Free yourself from the past and step into a new future

Meet Vivienne Livingstone, therapist for trauma, stress & anxiety in Calgary, AB

You go to bed promising yourself tomorrow will be different - only to wake up to the same old struggles day after day

Women come to me feeling trapped in unhealthy patterns, relationships, emotional pain, or a certain stage of life. Some struggle with self-doubt, people-pleasing, and putting others’ needs ahead of their own. Some carry the weight of recent or childhood trauma that leaves them feeling anxious and overwhelmed. Some are helping professionals supporting others while masking their own pain. Some are driven professional women silently suffering from intense pressure and hurt that no-one else can see.

Sound Familiar?

No matter how hard you try—and you’ve tried a lot—a peaceful and fulfilling life still feels out of reach. The pain you thought you left in the past keeps getting in the way and all the work you’ve put in so far hasn’t made a real difference. You’re realizing it’s time to find someone—and something—to help you get to the root of it.

I get it - I’ve been there myself

I know that sometimes this stuff feels so big and heavy and it feels so hard to reach out for help. I’ve walked through trauma, wrestled with anxiety, and come out the other side. So when we work together, you won’t just get an experienced therapist. - you’ll get someone who can understand what you’re going through.

How I work

I help women like you!

The ones who want to work through their pain & heal their hurt, but just need some help getting there.

I’m here to help you get to the root of your problems, uncover what’s been holding you back, and really understand what’s going on beneath the surface. We’ll work together to find the strength you already have and to process those difficult experiences so you can move forward with confidence.

Together we can create transformational change

I’m a Certified EMDR Therapist and Master Accelerated Resolution (ART) Therapist. I integrate other evidence based therapies like IFS Informed Parts Work and somatic body based approaches to tailor our work to your unique needs.

The beauty of this approach is that it’s flexible and customized— focused on what works best for you. I stay committed to ongoing training, so you can feel confident that the support you’re receiving is always informed by the most up-to-date and effective therapeutic approaches.

Throughout our work together, I’ll be right beside you—collaborative, compassionate, and challenging you when you need it to stay on track with your goals. I’m comfortable with big feelings and difficult conversations, and I believe in your innate ability to heal and grow.

You already have everything you need within you to create the life you want
