Hala Kaiss, MC, R. Psych

Registered Psychologist at Calgary Weight Management Centre

Hala is a Registered Psychologist with over 10 years of counseling experience. She believes that all individuals have the capacity to move towards healing, and that therapy provides a safe space for this as it can be challenging to both let go of and accept, certain parts of ourselves and our story.

Hala has supported Adults through numerous challenges related to trauma, anxiety, depression, emotional regulation, body image, and developing healthier relationships with food and the body. Hala follows a client-centered approach to therapy and views individuals as being the experts in their own lives. She utilizes a variety of modalities including cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT), eye movement desensitization and reprocessing (EMDR), as well as mindfulness and somatic-based interventions. Hala brings a warm, inviting, and empathetic presence to therapy and works in a collaborative manner to address your concerns and achieve your goals.

When Hala is not with clients you can find her exercising, chasing her toddler, or chipping away at her psychology doctorate!
