Therapy for Professionals

Greenwood Psychology specializes in supporting professionals who face the unique challenges of high-demand careers.

We work with professionals in high-stakes roles - nurses, paramedics, veterinarians, lawyers, therapists, and more - who know that the job doesn’t just stay at work. We get that your identity is tied to what you do, and we respect the dark humour and unspoken culture that come with high-stress careers. At Greenwood Psychology, we don’t sugar-coat; we tell it like it is. Our work is grounded in Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) and Psychodynamic Therapy; approaches that help cut through the noise and get real results.

  • Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) equips you to recognize and shift unhelpful thoughts and behaviors, offering practical strategies to manage stress, perfectionism, and workplace pressures. It is also highly effective for mental health concerns that can affect and interacts with professional performance, including:

    • Panic Disorder

    • Social Anxiety

    • Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD)

    • Generalized Anxiety Disorder

  • Psychodynamic therapy helps you explore the deeper emotional patterns and meanings behind your stress, perfectionism, and workplace challenges. By understanding how your professional role intersects with your identity, values, and past experiences, you can build resilience, gain insight, and develop more adaptive ways of coping with occupational pressures.

    Psychodynamic therapy can also support individuals dealing with:

    • Chronic stress or burnout

    • Work-related anxiety

    • Interpersonal conflicts at work

    • Challenges in integrating professional and personal identity

  • At Greenwood Psychology, we do not provide reports for Worker’s Compensation (WCB) or disability claims. Completing these reports requires a level of specialization and focus that is best handled by psychologists who are contracted directly with insurance organizations. Clients often have better outcomes when these evaluations are conducted separately, and we are happy to support you in finding the right professional for this process.
