About Me

Shazia Almas is a Registered Psychotherapist in Ontario, Canada. She provides trauma-focused and evidence-based psychotherapy to adults and adolescents, with a particular emphasis on complex trauma, dissociation, emotional dysregulation, attachment wounds, and relational trauma. She is also passionate about supporting first responders, 911 professionals, veterans, executives, and athletes who face high levels of stress, responsibility, and cumulative trauma.

Almas's therapeutic approach is collaborative, trauma-informed, and grounded in a deep respect for each client’s unique strengths and lived experience. She is especially attentive to pacing, safety, and resourcing when working with individuals who experience high emotional intensity, chronic trauma responses, or difficulties with affect regulation. Her work focuses on fostering healing, resilience, and long-term integration through compassionate, evidence-based care.
