Meet Puja Patel | RPC (CCC) Registered Professional Counsellor | College of Registered Psychotherapists of Ontario

In-person in Calgary & Virtual Across Alberta & Ontario

Do you find yourself walking on eggshells, doubting your reality, or losing your sense of self in relationships? You’re not alone.

I specialize in helping individuals and couples heal from narcissistic and emotional abuse, codependency, and relational and childhood trauma. Whether you’re rebuilding after a toxic relationship, navigating family wounds, or hoping to strengthen your partnership through premarital or couples therapy, healing is possible.

Together, we’ll uncover the patterns that keep you stuck, rebuild trust in yourself, and create healthier connections rooted in safety and authenticity. You deserve relationships—and a life—that feel calm, grounded, and fully your own.

Therapy with me is Warm and grounding.

I bring a steady, grounding presence to help you navigate even the most challenging emotions.

Outside the therapy room…

Cooking, hiking, and café-hopping keep me inspired.

You Deserve to Feel Safe, Seen, and Whole.

There are moments in life when you find yourself standing still—unsure of the next step, even when the world around you feels full of possibilities. In those moments, having a safe space to simply be can be deeply healing.

As a trauma-informed psychotherapist, I offer that space with warmth, curiosity, and deep respect. I specialize in helping individuals and couples heal from narcissistic and emotional abuse, childhood and relational trauma, and codependency, as well as supporting partners through premarital and couples counseling.

Many of us learn to silence our pain rather than explore it. Yet true healing begins when we allow ourselves to be seen and understood. In therapy, we’ll work together to uncover the patterns that keep you feeling small or stuck, and to reconnect you with your resilience, boundaries, and sense of self.

My approach is collaborative, compassionate, and culturally responsive—meeting you where you are and guiding you toward what’s next. Together, we’ll move at a pace that feels right for you, creating space for clarity, connection, and lasting change.

You don’t have to face this alone. I’m here to walk beside you as you move toward healing, empowerment, and a life that feels grounded and truly your own. If you're ready to take that next step, I invite you to book a free 30-minute consultation.
