Samantha (Sam) Dover is a Registered Psychologist with an expertise in treating those struggling with symptoms of trauma and complex grief. She works with clients to use their resiliency to foster posttraumatic growth. As well as holding the designation of Registered Psychologist, Sam is a Certified Grief Recovery Specialist and Certified Clinical Trauma Professional. She has training in EMDR, Accelerated Resolution Therapy (ART), Dialectical Behaviour Therapy, Attachment theory, and Existentialism to complement this. Sam is also a contracted provider with WCB.
In addition to her grief and trauma work, Sam also became a Certified Perinatal Mental Health Professional (PMH-C) in 2023.
