I believe that our ability to create meaningful connections with ourselves and those around us is central to our wellbeing. I look forward to connecting with you to support you in further embedding wellbeing in your life. I aim to provide a safer environment where you can explore yourself and your struggles and am here to support you in creating the life that you want. As a Registered Provisional Psychologist, I am committed to ongoing training, using the latest research, and creating the meaningful therapeutic relationship necessary to support you in navigating your way toward the life you deserve.
Hal Slaunwhite Counselling & Support Services
Clinical Social Work/Therapist, MSW, RSW
Verified
I approach counselling from a lens that is grounded in the continued practice of anti-racism, disability justice,
queer
theory, sex positivity, and that recognizes the systemic violence that has, and continues to, harm us and impact our experiences in the world, and inside ourselves. The main niche of folks that I have had the honour of working with over the years have been
queer
and
trans
folks, sex workers, disabled folks, non-traditional relationship networks, kink and bdsm communities, BIPOC folks, folks navigating complex trauma, and those living at the intersections of many of these identities.

I am an
LGBTQ
ally, and deeply respectful of a wide range of personal, cultural, and religious orientations.
OFFERING EVENING AND WEEKEND SESSIONS! I am a registered psychologist who has been working in the helping field for over twenty years. While much of this work has focused on supporting at risk youth and adults experiencing or engaging in intimate partner violence, in recent years I have built a clinical practice that includes counselling adults, teenagers, and families with various combinations of mental health, behavioural, addiction, trauma and relational issues. Along with adults, I especially enjoy working with teens, families, and people who don't like counsellors.

Or, maybe you feel like you are missing out on living your life to the fullest. Sometimes we need help from a non-judgmental, compassionate professional to help us gain new perspectives, and help us re-examine beliefs and patterns that may be getting in our way.

Laurie Trace
Psychologist, Reg, Psych
Verified
CONFIDENTIAL, COMPASSIONATE, SKILLED...My clients are curious, brave and ready to evolve, even if they're not quite sure what that looks like yet. They are looking to access the underlying roots of present day triggers, to live authentically in a world that promotes quick fix solutions and unending busyness. Meaningful growth commands us to slow down, pay attention, inquire within, and be (not do). Individuals that connect with me are ready for something different, something deeper. They are ready to develop a more compassionate relationship to the parts of self that are calling for attention. They are ready to thrive.
Lynn Michele Sloane
Psychologist, PhD
Verified
Experienced Ph.D. level registered psychologist, practicing in Calgary since 1987. I enjoy helping motivated individuals in therapy. I combine clinical training with personal authenticity and sensitivity to diversity and socialization influences on how we handle what we are facing. Effective therapy is collaborative and empowering, with therapist and clients working together to make positive changes towards the clients' goals. This may involve learning to self-soothe, anti-depressant behaviours, and homework between sessions. Good therapy builds on strengths.

Nick Bohn
Psychologist, MA
Verified
Would you like to feel motivated by life? Cultivate genuine, loving relationships? Feel comfortable in your skin, regardless of what life throws your way? Well you’re certainly not alone! Connection, self-esteem, and self-actualization have all been identified as human needs—essential to our mental health and well-being. Unfortunately, certain emotional, behavioural, or relational patterns can act as barriers to these needs, quelling our personal growth, and leaving us confined to oppressive cycles of anxiety and distress. Relate to any or all of the above? I think we all can—and perhaps I can help.
Cara Lizzi
Psychologist, MC, CCC
Verified
I have worked with children, teenagers and adults who have struggled with issues such as depression and suicidal ideation, anxiety, interpersonal relationship difficulties, self-esteem issues, grief and loss. I understand that everyone faces difficulties, and sometimes you just need a little bit of outside help while you battle through the tough times. I take a relaxed and non-judgmental approach in working with clients, in hopes that therapy will be as comfortable and organic as possible. I would love to work with you on overcoming whatever struggles you are facing, and help you move towards a happier and more content life.
Jenn Betts
Psychologist, R Psyc, MA
Verified
Anxiety and depression is difficult to experience. Emotions are often overwhelming. These emotions could be anger, sadness or worry. Your struggles may have recently just started or have been there for years. I desire to journey alongside you through this difficult time.
