A.A. Atsimbom, PhD, MACP, MBA, C.C.C

Atsimbom is a caring personality who is naturally drawn toward assisting others. She has a bachelor’s degree in history, an MBA, a master’s degree in counselling psychology, and a doctorate degree in developmental psychology with a specialization in Child and Adolescent development. She is passionate about ensuring everyone has access to the necessary information and resources to look after their mental health. She believes that people are facing mental health issues, but that due to many factors, this topic is not being openly discussed.

Atsimbom has worked with several mental health organizations in Africa, Europe, and the Calgary area, and she is now leveraging her experience to give back to her community. Her competence in using various counselling modalities has informed her practice in counselling children, youth, adults, and couples.

“I operate using a culturally sensitive lens and understand how important faith can be to some people. I incorporate aspects of my client’s unique cultures into therapy as they request. This enables me to build rewarding, therapeutic relationships with my clients. Humans should live their best, authentic lives filled with happiness, meaning, and purpose. Everyone deserves happiness and rewarding relationships. Sometimes, our past and present experiences interfere with this. My intention is to help guide you as you walk towards living your best authentic life. I acknowledge that very often, we fail to look after our own mental health because of the numerous challenges that we face daily. Simple acts of kindness to the self are very important, and I believe each of us has unique strengths and qualities that can help us shift from struggling to thriving. My goal is to meet my clients where they are”, (Atsimbom).
