A Multitude of Therapeutic Approaches for Effective Healing

At Virtuous Circle Counselling, we employ diverse therapeutic models to ensure effective and personalised healing:

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)

Identifying and Transforming Thought Patterns: Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is a widely acclaimed approach that empowers you to identify and modify negative thought patterns and behaviours. Through collaborative exploration, you’ll gain insights into how your thoughts impact your emotions and actions. Our skilled therapists guide you in developing practical strategies to manage challenges, fostering a more constructive and resilient mindset.

EMDR Therapy (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing)

Processing Traumatic Memories: Effective for trauma and PTSD, EMDR Therapy utilises bilateral stimulation to facilitate the processing of distressing memories. Our therapists guide you through controlled eye movements or other forms of bilateral stimulation, helping your brain reprocess traumatic memories and alleviating associated symptoms. This innovative approach promotes emotional healing and resilience.

Mindfulness Therapy

Cultivating Present-moment Awareness: Mindfulness Therapy involves cultivating present-moment awareness and non-judgmental acceptance. Through guided exercises, you’ll learn to observe your thoughts, emotions, and sensations without attachment. This practice enhances self-awareness, reduces stress, and promotes emotional regulation. Mindfulness empowers you to develop a balanced outlook on life and make intentional choices.

ART Therapy (Accelerated Resolution Therapy)

Rapid Healing Through Eye Movements: ART Therapy harnesses the power of rapid eye movements to reprocess traumatic memories. This innovative approach leads to emotional healing and relief from symptoms. Our therapists guide you through controlled eye movements, helping your brain restructure the way distressing memories are stored, resulting in a more adaptive emotional response.

Prolonged Exposure Therapy

Gradual Desensitisation for PTSD: Prolonged Exposure Therapy addresses PTSD by gradually exposing you to distressing memories and situations. Through controlled and structured sessions, you’ll experience reduced sensitivity to triggers and a decrease in associated symptoms. Our therapists provide a safe and supportive environment as you work towards desensitisation and emotional healing.

Edmonton Therapy FAQ

Alberta Health Care does not cover counselling services but Blue Cross or other extended health insurance might. Regardless, your emotional well-being is essential to living a fulfilled life and is worth investing in.

Counselling or therapy may be recommended when any type of mental health or emotional concern affects the functioning of your day-to-day life. Counselling and therapy can help you to better understand your thoughts and cope with any hard feelings you may be experiencing.

Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, also known as CBT, is widely used in the treatment of anxiety disorders but there may be other options worth discussing with your therapist.

It is important to do some research before settling on a therapist. Check for experience, credentials and licensing. You may also ask if your therapist will provide you with a consultation before your first session so you may assess if they will be a good personal fit with you.
