Dr. Angela Grace - Heart Centered Counselling

Dr. Angela Grace - Heart Centered Counselling Honouring the art, science, and soul of psychology for women and children. The heart is the emotional center of the body and spirit. I a B.F.A.

My approach to heart-centered counselling is to help you re-learn how to listen to the deeper wisdom of your body, guide you through healing life's trauma and heartache and, move towards greater personal truth and authenticity. I utilize a mindful and intuitive approach to counselling, along with evidence-based knowledge, to assist you in accessing your inner wisdom and living a more full, authent

ic life. I specialize in the treatment of trauma, eating disorders and body image concerns, bereavement, depression, anxiety, health concerns, life transitions, and stress management. I have done numerous national and international presentations on health and wellness, especially in the area of eating disorder and obesity prevention, and creating healthy environments for children. in theatre, a B.Ed., an M.Ed. in Counselling Psychology from the University of Lethbridge, and am currently completing a Ph.D. in Counselling Psychology at the University of Calgary. My focus is primarily child psychology and eating disorder prevention and treatment. Prior to becoming a psychologist, I enjoyed being an elementary school teacher, and initially sought further training to become a school counsellor. I also have completed training in Hakomi, EMDR (Level II), Usui Reiki (Level II), and am completing Iyengar Yoga teacher training, which greatly informs my approach to counselling. Why do I do what I do? I truly value personal health and well-being, healthy relationships, and seek to help people create healthy environments. However, I also recognize (and have experienced) that life takes twists and turns that take us off our authentic path and cause deep hurts, which I truly believe can be healed and help us learn and grow along our life's journey. Our past does not define us, but can be used to open our hearts and minds to create a healthier present and future. My practice is inclusive of differences. GLBTQ and Poly friendly. I look forward to working with you!

The deepest root of so many issues is hate.

This is an excellent inquiry. Please take the 4 minutes to watch the intro video.

Then move into hope.

In August 2021, B.C.’s Human Rights Commissioner launched an inquiry into the rise of hate in B.C. during the COVID-19 pandemic. In March 2023, the Commissioner released her findings and recommendations.

I am a Long COVID & Long COVID Kids psychologist in Western Canada.

I am very concerned. Alarmed, actually.

I told a friend I haven't seen for a few years I have Long COVID. Her eyes glazed over.

Then she proceeded to tell me about all these "bizarre and unexplained" symptoms she has had the past year that her dr. can't figure out & all the tests are coming back normal and they tell her it's fibromyalgia & thyroid & depression & must have early rheumatoid arthritis:

Extreme fatigue
Pain in her ears & hearing loss
Sore eyes
Digestive issues
Muscle aches
Joint pain
"My pain feels foggy and I can't concentrate or remember anything."
Anxiety
Insomnia
Can't stand light or smells

I asked her, "When did you have COVID?"

She told me she had COVID three times.

I asked if she had any of these symptoms before getting COVID.

No.

I told her that she just described a number of common symptoms of Long COVID.

"Why doesn't my doctor know this? Why isn't the public being informed? How come I didn't know this could happen? COVID is just a cold."

No, sweetheart, it's not.

I wonder how many people have Long COVID and have no idea.

I'm alarmed. We are in so much trouble.

I take this very seriously.

More children are suffering than we know. We cannot pretend this does not exist.

Our children deserve love, compassion, and excellent healthcare providers who understand how serious this is.

Please reach out if your child needs support and school based accommodations. I'm here. I care. ❤️

Repeatedly mass infecting kids with COVID is not a public health strategy. It's a fast pass to declining population health

Along with psychology, I make beautiful things!

Repainting furniture fuels my creative, artsy side that loves to make life beautiful through simple acts.

I forgot to take a "before" picture, but trust me - it was crappy & boring, ready to be thrown out.

Have a boring old piece you'd love to refresh but don't have time to deal with? I'll take commissions to fuel my enjoyment of this creative, practical art form. ❤️
