Stress Therapists in Edmonton, AB
I help clients manage stress, and anxiety with practical, solution-focused strategies.
H! I'm glad you're here. I'm Whitney, and I'm a Registered Psychologist. I work with adults on a range of concerns. In all my work, I am guided by the following values: honesty, curiosity, and fun. In therapy, this means that I aim to be transparent about what we're doing and why (if you're someone who needs to know the why before you engage in something, I see you); I seek feedback from clients to ensure therapy is meeting their needs and adapt the process when needed. I also take the opportunity to use creativity and humour to enhance therapy.

Imagine a space where you are fully listened to, a place where you can talk about the things you need to and not be judged for it. Each person struggles sometimes, that is normal. With therapy, those struggles may become smaller and easier. I listen carefully to spot and highlight the places that you are doing well. We work through where you want to go and the best way to get there. You then take these skills that you've learned so that you can solve future struggles that you may encounter.

Perhaps you’re navigating stress in relationships, work or school, identity shifts, life transitions, or the lingering impact of medical trauma— especially if you work in healthcare or have cared for others in challenging circumstances.

I’m especially interested in the mind-body connection, noticing how stress and trauma live in the body and how awareness and regulation can create meaningful change.
Therapy can be a space to slow down and look more closely at what’s been weighing on you, whether that's anxiety that takes over your day, feeling stuck in old patterns, navigating a difficult transition, or carrying something you can’t quite put into words yet. My goal is to help you make sense of your experiences in a way that feels practical and meaningful. We’ll focus on building flexibility and regulation so difficult internal experiences don’t dictate your choices, while deepening awareness of the patterns, emotions, and values that guide you.

Whether you are hoping to address issues related to your career, your family, or your relationships, or you wish to overcome problems like depression, anxiety, stress management, or grief, I do my best to provide a non-judgemental space for people to work on those issues.
