Dena Samimi-Ward MACP, Registered Psychologist

I’m a Registered Psychologist based in Edmonton, Alberta, offering in-person and secure virtual therapy sessions to adults across the province. I bring a trauma-informed, compassionate approach to therapy, drawing on evidence-based practice to cultivate a safe space to explore new strategies and process your journey.

I support adults navigating grief and loss, trauma, chronic pain, emotional regulation, interpersonal challenges and communication, anxiety, stress management, life transitions, identity and values exploration.

I also offer couples therapy to explore ongoing patterns, improve communication, navigate major life transitions, and explore values within the relationship.

As a trauma-informed therapist, I offer compassionate, personalized support tailored to your unique needs and have training in a range of approaches including Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), and Somatic Experiencing (SEP). I also draw from attachment and compassion based approaches.
