Family Therapy in Sherwood Park, AB

I am a Registered Canadian Certified Counselor with over 6 years of experience working in the mental health field working with children, youth, adults, couples, and families. Todd strongly believes that everyone has the potential to make progress and achieve the changes they desire.

I am a therapist with a wealth of knowledge from life experiences and education. My intuitive nature will often see connections that you may not have…yet. I have supported clients with a wide range of challenges including mother wounds, depression, anxiety, relational issues, school stress, career changes, abandonment wounds, and many other life stressors. I believe everyone has the potential for personal growth and I am thrilled to help guide you to the answers within you. I can provide Christian counselling by request, however, this is not normally integrated into sessions unless mentioned.

I am honoured to support people in finding their path to healing. I believe that we have our own capacity to move through difficult times and know that taking this step can be pretty tricky. My approach is gentle and fairly eclectic, I tend to use the modality that best suits the clients needs with an attachment based lens. I tend to focus on play therapy and emotion focused therapies with children as well as utilize some dyad work. With adults I tend to use EMDR, trauma processing, solution focused therapy, person centred and emotion focussed therapy modalities. I offer a free 15 minute consultation to ensure I am the right fit.

I strive to provide a safe and non-judgemental therapeutic environment where clients feel comfortable to share how they are experiencing life and where they are struggling. My focus is to meet my clients where they are at and to work collaboratively with them to make the changes they want to see in their lives. I specialize in helping those who experience anxiety, depression, difficulty in relationships, anger issues, and life transitions. I support clients to challenge themselves, evaluate patterns, explore their inner experiences, increase awareness of emotions, and to process past hurts so that they can heal and move forward.

I am a relationship specialist for couples and individuals. Do you want to revitalize your relationship and nurture a connection that will last a lifetime? With my three-step process, I will help you create an emotionally safe and nurturing environment that is based on honest, open, and productive communication resulting in each of you feeling heard and validated.

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.

Our team of counsellors, social workers, and psychologists are available to support you on your mental health journey. We understand that life can sometimes be challenging and complicated, especially as people, relationships, and the needs of the family evolve and change. The quality of our relationships impact how we cope, relate and respond. We believe that having positive connections and strong, consistent support are essential to a persons health, wellbeing, and quality of life. Our community of therapists provide a safe and healthy environment of support for individuals, couples, teens, parents, and families.

Life is full of unexpected events that can leave us feeling confused, lost, overwhelmed and sometimes alone. I understand that each story is unique.

I work in collaboration with clients to assist in identifying core strengths. I keep a manageable client list so you aren’t left waiting weeks for an appointment. Book online today!

Hello! My person-centered approach influences the therapy I offer clients, allowing the opportunity for emotional processing and self-exploration and growth in a non-judgmental atmosphere. My practice includes therapy for adults of all ages and genders, adolescents, individuals, couples and families. My clinical expertise is in treating clients who are living with a variety of issues such as depression, self-harm, grief and loss, abuse and trauma, stress, self-esteem concerns, and interpersonal struggles, relationship, marriage and family difficulties, LGBTQ+ and sexuality, addictions and substance abuse, and personality and mood disorders (i.e. bi-polar disorder), and anxiety.

I work with clients ranging from youth, ages 11-19 and adults/couples, wither varying concerns from anxiety, stress, relationships, family dynamics, anger, emotion control, low self-esteem, OCD, ADHD, sport performance & other concerns. They struggle with understanding how to cope with these issues and the tools necessary to make progress and not have these issues impact their life the way they are. They want someone to understand their perspective & provide them with tools to help make their life easier/happier. I also work with many couples. My ideal client is one that wants to make change & is open to the process.

I am passionate about supporting clients as they navigate the gentle unravelling of thoughts, feelings, and beliefs born out of past wounding while paying special attention to the ways in which family of origin, early relationships, and adverse or traumatic events impact an individual’s ability to be in relationship with the Self and with others. My therapeutic approach is person-centered and trauma-informed, recognizing that humans belong to and live within numerous complex systems that influence their overall health and well-being.

All individuals are born with inherent skills and resources for connection and a satisfying life and interruptions in this process can lead to rigid patterns and beliefs. My goal is to support clients to address their situations by identifying current patterns, and exploreing new ways in navigating concerns. I advocate for self-awareness, self-acceptance, and provide tools for change, aligning with the principles of various therapeutic modalities. My training and experience in Cognitive Behavior Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Acceptance & Commitment Therapy (ACT), Emotionally Focused Therapy.
