Adults Therapists in Spruce Grove, AB

Hello! I am a Provisional Psychologist working within Spruce Grove, Edmonton, and other areas of Alberta through virtual means. In my career I have been able to work alongside many individuals in both clinical and medical settings. I work with adolescent populations, preteens, and adults . I have training and experience working with a variety of mental health concerns, including depression, anxiety, grief, relationship concerns and trauma. However, working alongside those who are recovering from eating disorders is one area I am particularly passionate about.

I am a Registered Psychologist in Alberta with over 15 years of experience working in a variety of mental health and social settings with clients from diverse cultural backgrounds. For 9 of those years I have had the honour of working directly with Indigenous individuals and communities. The areas that I specialize in include: trauma and PTSD, intergenerational trauma and the impact of residential schools and colonization, depression, anxiety, substance abuse/addiction, family of origin issues, self-esteem, emotional regulation, and relationship concerns. I provide therapy for adults and couples.

From a place of compassion, non-judgment, and curiosity, I work with clients of all ages, in French or English, to help them identify conscious and unconscious patterns of thoughts, core beliefs and behaviours that impact their current way of being in the world. I work with clients in mindfulness and self-attunement, connecting to the body's wisdom in order to make sense of their experiences. Clients are supported toward meaningful change that is sustained through updated beliefs, increased skills, improved self-awareness and a new way of standing in the world.

I enjoy working with children, teens, families and couples. My training is based on family systems theory, which strongly guides my practice. I believe in a strong, supportive and caring therapeutic relationship to help you through any struggles you may be experiencing. I want to help you to meet your goals and develop coping strategies that work for you. While I provide individual, couples and family sessions; I also complete psychoeducational assessments to help identify any academic, social or emotional needs of the clients that I work with.

I'm Kim Long and I love to be a resource for adolescents, veterans, and adults just like you. You become empowered to feel safer in an unpredictable world by effectively using the information your own mind, body, and emotions tell you. Like a GPS on a car, my job is to enable to you reach your destination by using the maps you provide. If we take a detour, it's my role to reroute and help clarify the connection between the information you provide and where you want to go.

You have unique thinking patterns, behaviours, beliefs, and ways of managing stressors, which all structure the way you live in this world. Over time, some of these may no longer serve you and/or may become less effective for many reasons. Through the therapy process, my hope is that I can work with you towards ongoing, meaningful growth and change. I will offer you the space to explore and work through your less than ideal circumstances, moving away from self-judgement, towards self-compassion and healing. When working with children and teens, I work collaboratively with caregivers to develop skills to support the areas of concern.

I am a Registered Psychologist that provides in person sessions in both Spruce Grove and Drayton Valley, Alberta and online services to the NWT and NT. I specialize in working with children, adolescents & adults with specialized training in play therapy, and trauma focused interventions. Another area of focus and enjoyment is working with couples, as they often struggle with placing their marriage as a priority, leading to discontentment and communication struggles. Areas of interest and experience include depression, anxiety, relationship challenges, family of origin, stress, trauma, addiction, and body image/weight management.

Dr. Janet Kaldas works with individual adults or teenagers, and with couples, and has experience with depression, anxiety, disordered eating, addictions, abuse/neglect, suicidality/self-harm, personality and relational issues. Her masters and doctoral research focused on perfectionism - if you feel a pressure to be or seem perfect and this adds another layer to your struggles, let's navigate this together.

As a Registered Psychologist and Registered Play Therapist, I come with over ten years of experience working with children, youth, adults , and families. I offer both in person and virtual services from Spruce Grove, AB and virtual services to the NWT. I have clinical/private, school-based, home, community and group home experience. Many of the children I work with present with trauma, attachment concerns, anxiety, depression, behavioural challenges and difficulties with regulation. Common concerns expressed from adults include stress management, life transitions, anxiety, depression, work-life balance and marital or family issues.

My belief is that psychology is not a “one size fits all” solution. Just as each person differs through their personality, qualities, and life experiences, so does the healing journey and plan of care for each individual client. If you are looking to understand your thoughts, feelings and behaviours and where they might stem from, you are in the right place. I work primarily with youth and adults who struggle with symptoms of depression, anxiety, symptoms of trauma, and who are dealing with increased stress overcoming life events.

Hi! I'm glad you're here. Let's face it, asking for help and prioritizing your mental health is really hard. Speaking from experience, I know that facing the difficult aspects of your life is scary and it is much easier to avoid them all together. However, I promise that reaching out for help can make your stuggles more manageable and less isolating. As a counselling psychology intern, I work with diverse populations of teens and adults to manage a variety of concerns.

Creating a space of safety and openness is at the centre of my approach to counselling. Working from a strength-based perspective, we will engage in a collaborative process where you are the expert of your life.

In my therapeutic approach, I aim to understand you and your world.

It is important for me to understand how you experience your world, so I can help you find solutions that fit for you. Together we will work collaboratively to figure out what is working for you and how to change the things that are not.

There are many reasons why people pursue counselling. Some want to address specific problematic behaviours. Others, long-term difficulties that have not yet been resolved. Some want to find alternate ways to cope while others want to discover more about themselves in order to live life more authentically. Whatever your concern, it is a privilege to support your personal therapeutic goals on your own self-development journey. I am a Registered Psychologist with the College of Alberta Psychologists and a member of the Psychologists Association of Alberta.

Life transitions, daily stressors, trauma, and mental illnesses can negatively influence the way we think, feel, and behave. These factors can cause us to feel "stuck" in old habits and patterns of thoughts, feelings, and behaviours that no longer serve us. I recognize that when we are stuck, it is difficult to make that first step towards change and reach out for support. Hence, I acknowledge you for making the first step into finding what works best for you. I understand that you want to take charge of your mental and emotional pain so that you can unlock your utmost potential.

I am a Registered Psychologist who is passionate about helping children, adolescents and young adults with emotional, academic and behavioral difficulties. I have been an educator and school counselor for the past 30 years and I am cognizant of the struggles that some children or youth experience in the regular school system. My experiences as a classroom teacher and school counselor have prompted a desire to work with students with learning, emotional and behavioral challenges in conjunction with their families.
