EMDR Basic Training Membership
Shannon Martin Counselling Services
I am a Registered Social Worker (RSW) in good standing with the Alberta College of Social Workers since 2007. I hold a Master of Social Work (MSW) degree specializing in Clinical Practice, along with graduate certificates in Infant, Child, and Adolescent Mental Health and Advanced Social Work Practice.I am a trauma-informed and attachment-based clinician with experience supporting children, youth, adults, and families experiencing a range of mental health concerns. My work emphasizes nervous system safety, attachment, and pacing that supports clients in processing trauma and strengthening overall emotional wellbeing.I completed EMDR Basic Training in Spring 2026 and continue to participate in both individual and group consultation to further strengthen and deepen my EMDR practice. As an integrative therapist, I draw from EMDR, Polyvagal-informed approaches, parts work, CBT, DBT, Narrative Therapy, Play Therapy, Biofeedback, and Emotion Focused Family Therapy (EFFT) to tailor therapy to each client’s unique needs.My approach is compassionate, collaborative, and individualized, with a focus on therapeutic attunement, fostering trust, connection, and meaningful change.
