Self-Harm Support in Sherwood Park & the Edmonton Area
Compassionate therapy to understand urges, build safer coping, and strengthen support.
How self-harm can show up
Self-harm is often a coping strategy used to manage intense emotions, numbness, overwhelm, or self-criticism. It can feel private and confusing — and it can also be changed with support and safer tools.
- Strong emotional overwhelm or shutdown
- Urges during stress, conflict, or loneliness
- Shame, secrecy, or fear of judgement
- Difficulty naming or tolerating emotions
- Feeling stuck in a cycle you want to break
How we can help
We offer non-judgmental support that focuses on safety, skills, and understanding what the behaviour is doing for you — so we can replace it with healthier options.
- Emotion regulation and distress tolerance tools
- Identifying triggers and early warning signs
- Building a personal safety and support plan
- Addressing underlying anxiety, depression, or trauma
- Strengthening connection and self-compassion

You don’t have to manage this alone.
