Therapists in Calgary, AB

Are you or someone in your family struggling with anxiety, fragile self-esteem or low mood? Does it seem like it started off small but feels like it is escalating and you are unsure of how to help them or yourself? Growing up can be hard. Many children and teens today face increased anxiety, social challenges, learning difficulties, depression, loss or family challenges like divorce or illness of a parent or loved one. In adulthood, the challenges may look different, but age does not shield us from the challenges caused by career pressures, overwhelm or blows to our confidence.

Welcome to my practice! I'm Katerina Jansen, a dedicated and empathetic psychologist committed to helping individuals overcome challenges, find resilience, and live more fulfilling lives. I specialize working with adults and couples with a variety of issues, including trauma, anxiety, depression, relationships, anger management, and self-esteem. I believe in a holistic and client-centered approach to therapy, tailoring treatment plans to meet the unique needs and goals of each individual.

You’re feeling burnt out, on edge and depleted to the point where you don’t know how to stop feeling this way. You feel disconnected from the things that made you the best version of yourself. You may not be sure who that is anymore. You might find coping skills and strategies that used to be effective are no longer working. You are less able to juggle what you were once easily capable of and you feel frustrated. Cumulative stress can take a significant toll on even the strongest and most motivated individuals. When there are too many stressors over a period of time without sufficient relief, even small things feel overwhelming.

I am a PhD-level psychologist with a special interest in women's perinatal (prenatal and postpartum) mental health, as well as supporting women and families with their transition to parenthood. I also have a strong background in treating depression and anxiety, as well as other life stressors including relationship and communication difficulties, adjustment issues, low self-esteem, and life transitions. My goal is to help clients regain control of their lives by increasing coping skills and reducing emotional pain and suffering.

I am a Registered Psychologist with over 30 years experience. I work effectively with children, adolescents and adults.

I utilize art and play therapy interventions while working with children and teens. I focus on hope and teaching positive coping skills. I am trained in EMDR and ART and am skilled in working with complex trauma and PTSD. I believe we all have the capacity to overcome any challenge.

Located in NW Calgary in Tuscany, I am a Registered Psychologist with 15+ years of experience. I see children, adolescents, and adults. My particular areas of specialty are: anxiety, depression, trauma/PTSD, stress, and relationship issues. I believe that the fit between therapist and client is key. I work collaboratively with clients to conceptualize and understand the presenting issue, to identify goals and ways to move forward, and to build on and increase coping tools.

I am passionate about working with teens, young adults, adults, and families, and helping them transform into confident and successful people with effective life-management skills.

The human experience is both wearisome and wondrous. My role is to provide compassion, therapeutic knowledge, keenly observe strengths, and barriers to help you navigate the wearisome so that you can fully enjoy the wondrous. Working with clients, helping them to develop self-compassion, acquire flexibility in their approach to life, and learn robust coping skills is a deeply satisfying part of my work. I’ve observed that couples are wanting more from their relationships, yet we aren’t taught skills which allow us to relate well. I guide couples as they acquire tools which foster better communication and relationship skills.

I am a licensed psychologist with experience in providing expert psychological assessments and therapy services in the context of family law cases in Alberta. I am dedicated to helping individuals and families navigate the emotional challenges often associated with divorce, parenting disputes, and other family law matters. At this time I conduct Practice Note 7 interventions and as well Mediation and Parenting Coordination. In addition, I have extensive training in Trauma Therapy (EMDR, ART, PE) and have many years of experience working with a wide variety of first responders.

Feeling stuck? Down? Worried all the time? Not sure why you cannot let go of the past or stop worrying about the future? Unhappy in your relationship or fighting all the time despite loving one another deeply? These are all common struggles we face as human beings. It can feel overwhelming and sometimes impossible to change on our own. However, you are not alone. I have been in your shoes, experiencing the same struggles, and I also reached out for professional support to navigate my way out of what felt like a deep dark hole. It is possible to feel love and peace within yourself and your relationship again. Our stories can shift.

Life can be tough, even at the best of times, and we can all use a little help! I am passionate about supporting children, teens and their parents create better connections, increase communication, build coping skills and of course bringing back the fun to the family. Along with my work with families, I also support individuals on their journey of self discovery, whether it is by examining their values, relationship patterns or gaining perspective.

I am an Edmonton based Registered Psychologist with over 10 years of experience in the field of addiction and mental health. I specialize in working with adults and teenagers (16+), and have had the privilege of walking alongside Client's in diverse settings with a wide range of psychological issues/concerns including addiction (substance abuse, gambling...), life transition, life skills, coping skills, existential/spiritual crises, personality disorders, emotional regulation, trauma, anxiety, and depression.

I am a firm believer in achieving optimal wellness through combining focus in both mental and physical health. I provide a nurturing environment where clients can explore and address various mental/physical health concerns. I support issues such as high stress, burnout, anxiety, relationships, depression, trauma and body image concerns with a comprehensive understanding of the interconnectedness of these factors in overall well-being. By providing a safe space for healing and skill-building, I equip clients with the tools they need for self-reflection, body and mind awareness, perspective-taking, and effective coping mechanisms.

Life can feel complicated, messy and often doesn't go as planned.

I work with individuals who have experienced or are experiencing the following: Trauma, Anxiety, Depression, Sexualized Violence & Abuse, Women’s Health (Endometriosis, PCOS), Chronic Pain, Body Image Issues, Relationship Issues, Addictions, Grief & Loss.

Relationships are rarely without issue despite loving one another. We become confused about how relating became so difficult! Concerns become overwhelming resulting in deep hurt, uncertainty and distancing. In fact 80% of divorce is the result of emotional disconnect, and only 40% is due to high conflict. Neither have to happen. It is possible to have better, healthier, loving relationships! I work with you to help you both understand and use tools for your disconnects, strengths, triggers, and communication breakdowns. Relating is a learned process. We can learn to turn toward, not against or away from one another and enjoy again!

Life is stressful. Work, family and friends, parenting. So many early life experiences continue to impact our quality of life: abuse, medical and other trauma, family dynamics, loss. We know physical and emotional are interwoven and must be treated as such. Mind body connection with physical symptoms and emotional pain is real. The body remembers old trauma and tells us things are not right. It also heals when we pay attention to the right things and build in resources.

My goal as your counsellor is to provide a safe, comfortable and caring environment for you to explore your concerns and make the lasting and positive change you desire. I believe in the capacity for each of us to grow into the person we aspire to be and that we have the ability to co create the relationships we long to have. Sometimes we just need help along the way. My counselling approach is specific to your needs. Most often I will work from a developmental, attachment, and trauma informed lens utilizing emotion focused and cognitive behavioral therapies with mindfulness practices.
