Barna Heer, MC
Registered Provisional Psychologist
Hello! I am a Registered Provisional Psychologist working in Alberta. I enjoy working with adults regarding various issues such as anxiety, depression, boundaries, concerns related to race and ethnicity, trauma, relationship concerns, difficult childhoods, shame, and self-compassion. The majority of my clinical experience has been with adults who have been impacted by trauma from sexualized violence.
Therapy will not solve all of our problems, but it will help us manage life more effectively. I believe that although we cannot always escape the challenges life throws at us, we can learn to ride out the challenges – similar to watching the waves rolling onto the shore. The waves will be constant, but we can learn different tools to help us float in the water, so the waves can feel less intense.
Why Choose Ride the Waves Psychological?
Life can be challenging; we may experience trauma, relationship issues, grief and loss, or significant life changes. I believe the ways we learn to manage or cope with these challenges are all valid and important – as they help us survive difficult moments. However, if you find these coping tools are no longer working for you and would like to learn alternative tools to support your healing journey, therapy may be an option.
I recognize the difficulty in reaching out to begin therapy and honour the bravery in taking this step. If you choose to work with me, together we will explore your story and grow towards your identified goals. I look forward to working with you!
