Attachment-based Therapists in Stony Plain, AB

Seeking professional help may feel intimidating, but it’s also an incredible act of bravery. As wonderfully stated by Brene Brown, “Courage starts with showing up and letting ourselves be seen”. In my years of practice, my clinical focus has been centred around individuals with depression, anxiety, trauma, grief, stress, self-esteem concerns, relationship dynamics, life transitions...etc.

I am a Registered Psychologist, skilled at supporting individuals living with complex trauma, attachment deficits, difficulties with emotion regulation, and self-harming behaviours. I am committed to supporting individuals in identifying their own unique inner strengths and capacity for resilience, through an attachment lens, focused on building and strengthening relationships. I understand that people are the experts in their own lives and offer specific, individualized tools that they can utilize throughout their lives.

Welcome! Have you been contemplating therapy for quite some time now but feel overwhelmed and unsure of what your next steps should be? Maybe you are going through some new life transitions and the changes are causing stress or anxiety. Or, maybe you have experienced past life events that have made you feel like you are stuck and unable to move forward in a healthy way. These issues might be affecting your wellness and also your relationships, education, or career aspirations. I work holistically to support folks to deepen their connections to their mind, body, soul, spirit, emotions & community to ensure their goals are being met.

Ever since I can recall, I've been intrigued by the complexity of the human mind. My journey in psychology began as an undergraduate, where I delved into the foundational theories and the more I learned, the more I realized that psychology is not just a subject; it's a lens where we can understand ourselves and others. I believe that every individual's unique, and there is no one-size-fits-all solution to psychological well-being. My approach is deeply personalized, focusing on your specific needs, goals, and strengths. I work collaboratively with you to develop a tailored treatment plan that aligns with your values and aspirations.

Life often doesn’t go as planned & that’s ok! We all experience hard times. Let’s work together to achieve YOUR goals & explore your strengths. I believe you can lead a full & happy life while managing trauma, mental health or relationship stress. I believe in holistic healing. This means helping you to meet your emotional, physical, relational, & spiritual needs. One of my passions is to partner with nature, spirituality/ faith, & animals to create a safe space. I like to think outside the box & ideas of what therapy “should be “. We can be indoors or outdoors? Would you like our service Dog Doug to join our session ?

Taking the first step to talk things through can be the beginning of a shift that brings new hope and horizons. I am dedicated to supporting your emotional and mental health whether it be current or historical issues you are dealing with. I can draw upon various modalities to suit your unique self. Currently, I am offering a discounted rate for (in person only) A.R.T. (Accelerated Resolution Therapy) specific interventions as I work toward my certification.

Take a moment to imagine what could be better. Could this include feeling less overwhelmed, experiencing more regulated and happier emotions, improving your relationships, or having more success at work or school? My extensive experience and training with adults, teens and children has developed into a specialization that will support you to reach your goals. This could include decreasing anxiety, improving mood, supporting ADHD or learning disability, addictions and trauma. Group therapy is an option that can be more cost effective than individual therapy and an opportunity to meet others. I offer psychoeducational assessment.

Hi there! My Name is Amanda and I am a Registered Psychologist working with clients within the Beaumont, Spruce Grove and virtual communities. Throughout my career I have had the pleasure of working with individuals who are feeling stuck, are experiencing anxiety and depression, diagnosed with personality disorders, have survived both "big and small" trauma's or who are wrestling with finding their purpose or sense of identity. I view the therapy space through a trauma informed, attachment focused and client-centered lens.

Humor, genuine compassion and empathy are necessary for healing - especially the humor part! Which is why they are benchmarks of my clinical practice. Combined together, the healing force created is a 'game changer' in people's lives. My approach to psychotherapy is person centered (congrats, you are unique! Your therapy should be too), grounded in attachment theory (relationships are our friend! Don't argue...everyone needs a friend) and developmental psychology (we all go through life changes, change suucks, but it's unavoidable). All this guides our path to wellness. Heads up - standard credential speech ahead...

Feeling distant from your spouse? Fighting with your teen? Struggling with anger, anxiety, depression, or addiction? Experienced trauma? I work with a variety of clients, but particularly enjoy problems in which clients that have felt misunderstood or mistreated. This includes working with adolescents, parent-teen conflict, relationship difficulties in both individuals and couples, addictions, anger or anxiety management, trauma, and Borderline Personality Disorder. In many of the clients I see, fear and confusion are often barriers to a satisfying life. Healing often comes through gaining confidence in areas one can control.

Facing life’s challenges alone can be overwhelming. I am committed to creating an open and safe environment for individuals to share, engage, learn, and reflect. Working from a trauma-informed, anti-oppressive approach, I strive to ensure that everyone I work with feels welcomed, understood, and valued. I believe that this is the way to heal and I invite the whole person: body, feelings, inner parts, and culture, into a non-judgmental space. Healing and wholeness are possible with empathy and connection.

Hi! I'm glad you're here. Speaking from experience, I know asking for help and prioritizing your mental health is hard. Facing the difficult aspects of your life is scary and it's easier to stay in the same patterns that have helped you survive. If you find those patterns don’t work for you anymore, it could be worth it to take that leap and reach out- and I'd love to take that step with you! I work with individuals, couples, and LGBTQIA+ community members dealing with anxiety, depression, personality disorders, trauma, and relationship issues. I am also trained to assess for and diagnose ADHD and Autism Spectrum Disorder.

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.

Do you feel anxious, or worry about everything? Maybe you're filled with dread and don't know why. Do you have a million thoughts constantly running through your mind and you can't get a decent night’s sleep? Maybe you're feeling hopeless and don't know where to go or what to do. Your relationships are suffering and you're feeling alone. If you're confused about your emotions and how to cope with them, I offer a safe and non-judgmental space where for you to express your feelings.

I believe in tailoring therapy to you; incorporating elements of your life and history so each meeting feels authentic, meaningful and paves the way for change. This might include first building a narrative around your current concern, working on strategies to tackle symptoms, or diving deeper into the past and the root of your concerns. Whatever the goal, you're in charge of how you want your therapeutic experience to look. I work with children and adults and have a special interest working with anxiety, ADHD, relationship concerns, divorce, trauma, mood disorders, emotional regulation, and suicidal ideation.
