Veterans Affairs Canada (VAC) Therapists in Sherwood Park, AB

At Wholeness Psychology Centre, we work with a variety of concerns, including trauma, depression, anxiety, addictions, identity crisis, and relationship conflict. We recognize that short-term, solution-focused modalities are appropriate for some presenting concerns. For others, a more heart-centred, holistic, depth-oriented approach to therapy is necessary. Our team has the skills and training in both areas to best meet your therapeutic needs and goals. Our approach is multifaceted and involves working with several layers simultaneously and getting to the core of your experience and needs in assessments and counselling.

As a Canadian Certified Counsellor, I believe one of the biggest hurdles in overcoming our troubles is thinking we’re all alone. Asking for help is no longer considered a weakness. In fact, it can be one of the most influential, life-altering decisions we can make for ourselves. Because when we talk about our feelings, they often become less overwhelming, less upsetting, and less worrisome. I can work with most concerns such as chronic pain, couples/marriage, pain management, families, teens, and life stresses.

I believe that we should all have the skills and tools to be successful and resilient while finding your voice. I believe that confidence and self-esteem are important in our lives and that our goals should be consistent with our own desires. I work from a holistic perspective and hope that even though the skills we work on may be sport-specific but that you can adapt those skills to work in other areas of your life. My goal as a sport and performance psychologist is to help change sport and performance culture to be a more healthy community while also reducing mental health stigma.

I have an extensive background in working with couples, individuals dealing with stress and trauma, and in helping parents with complex needs children and teens. I also have an interest in working with individuals with Borderline Personality Disorder, OCD, and Major Depressive Disorder. My clients typically seek her out to help stabilize their communication styles, mood, and to regain their sense of personal competence and wellbeing. I have been the team lead and trainer for many learning therapists working with complex families and individuals with significant mental health needs.

My passion is to support individuals to help improve their overall wellbeing and to support the personal growth they are striving for. I support clients with anxiety, depression, stress, and self-esteem.

I am a Registered Social Worker who holds an undergraduate degree in Social Work from the University of Victoria and Master’s degree in Social Work with a Clinical Specialization from University of Calgary. I am an experienced social worker who works with clients that are experiencing a variety of difficulties that may include anxiety, depression, grief, stress, insomnia, self-esteem, and life transition challenges. Additionally, I have completed specialized training in the treatment of stress and trauma related disorders.

I am passionate about helping and supporting adolescents and adults through life's many obstacles, such as depression, anxiety, ADHD, life transitions, relationship issues, self-esteem, and job/academic performance issues. I work with Clients to identify their strengths and resources so they can use them to manage problems and find solutions so that each client can discover and reach their preferred outcome. I work with clients collaboratively, which means we both bring unique skills to the counselling session and work together towards the client's preferred outcome.

I love working with trauma and have specialized experience with first responders. I get how it changes the way you think, feel and act so can work with emotional dysregulation and behavioural issues too. Addiction is common, and so often a way to cope, and it's the underlying issues I love to nurture and heal. At times, I work with people struggling in relationships, sometimes with themselves, or as they adjust to relationship change or loss. Other times I support people as they life navigate transitions, such as employment changes, navigating pregnancy and parenthood, or coming to terms with health issues, and/or effects of aging.
