GARY J. MEIERS, PH.D. - MEIERS GARY J HAMMOND/MEIERS J A & ASSOCIATES LTD REVIEWS
Dr. Meiers is the best psychologist I have seen and I have seen quite a few since my father died when I was a teenager. Unlike many other psychologists, Dr. Meiers is specialized in trauma work and dealt with my case professionally, measuring my symptoms so we could measure progress. He was the first to correctly pinpoint the true causes of my many struggles. I am very happy with the progress I have made under his care.
Dr. Gary Meiers I began working together 2-3 years go, specifically for my low mood and anxiety. Dr. Meyer's showed what others had thought, and developed an treatment plan including regular EMDR. It works! I have grateful. He is in EMDR. I have been very fortunate to find a clinical psychologist with trauma-informed care and EMDR.

SHIFTGRIT PSYCHOLOGY & COUNSELLING REVIEWS
I have always wanted to go to therapy but the thought of selecting a therapist was overwhelming and intimidating. At ShiftGrit, I filled out a questionnaire and was matched with a psychologist based on my needs. I am so happy & grateful that I was matched with my Therapist. With Shift’s unique protocol, we worked through my limiting belief. I feel so much better and am now able to view life with a new perspective.
I've had a lot of therapists before, and they all gave me the impression that they're being paid to care about the person they're talking to, but Shift was the first time I genuinely felt like I was being heard and what I was going through mattered.
ShiftGrift has a very innovative approach has a very friendly staff, and has been extremely helpful!

ALYSON HOWATT, MC, R.PSYCH - THE HAPPINESS FACTORY REVIEWS
I have been seeing Alyson for a couple of years now and she has been a tremendous help in understanding my emotional problems. Sometimes she makes connections between things I've told her a year ago, and recent things. It makes it clear that she reviews your notes and really takes your case seriously. I do believe she genuinely cares and you're not just a paycheque to her. I have emailed her on several occasions with problems between sessions and she has gotten back to me to book appointments outside of her normal business hours. She is honestly a lovely human being and it's no surprise that she shows up on here as the #1 psychologist in Edmonton.
Alyson is wonderful. She has helped me gain insight, create tools to help manage stress and anxiety, and heal. Her patience, respect, and professionalism has always made me feel comfortable. I rave about her to everyone, and highly recommend her.
I’ve been to counselors before and I’m glad I tried Alyson. She impressed me with how dedicated she was for what’s best for ME.
