Therapists in Millarville, AB

My name is Mikaela Grigg and I am a Master’s level Registered Social Worker who has been working in the field since 2013. I also have gone on to complete additional specialized training regarding trauma treatment, therapeutic play, and attachment-based therapies, including my EMDR Parent-Child Attachment Specialist Certification. I value building strong therapeutic relationships, built on trust, patience, and genuine connection, so those who come into my office feel safe and supported as they share about their challenges, and we work towards their goals together. I provide counselling services for adults, youth and children.

Being a human is messy. No matter if you are a little, a teen or an adult human, this thing called life is challenging. School & home life can be affected by behaviours, challenges, emotions, & big life experiences such as trauma. We can untangle the mess, find the knots & frayed parts & learn to weave new strategies that make sense. Let's disrupt the default, try something new & figure out the why’s & how’s to best respond to your unique needs. I work with kids, teens, adults & elders when life gets really big. I work from an Integrative Psychotherapeutic framework & honour the harmony of the whole person.

Relationships are rarely without issue despite loving one another. We become confused about how relating became so difficult! Concerns become overwhelming resulting in deep hurt, uncertainty and distancing. In fact 80% of divorce is the result of emotional disconnect, and only 40% is due to high conflict. Neither have to happen. It is possible to have better, healthier, loving relationships! I work with you to help you both understand and use tools for your disconnects, strengths, triggers, and communication breakdowns. Relating is a learned process. We can learn to turn toward, not against or away from one another and enjoy again!

I specialize in helping people with their relationships, individually or as a couple. You will gain understanding and insight into what makes relationships work and learn skills and strategies to improve your relationships with others and that so important, relationship with yourself.

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.
