Kimberly Sogge PhD CPsych Psychologist, Author of THRIVE After Trauma program, Creator of the Art & Science of Thriving Podcast
*SM does not = a professional relationship* I offer my clinical services as an experienced registered clinical health psychologist through Ottawa River Psychology/Ottawa River Integrative Mental Health, a group of registered health care professionals specializing in the
family of Third Wave clinical health psychology and evidence-informed psychotherapies. Third Wave approaches in psychology and psychotherapy are grounded in contextual behavioural science, and take a process oriented perspective on suffering, emphasizing cultivation of psychological flexibility and de-identification of one's self from symptoms concomitant with a re-orientation towards processes that build vitality and committed actions towards values-based living. The Third Wave of psychology and psychotherapy is a big conceptual umbrella, and includes mindfulness and compassion-based interventions such as Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction, Mindfulness Based Cognitive Therapy, Compassion Focused Therapy, Process-based Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Radically Open Dialectical Behaviour Therapy, and Internal Family Systems Therapy among others. I am a dedicated Buddhist practitioner with experience working with high performance athletes, military, front line responders and health care workers particularly physicians. I bring a Trauma Sensitive and Somatic emphasis to sessions integrating Third Wave processes from CBT, DBT, ERP, Compassion-Focused Therapy, Systems Theory, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Mindfulness-Integrated CBT, and Somatic Experiencing/Somatic IFS as indicated, to co-create an individualized plan for developing well-being and growth with you.
