At ShiftGrit, our psychologists in Calgary care about our performance because we care about the client's results. Our mission is to help as many people as we can build their custom-built realities. ShiftGrit Psychology & Counselling is excited to celebrate 10 years in business with its flagship service, The Shift Protocol, designed to provide clients with a groundbreaking, comprehensive approach to mental health therapy. The Shift Protocol is a step-by-step plan that serves as the backbone of therapy and a method of reliably identifying and addressing the root causes of Anxiety, Depression, PTSD, OCD/OCPD, Binge Eating and more...
We’re changing how therapy is done to help people lead happier, healthier, more productive lives. Have you ever wondered why you sometimes can’t get out of your way? ShiftGrit’s Pattern Theory clearly explains The Why and where it came from. And while awareness is the first goal of our therapy, we don’t stop there.
ShiftGrit offers a very structured and carefully tuned approach to therapy, which is delivered by our specially trained clinicians. You won’t get a “so what do you want to talk about today?” question from our team because they come armed with a wicked game plan and walk you through it- right into a better life.

The treatment method involves reconditioning the responses in the "walnut brain," which is referred to as our primitive, pre-evolutionary brain, akin to our animal instincts. This process employs psychological techniques reminiscent of classical conditioning, as used by behaviourists like Pavlov with dogs, but in this case, it's an inverted form of classical conditioning.
