Shoshana is a doctoral practicum student in Clinical Psychology. Her approach is rooted in humanistic and existential principles, with an emphasis on authenticity, self-exploration, and the search for meaning. She supports clients in navigating life’s challenges while cultivating resilience and developing a deeper connection to their personal values.
Shoshana is completing her doctoral training in Clinical Psychology at Concordia University of Edmonton. Her professional background includes clinical work, research, and university teaching, with particular research and clinical experience in psychedelic-assisted therapy. Her work in this area has contributed to her interest in psychospiritual development, meaning-making, and the ways that significant life experiences can contribute to psychological growth and change.
Shoshana sees therapy as a collaborative and compassionate process where clients are supported in exploring their experiences with openness and curiosity. She strives to create a warm, welcoming space that honours each client’s individual story and recognizes that there is no single path toward healing or growth. Her approach focuses on helping clients develop greater insight into themselves, connect more deeply with what matters to them, and find ways of moving through life’s challenges that feel meaningful and authentic.
Shoshana works with clients experiencing a variety of concerns, including:
- Depression
- Anxiety
- Trauma
- Substance use
- Grief and loss
- Life transitions
- Psychospiritual development and questions of meaning
Outside of her professional work, Shoshana enjoys hot yoga, exploring Edmonton’s River Valley, going to live music, and cooking for friends and family. She values making time for the people and experiences that bring balance and meaning to everyday life.
