Dennis Pusch
SaveDr. Dennis Pusch is a registered Clinical Psychologist who completed his B.A. in Honours Psychology at Trinity Western University (graduating summa cum laude) prior to completing his M.Sc. and Ph.D. degrees at the University of Calgary.
Dennis brings years of training and experience in cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) to his clinical work, but adds other therapeutic models and perspectives to his work according to the needs of his clients, including acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT), mindfulness, motivational interviewing, existential therapy and relapse prevention. He is committed to using therapeutic strategies that have been consistently proven to be effective, but believes that those strategies are most helpful if they are offered in a therapy relationship that is supportive, friendly, and respectful. Dennis’ clients are generally adults (including seniors) and adolescents, and he is pleased to offer services to people from all faiths, races, and orientations. He works with clients who are struggling with depression, anxiety in all its forms (e.g., panic, OCD, social anxiety, phobias, generalized anxiety), work stress, trauma, addictions (including drug and alcohol addictions as well as behavioural addictions like sex addiction, gambling, Internet, video games or shopping), and death or loss. He also provides marital therapy, as well as assessments for educational and vocational purposes. Dennis has been qualified as an expert witness in court, and maintains memberships in the College of Alberta Psychologists, the Psychologists’ Association of Alberta, the Canadian Psychological Association, and the Canadian Association of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy.

While his first passion remains his work as a therapist, Dennis has maintained a broader range of professional interests. He has been a field supervisor for the Clinical Psychology program at the University of Calgary and has trained graduate students and psychology residents in assessment and therapy, as well as supervising a number of provisional psychologists. He has served as a member of the Adult Mental Health Advisory Council for two years. He was instrumental in developing and leading the Behavioural Health Consultation program in Calgary, and he has served as the project lead and chair of a working group that developed a clinical pathway for depression in primary care. He is also collaborating with Dr. Keith Dobson (University of Calgary) in leading a multi-year research program designed to assess the impact of childhood trauma on physical and mental health outcomes later in life, and to develop treatments that can be offered in primary care settings for adults who experienced traumatic events in childhood. His work has been presented at numerous conferences and in peer-reviewed academic publications.
