Eileen Donahoe, PhD Psychologist

Eileen Donahoe, Ph.D., Registered Psychologist.

I have worked in inpatient and outpatient mental health, pain rehabilitation and private practice for over 30 years. I see adults age 19 and above in individual therapy.

I have significant experience with treating Post traumatic Stress.

My office is located with Family Osteopathy and Family Physiotherapy where I work collaboratively with physiotherapy, massage, Acupuncture and Osteopathy in the beautiful Village of Port Williams, near Wolfville, Nova Scotia.

I see individuals for a variety of presenting concerns. My areas of practice include trauma/PTSD, depression, anxiety and panic, pain and stress. Other areas are grief/loss and life transitions like retirement.

I believe that the therapy relationship helps create safety. Feeling safe allows us to be compassionate towards ourselves and curious about our own reactions.

My EMDR training helps with trauma and other problems. It also helps to build resilience. I am also trained in CBT, brief psychodynamic therapy, and experiential approaches.

For those who want to work intensively with trauma, I am pursuing the possibility of offering intensives- This means roughly 3 full days in a row of processing trauma with restoring and EMDR. Good for people who do not want to extend their trauma over a months.
