Alicia Shameer RP (Qualifying)

Thanks for stopping by! I’m Alicia and would love to support you on your journey to growth and awareness. It takes a lot of courage to get the help you need, and I want to congratulate you on taking the first step. I am passionate about working with people to help them reach a mindset and a place inside themselves where they feel comfortable and empowered, emotionally and physically.

I know that sometimes it may be hard to open up to someone and I want you to know that you are never required to talk about anything you don’t want to.  My goal is to create a warm, non-judgmental space for you to feel comfortable to bring in any thought or concern that you would like to discuss throughout our sessions.

In individual therapy, I have an interest in working with adolescents and adults experiencing concerns with trauma and abuse related topics (sexual, emotional, and physical), relationship and intimacy concerns, anxiety, depression, eating concerns and addictions.

In couples therapy and family therapy, I work with the members to restore balance, intimacy and safety in their connections. I support members in the process of repairing bonds due to infidelity and betrayals.

I practice from a lens of sex positivity, LGBTQ+ friendly and kink allyship and everyone is welcome in my practice.

I am Registered Psychotherapist (Qualifying) and have completed my Master’s Degree in Counselling Psychology. I am currently being supervised under Yoshie Martinez, M. Ed. Registered Psychotherapist. I use a holistic approach to counselling by integrating various treatment models into sessions such as Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), Psychodynamic/Attachment Based Therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Mindfulness Based Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (MBCT) and Narrative Therapy. I am also interested in Somatic Experiencing.

I look forward to meeting you and supporting you along your journey. Feel free to contact me if you would like to schedule an appointment. If you have any questions or concerns, please let me know and I would be happy to assist.
