your life and that effective therapy involves a process of skill building and learning to trust your intrinsic wisdom. Therapeutic success to me is when you can use the wisdom from both your mind and body in order to make choices that are congruent with your values.

I am a Registered Provisional Psychologist that has a clinical background training in Emotional Disorders (e.g., Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD), Generalized Anxiety Disorder (GAD), Depression, and Anxiety), Sleep Disturbances, Chronic Pain and Couple Distress. Additionally, I concentrated in Child Psychology where I helped adolescents overcome childhood traumas and developmental issues.

The decision to start therapy is a courageous first step towards understanding, healing and growth. Whether you struggle with relationships, persistent troubling thoughts or feelings, are overwhelmed by events that are out of your control or just want to get in touch with a deeper sense of meaning and purpose in your life, therapy can help.

Welcome! I am a trauma therapist with culturally informed, anti-racist & intersectional feminist values. I would be honored to walk through life's difficulties with you through creating a trusting relationship. We can process life experiences, break intergenerational trauma cycles, develop your unique identity, explore values, or set boundaries. Through being more compassionate to yourself, we can build your self worth and heal childhood wounds. I work holistically to support folks to deepen their connections to their mind, body, soul, spirit, emotions & community. I care about creating safer spaces that empower BIPOC mental health.

I offer personalized therapy that works. I'm committed to helping you feel better, achieve your goals, and overcome any challenge, be it intrusive thoughts, painful and intense emotions, or posttraumatic stress from issues like combat or sexual trauma, accidents, abuse, assault, death, or suicide. I work with couples and adults dealing with trauma, posttraumatic stress (PTSD), anxiety, panic, depression, grief, ADHD, and relationship issues. I focus on supporting couples and adults within military, police, correctional, emergency medical, healthcare, and fire rescue services confronting challenges like PTSD, depression, and anxiety.

Welcome! I support adults and teens who are navigating grief and trauma including parental loss, death of a loved one, end of a relationship/friendship, separation, pet loss, childhood trauma, medical/health related trauma, physical injury, relational trauma and life transitions. I also support people who are navigating additional challenges such as anxiety, depression, stress, relationship issues, self worth/self esteem and chronic pain.

To know oneself takes a willingness to be in an honest enquiry into the roots, structures and patterns that make up our decisions and beliefs.What helps on this journey of discovery is a personal relationship with a skilled guide that is grounded in trust and intimacy.This relationship is a powerful tool to unlock the needed self knowledge to change the stuck spaces we live in.We are able to find the strength to successed in career and relationship.Our aim is to become a whole person, one who is able to function with depth of love and understanding.

I want you to know that you can feel better. The effects of patterns like depression, anxiety, low self-esteem, and people-pleasing don’t need to rob you of a life lived well. Soul-sucking patterns like these gobble up your time, money, physical energy, thoughts, and the ability to focus on yourself. Life feels hard in this place. The good news is that pain is motivating! You've likely tried a bunch of things to feel better, but now your inner wisdom is whispering to you to find outside help for the inside pain, and here you are. If this resonates with you, I'd love to work together!

Matt Shandro has worked as a registered psychologist in the province of Alberta since 2009. He provides counselling and psychotherapy to teens, adults, couples, families and groups.

Do you ask yourself “what’s the point”, feel exhausted, stuck, alone, overwhelmed, stressed, isolated or withdrawn? Do you think to yourself, I’m not in control, not good enough, or I'm a failure? Do you lack focus & concentration or have a loss of interest or pleasure in life? Do memories of your childhood, a recent loss, or an accident interfering in your activities of daily living? If you connected to any of the above and are looking for something different, better, or more, we can work together to create a treatment plan offering you hope, to help guide you, and support you in having a more functioning, healthier & happier life.

Trauma can leave an imprint on our lives, but it does not have to be permanent. It may alter your foundation and leave you lost, angry, confused and in unbearable pain. I believe that choosing to rebuild this foundation through therapy is a courageous step in healing. It is not always an easy journey as we need to survey the land, start digging, install the foundation and work with any arising obstacles. This can be an exhausting and scary process but we will work collaboratively at your pace and create a resolution that fits for you.

I am a registered Clinical Psychologist with experience working for both Alberta Health, and Children’s Services. I have extensive knowledge of the supports and resources available in the community and enjoy working with people of all ages. I provide a safe, trusting, and supportive environment which is essential in your journey of health and wellness. I believe in empowerment as a tool for navigating the obstacles and challenges of life. We will work together to understand the barriers to your success and develop strategies to facilitate your personal growth and recovery.

We are each the author of our own life story, and at times it can feel like we don’t know how to write the next chapter. Perhaps you are experiencing patterns of unhelpful thoughts or behaviours, overwhelming emotions, or just can’t figure out what the obstacle is. Whatever the case may be, please know that you are not alone. I’m here to support you as you write your next chapter. It would be my privilege to work behind the scenes, encouraging you as you navigate the next (or possibly the first) step in your healing journey. To be the Alfred to your Batman, so to speak!

Are you ready to move beyond coping and toward change and healing? I help clients achieve their goals by introducing practical strategies/skills, while simultaneously working through the causes of issues so that symptoms reduce in the long term. This may involve re-evaluating your thinking, improving awareness and regulation of emotions, getting in tune with your values, identifying parts of yourself that are in conflict, or making peace with past experiences. Everyone's' needs are different, so I will work with you to create a personalized treatment approach.
