Therapists in Calgary, AB

I have worked with individuals, couples and families in a variety of settings. I am experienced in working with individuals of all ages who are battling with childhood traumas (sexual/physical abuse), and who struggle with a variety of mental health issues such as Tourettes, ADHD/ADD, Fetal Alcohol Effect, Autism Spectrum Disorders, Reactive Attachment Disorder, Anxiety Disorder and OCD. I have over a decade of experience working with families in crisis, parent/teen conflict, relationship/marriage difficulties, custody/access conflict, addictions, survivors of sexual/physical abuse, depression, and anger management issues.

I work with individuals, couples and families who are struggling with everyday coping, relational issues, parenting concerns, psychological wellness and relationship functioning. I specialize in depression, anxiety, grief and loss, infertility experiences, existential questioning, couple and marital relationship issues, parenting concerns and coping, and relational systemic therapeutic approaches. I work with people to move towards change-oriented solutions by reducing distress, improve coping and mental health skills and understanding relational patterns. I support & offer a safe space for diversity, LGBTQIA+ and BIPOC communities.

Many of us have lost touch, abandoned, forgotten, or detached from the things that make us unique, bring us joy, and motivate us to build the life that we want to live. This sense of loss can produce many side effects such as anxiety, addiction, and depression. It can also cause us to attract relationships or people in our lives that are out of alignment with our soul's essence causing conflict, confusion, and chaos. If you are feeling lost, alone, confused, anxious, or rejected by others and or yourself - these can be clues that you have lost connection with important parts of yourself.

I am here to help you build your awareness to expand your choices for wellness. I am not a healer, I am a helper for you to find your own way to self-healing. With compassionate curiosity, we can work together on depression, anxiety, anger issues, eating disorders, relationship problems, grief and loss, cultural/identity issues, gender and sexuality issues, parent-child conflict, intimacy and attachment issues, intergenerational trauma, abuse, bullying, behavior problems, soul wounds and health issues.

Are you a person who is focused on getting the most out of life? Are you trying to create a rich and fulfilling life (e.g., meaningful career, quality family time, close and intimate relationships, active self-care and health) but finding it impossible to juggle it all and strike a sustainable balance? Do you feel pulled in so many directions that you are failing to show up wholeheartedly in any one area of your life and feel overwhelmed, exhausted, or uninspired as a result? Is there a part of you that knows you're capable of showing up more authentically and enthusiastically in your life?

Your needs are important, and I am here to help you feel supported and validated, whether you are seeking support for yourself, with your partner or as a family. You will always feel listened to in my counselling room. A counselling approach that uses emotion to change emotion is powerful and offers so much hope. It is effective with couples and individuals alike. Meeting your unique needs is what matters most, so I am flexible and incorporate a range of interventions that will help you reach your goals. Counselling is not "one size fits all"; it is a creative process of working together to help you feel in control of your life.

I am a down-to-earth therapist whose main orientation is to help clients have more of the lives they want. No matter what the specific issues are - anxiety, depression, eating issues, relationships, family stress, work issues, mental health concerns, and so on - I endeavour to help my clients feel, think, and behave in ways that fit better for them and are ultimately more productive. In the safe space of counselling clients are able to explore themselves, their patterns, and life-obstacles in order to connect to their greater sense of purpose, wholeness, and groundedness.

I have over 30 years of experience working therapeutically with individuals from all walks of life and look forward to honoring your lived experience and supporting you in your journey toward living a rewarding, authentic life. I have a keen interest in the areas of depression and other mood disorders, anxiety, communication, addiction, and mental health issues, postpartum, grief, relationships, and conflict. I feel my addiction and mental health nursing experience along with my counselling experience bridges the medical model and the psychosocial/behavioral models to empower you to become your best self.

I want to help you tap into your innate capacity to heal - help you become open to experience, learn to trust yourself, develop an internal evaluation of yourself and have a willingness to continue growing. In private practice, I provide individual, family, marital/relationship, and group counselling. I treat people across the lifespan including children, adolescents (e.g. navigating identity), adults (e.g. working through relationships, parenting, and career issues), and the elderly (grief and life transitions).

I am a Clinical Psychologist with a family-focused practice and over 15 years of experience. Children, youth, families, and parents/caregivers often see me when there are concerns about behavior, sleep, anxiety, emotion regulation, family and peer relationships, adjustment (e.g., parental separation, medical diagnosis), and disrupted attachment (e.g., foster care, adoption). Adults seek my services when they have concerns and goals related to relationships, coping, and adjustment. I have worked in diverse settings including children’s hospitals, school districts, a not-for-profit organization, and my private practice.

I acknowledge how much strength and courage it takes to meet with a Psychologist to work through life's challenges. I recognize the importance of building a strong therapeutic connection that is client-centered, empathetic, respectful, and non-judgmental. My counselling style is collaborative and promotes empowerment by increasing self-awareness, highlighting strengths, facilitating growth and development, and honouring one's own insights. I have experience working with clients who are struggling with a diverse range of issues including depression, anxiety, stress, life transition, self-esteem, body image, eating issues, relationship challenges, family of origin issues, career counselling, and grief.

As a fellow immigrant with a Bachelor's in Sociology and a Master's in Counselling Psychology, I bring over 13 years of experience in human resources and career advising specifically tailored for immigrants. I deeply understand the unique struggles you face—from the complexities of adjusting to a new culture to the pressures of re-establishing your career while supporting your family. Immigrants endure a distinctive blend of stressors that encompass not only professional aspirations but also the very essence of personal and social life.

My career has centered around my primary area of interest concerning relationship dynamics and the impact and understanding of insecurity, frustration, anxiety and loss. I am passionate about supporting parents in understanding the influence of early life experiences and how those shape emotional development and our ability to remain connected to our children. My work is influenced by attachment-based therapy, narrative therapy, humanistic and experiential play approaches.

People go to therapy for many reasons, and all of them are equally valid. Whatever your reason is, I am so glad that you are here. You may be considering therapy right now because you are feeling stuck - stuck in difficult thoughts, feelings, emotions, behaviours, relationships, and/or situations. Or, you may be mostly doing fine and want to develop self-awareness and understanding to become the best version of yourself and to live your life to the fullest.
