Therapists in Okotoks, AB

I work with young people who struggle with anxiety, self-worth, self-confidence, self-expression, and coping skills. My sessions are not the traditional 50-minute in-office talk therapy. Sessions are up to 1.5 hours, using relational therapeutic experiences (art, play, experiential, and talk too), based on the interests of the young person. I work with young people in experiencing the tools that will help them to resolve their concerns, giving them the opportunity to practice in their life-space. Appointments are available for evenings and weekends. I prefer to come to you for young children as they are more comfortable at home.

Welcome to my therapy practice! As a compassionate and experienced social worker with a Master of Social Work and Clinical specialization from the University of Calgary, I bring a unique blend of therapeutic approaches to support individuals and couples through life's challenges. My expertise spans across various age groups, including children, adolescents, adults, and seniors.

You are searching for answers, perhaps stuck, and may feel a bit lost about how to find your way forward. You can be sensitive, intense, and passionate and you're interested in living from a place of aliveness, well-being, and spark. You may have a history of trauma, suffering, and loss and yet you are also a survivor. I look forward to working with you, attending to both the suffering and the resilience, the loss and the grace; to listening to and affirming the melody beneath your words. I work with several provisional and registered psychologists at Foothills Integrative Psychology and Neurotherapy. How can we help?

I specialize in providing Cognitive Behaviour Therapy (CBT), which helps individuals become aware of negative thought patterns and behaviours. This approach helps to increase feelings of confidence, and positive thinking. CBT paired with Mindfulness allows for clients to become aquatinted with their thoughts, and moods, while simultaneously developing a new relationship with them. This approach can benefit those who suffer form depression, anxiety, other mood disorders, anger issues or anyone who desires to have a stronger sense of happiness in their daily life. The approach can be modified for all ages and cognitive abilities.

I specialize in trauma related symptoms and concerns. As an EMDR certified therapist I can help with complex trauma, relational trauma, phobias, mood and relationship concerns. I offer treatment intensives and day retreats. Depression, anxiety relationship concerns are often symptoms of trauma and we can explore healing further with EMDR and somatic therapies. I also support individuals and their family members struggling with stress, behaviour problems, communication difficulties, marital concerns, and co-parenting issues after separation and divorce. often a little help can change the direction to a more positive one.

If you are reading this, a part of you is ready for change and to feel better.

Registered Psychologist. I work with couples struggling with relationship dissatisfaction, as well as, adults and adolescents struggling with anxiety, depression, PTSD, trauma, stress management, self-esteem, life transitions, and emotional wellness. I aim to provide a safe, understanding, and encouraging environment to help clients explore the difficulties they are facing. I work collaboratively with clients to provide the best tools possible to help them achieve their goals and live their best lives.

Evening and weekend appointments available in person or virtual. I hold a deep seeded belief that we each are doing the very best that we can in any given moment. I believe no one is exempt from struggle and at times it is difficult to know how we got to this painful place, and at other times an event (trauma) takes place which can leave us not recognizing ourselves or our life. I offer a safe validating space to heal and rediscover how you want to show up in your life. If you are feeling overwhelmed, stuck or wanting support in any area of your life, please reach out to me. I would be honored to be a part of your healing journey.

At Kindred Roots, we match with clients based on a personality, not a problem - we see the person first! Our team understands that no two people are alike. We may go through the same things, but experience them very differently. As a team of social workers by training, we value the deep understanding of the bigger picture and the many ways that life can begin feeling completely out of our control. We are knowledge seekers, problem solvers and the worlds loudest advocates. We ask you to come as you are, and in return we promise to do the same.

Personal distress is manageable. The majority of life stressors that contribute to distressing feelings fall into three categories that include relationship difficulties, internal factors (troubling or uncomfortable thoughts) and difficult life events (past and present). Depression and anxiety often occur when these factors go unresolved. I use cognitive-behavioural and solution focused strategies to help my clients develop manageable goals for resolving distress. Each client has the capacity for change and the evidenced based strategies that I use in my practice are an effective way to help overcome barriers to success.
