Overview

"With her decades of clinical experience, Dr. Wilson has crafted a clear, stepwise approach for therapists to help their clients safely and effectively address and resolve fear-based memories. Drawing from the results of a variety of research studies, she succinctly extracts some core biological realities regarding how traumatic memories are stored in the brain - and how they may be ""updated"" in psychotherapy in a durable manner. Then she links those processes with her easy-to-follow four-step model based on her work with systems theory and cognitive behavior therapy. Utilizing numerous case studies, she illustrates how hypnosis significantly helps facilitate the retrieval and reworking of the fear-based memory. The end result provides therapists with a well-crafted, well-articulated approach to addressing a wide variety of fear-based memories. I highly recommend her book to therapists looking to further enhance their clinical skills. Paul W. Schenk, Psy.D. Clinical Psychologist Atlanta, GA"

She volunteered as a board member of the Canadian Federation of Clinical Hypnosis, including two years as President, while also being a board member of the affiliated Alberta Division. She graduated from the University of Alberta in 1977, including a year of training at McMaster University in Hamilton, Ontario, prior to her Family Medicine training there. Eventually, she continued postgraduate training in Marital and Family Therapy at the University of Guelph, returning to the University of Alberta to continue courses and practicums before limiting her professional practice to psychotherapy from 1987 until her retirement in 2019. She has endeavored to live as an ancestor of the future, claiming her biggest accomplishment to be the raising of her children, Sonja, Sean, and Jaime. She takes great pleasure in seeing who they have become as citizens of the world and especial pleasure in recognizing the continuation of her influence as she watches Sean, her oldest son, being the nurturing father that he is. She continues to live in her birth city of Edmonton, Alberta.
