Practice Synopsis

If you’re looking for an opportunity to freely talk about your various issues and aspirations with a reliable and intelligent psychotherapist mindful of your privacy and respectful of your views and capabilities, you are in the right place. The types of issues I often discuss with individual adults tend to include:

  • Inter-personal relationship issues and frustrations with a partner, co-worker, family member, etc.
  • Work stress or work-related stress
  • Confidence
  • Trauma / PTSD / Lingering effects of the past
  • Other issues

Counselling sessions are available as follows:

  • In person in downtown Calgary
  • Virtual (secure video, or phone) in Calgary and the rest of Alberta
  • Virtual (secure video, or phone) in Toronto and the rest of Ontario
  • Weekdays
  • Select weekday evenings (virtual only)

Professional & Ethical

I take my clients’ well-being, challenges, stories, privacy, and aspirations very seriously. I am here to listen, to assist if I can, but not to judge. My clients know that I will treat them with respect, dignity and compassion in every interaction, and that I will act in an ethical and professional manner.

Thoughtful Quotes

“Emotions – fear, anger, love – are as necessary for the organism’s survival as nerve impulses, immune cells or hormonal activity..” (Dr. Gabor Mate, When the Body Says No)

“you cannot learn to know a man until you have eaten a peck of salt with him” (The Ethics of Aristotle, Book Eight)

“Each added convenience came at a price, including a weakened connection to the natural and social environment.” (Clinical Psychology Professor Mattias Desmet)

“And it is rare, to see two trajectories meet — the abstract knowledge about the power of cultural conditioning, and the gut realization of what that conditioning has meant in one’s own life.” (Panning for Gold, Mary Sykes Wylie)

“‘How does one become a butterfly?’ she asked pensively. ‘You must want to fly so much that you are willing to give up being a caterpillar.’” (Trina Paulus)

About Trudi Jane Wyatt, MA, RP, CT, CCC

Hello. I have been providing counselling & psychotherapy services since 2009, starting in Southern California where I earned my Master’s Degree in Counselling Psychology. This is my 3rd career, with a background in market research management, and fitness.

In my practice I have worked with a variety of individuals such as executives, nurses, lawyers, physicians, public servants, post-secondary students, performers, people who are required to attend therapy for different reasons, teenagers, families, groups, and others. Currently I work with individual adults living in either Calgary, the rest of Alberta, Toronto, or the rest of Ontario.

I take pride in being an ethical, knowledgeable, reliable, respectful, intelligent, collaborative, and non-pathologizing counsellor, and I am very mindful of my clients’ cyber privacy and confidentiality (for example, I do not text with clients, I offer encrypted email for communications, etc.). I also encourage clients to keep up with their physical health, due to the mind-body connection.

My credentials include Registered Psychotherapist (RP, CRPO), Canadian Certified Counsellor (CCC, CCPA), Counselling Therapist (CT, ACTA), Certified Clinical Trauma Professional, and Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor (California, not in use at this time).

I think we all experience various emotional or behavioural challenges from time to time, and that the role of a counsellor or psychotherapist can be to support someone in their ongoing quest to move in the direction of a more satisfying, peaceful, happy, and meaningful life.
