Hi! I'm Alshaba Billawala Jouen, a Registered Psychologist in Alberta and British Columbia and the clinic owner of Restore Psychology, providing online counselling services in Calgary, Edmonton, & Vancouver.
I have experience providing evidence-based treatment to adolescents, adults and couples and.
My practice specializes in working with clients with depression, anxiety, trauma (e.g., PTSD), grief, pregnancy and infant loss and working with couples experiencing relationship or marital difficulties. I also provide psychological and adoption assessments.
As an integrative therapist, I use various treatment modalities and tailor my approach to each individual client’s unique needs.
I work collaboratively with my clients through every stage of the therapy process – from the initial assessment, treatment planning, to implementation. You get to be an active participant in your therapy treatment and find ways to move forward.

My Approach to Therapy
Finding the right fit in a therapist is very important to the therapy process and to the outcomes from therapy. To help support you in making the most informed decision for yourself, I provide a complimentary 15 minute consultation (over phone or video). During this consultation you get a chance to:
-
Share your current struggles, goals, or reasons for seeking therapy
-
Ask any questions about the therapy process, if/how it can help and get an idea of what sessions might look like with me
-
Obtain referrals or additional resources that might be helpful
In my online counselling practice, I draw primarily from my experience and training in:
-
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)
-
Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR)
-
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT)
-
Emotionally Focused Therapy for couples
-
The Gottman Method of Couples Therapy
