Accepting clients for online video counselling during the COVID-19 pandemic. Work on stress, anxiety, depression, bipolar, ADHD and PTSD.
About
I am a registered psychologist specializing in Depression, Anxiety, ADHD, Bipolar Disorder, and PTSD. I previously conducted research at the University of Alberta, designing a treatment center intended to treat children of sexual abuse. I completed my Master's degree in counselling psychology at City University in Edmonton, Alberta. Prior to that I completed two Bachelor degrees in Psychology and Organizational Studies with a specialization in human resources. I aim to provide my clients with as much time and comfort as they need until they feel safe and secure.
My counselling philosophy is based on mindfulness and cognitive behavioral therapy practices. You may find that you often behave or think in ways to rid yourself of unwanted feelings and emotions. However, through counselling, you can learn to accept and become more tolerant of those negative thoughts and feelings.
Ultimately, your history plays a large role in how you experience the world today. You are the expert in your own life and our work together involves leveraging our mutual expertise in a way that will support you in living your healthiest, happiest and most enriching life.

Farrel Greenspan's Groups
Trauma Recovery Group
This 10-week trauma recovery group is designed for men and women with a history of abuse, maltreatment, and/or violence. It is a closed group, meaning that the facilitators will be working with the same participants throughout the entire series. Group activities will be focused on stabilizing the self, processing traumatic memories, and reconnecting with the community in a more healthy way. The cost of the entire series is $500 per participant. Prescreening interviews for the next group will take place in January 2014.
