Our Services

At Hartwell Counselling Therapy Group, we provide trauma-informed counselling for adults navigating burnout, chronic stress, trauma, and emotional overwhelm. Our virtual therapy services support individuals who are high-functioning in their careers and relationships, yet internally exhausted or emotionally depleted.

We specialize in trauma therapy for adults, including support for childhood trauma, relational wounds, and long-term stress. Our work focuses on nervous system regulation, emotional processing, and sustainable healing rather than short-term coping strategies. We also offer Pivot Point a 6 week Reset Program. It is a structured, time-limited therapy program grounded in individual, compassionate care for adults navigating burnout, chronic stress, or the lingering impact of trauma.

Individual Counselling Services Include:

  • Trauma-informed therapy for childhood, relational, and complex trauma

  • Burnout and chronic stress counselling for high-achieving professionals

  • EMDR therapy and trauma reprocessing

  • Therapy for anxiety, depression, and emotional overwhelm

  • Trauma-informed counselling for substance use and recovery

All services are offered through secure virtual counselling, allowing adults across Edmonton, Alberta, New Brunswick, Ontario, British Columbia, and Nova Scotia to access therapy with privacy and flexibility.

Our therapeutic approach integrates evidence-based modalities including EMDR, Internal Family Systems (IFS), somatic therapy, ACT, and CBT. While our practice centers the lived experiences of Black women and marginalized communities, we welcome all adults seeking trauma-informed, culturally responsive counselling.

If you’re looking for virtual trauma therapy or counselling for burnout and emotional exhaustion,  free 15 mins consultation can help you determine whether this approach is the right fit.

Pivot Point

Pivot Point is a 6-Week Reset Program that is structured therapy and grounded in individual, compassionate care for adults navigating burnout, chronic stress, or the lingering impact of trauma. This program is designed for people who are used to holding it together for others and are ready to be met with care, patience, and respect in their own healing process.

Each session offers a calm, supportive space where therapy unfolds at a pace that honors your nervous system and emotional capacity. Rather than pushing for rapid change, the focus is on gentle regulation, attuned support, and meaningful integration. You are met as an individual, not a protocol.

The program integrates trauma-informed counselling with body-based and trauma-processing approaches such as somatic therapy and EMDR, while maintaining flexibility and responsiveness to your unique needs. Sessions balance emotional insight with grounding and stabilization, supporting healing without overwhelm.

Pivot Point Is Designed For you:

  • If you feel emotionally stuck despite self-awareness or previous therapy

  • If you are experiencing burnout, chronic stress, or trauma-related symptoms

  • If you want focused support within a clearly defined therapeutic container

  • If you value a compassionate, individualized approach rather than a one-size-fits-all program

This program is offered virtually and begins with an intake session to ensure readiness and clinical fit. Throughout the process, care is taken to support safety, consent, and collaboration.

  • Our services are designed for adults navigating trauma, burnout, chronic stress, anxiety, depression, or emotional overwhelm. Many of our clients are high-achieving professionals or caregivers who appear functional outwardly but feel exhausted, disconnected, or stuck internally. We work best with individuals who are open to reflection and meaningful change.

  • Yes. All services are offered virtually through a secure platform. This allows clients across Edmonton, Alberta, Ontario, British Columbia, and Nova Scotia to access therapy in a private, flexible, and effective way.

  • No. Hartwell Counselling Therapy Group currently offers individual therapy only for adults. We do not provide couples, family, parenting, or child therapy at this time.

  • We provide individual trauma-informed counselling using evidence-based approaches such as EMDR, Internal Family Systems (IFS), somatic therapy, ACT, and CBT. Therapy focuses on the nervous system regulation, trauma processing, emotional integration, and practical tools for daily life.

  • Working with Hartwell Counselling Therapy Group is collaborative, paced, and grounded in emotional safety. Sessions are structured yet flexible, allowing space for both reflection and practical support. You can expect a trauma-informed approach that respects your boundaries, centers your lived experience, and moves at a pace that supports sustainable change rather than pressure or urgency.

    Therapy focuses on helping you understand your patterns, regulate your nervous system, and build tools that support both emotional insight and day-to-day functioning.

  • Both options offer individual, trauma-informed counselling, but they differ in structure and focus.

    Individual therapy is open-ended and flexible, allowing space to explore a range of concerns over time at a pace that evolves with your needs.

    Pivot Point is a 6-Week Reset Program that is structured and designed for individuals seeking focused, compassionate support within a clear therapeutic container. While still personalized, the work is more intentional and concentrated, integrating nervous system regulation and trauma-processing approaches over a defined six-week period.

    If you’re unsure which option is the best fit, an intake session can help determine the most supportive path forward.
