Alexandra Hopkins

M.A. (she/her)

Registered Psychologist

Alexandra specializes in working with trauma-exposed professionals and adults seeking therapy that goes beyond simple coping strategies and quick fixes. She helps individuals gain deeper clarity and understanding of themselves, guiding them through trauma recovery while exploring how their experiences have shaped their identity, values, and sense of self. Her passion for supporting trauma-exposed professionals originated from her work developing a service-learning model on brain injuries within the justice system and providing mental health support to first responders and veterans while earning her master's degree in Denver, Colorado. This experience has greatly influenced her therapeutic approach, allowing her to integrate evidence-based treatments with trauma-informed care to address the unique challenges faced in these professions.

Alexandra's practice is marked by genuineness, empathy, and directness, with a strong emphasis on building a solid therapeutic alliance. She assists clients in uncovering the "why" behind their behavioural patterns while also helping them develop practical skills for resilience, growth, and meaningful change.

Alexandra is registered with the College of Alberta Psychologists. She holds a M.A. in Forensic Psychology from the University of Denver and a B.A. in Psychology & Criminology from the University of Western Ontario. Alexandra understands the importance of finding the right therapist, which is why she offers a complimentary 15-minute phone consultation to evaluate if her approach suits your needs.
