You don't need a specific problem to come into counselling. If you feel something is unbalanced, or you just want to work on strengthening your personal relationships and embracing your life...counselling with Dr. Esha can help! You deserve to feel good and have rewarding enjoyable relationships. It is time to fight your negative inner voice and find relief. Dr. Esha Chakraborti is a Registered Psychologist who works to gently challenge you towards personal growth.

I am a dedicated and experienced Canadian Certified Counsellor with a profound commitment to helping individuals navigate the complexities of their emotional well-being. With an extensive background in the field, I have dedicated my career to addressing a wide range of psychological concerns, including anxiety, depression, trauma and relationship issues.

I understand that seeking therapy can be a challenging step, especially when you've felt unable to be your authentic self. If you find yourself at a point where the weight of life's challenges feels overwhelming, or if you're navigating the complexities of identity, changes in life, relationships, or expectations, I am here to support you. My goal is to facilitate your journey of self-discovery and to empower you with insight into what brings you here.

In my initial sessions, clients usually say, “I want someone that gets me.” This is a shared feeling; I also want my therapist to “get me” and connect with me. Hence, I use evidence-based approaches to build this connection with my clients, honoring their stories and enabling them to feel heard, unjudged, and respected. This alliance, I believe, is fundamental to the results we collaboratively attain in therapy. I work with children, teens, young adults, seniors, couples, and families from a person-centered, systemic, and strength-based lens.

Not current taking on new clients... Hello! Thank you for perusing my profile. I am a registered psychologist with close to 20 years of clinical experience. I am dedicated to supporting people through difficult times and circumstances. I have an open, non-judgemental demeanour and pride myself in my understanding of and passion for diversity. My areas of clinical expertise include anxiety, depression, grief, mindfulness, relationship difficulties, identity challenges, career orientation, work-related stress, and anger management, to name but a few examples.

Do strong emotions and memories impact how you live? Unresolved trauma and chronic stress can create negative thoughts and feelings and negatively impact our overall well-being. We may experience anxiety/depression, addiction, chronic stress, etc. Coping mechanisms may become ineffective or even harmful over time. Are you new to therapy - or have been to therapy before - call to discuss how trauma therapy may help.

I orient my counselling approach based on the client's needs. I am happy to be offering therapy to a diverse range of people. I especially love working with young adults, youth, international students, artists, creatives, and LGBTQ2Splus individuals. I work with anyone struggling with depression, anxiety, life transitions, PTSD, substance use, grief, and loss. I am also open to working with pet owners who are experiencing grief related to the loss/death of their fur baby.

I am a Registered Provisional Psychologist offering psychological assessment services (e.g., ADHD assessment) and psychotherapy. I believe that everyone has the ability to make lasting positive changes in their lives and finding a psychologist that fits with you is part of that process. I prioritize diversity, and an open and collaborative therapeutic relationship. If you are an adult struggling with ADHD, racial identity issues, stress, chronic pain, depressed mood, anxiety, chronic illness, grief, relationship difficulties, career dissatisfaction, sleep difficulties, or work-related stress, please feel free to reach out.

Our clients seek support from the Wayfound clinic to navigate the complexities of their emotional well-being. They may grapple with a range of issues including PTSD, anxiety, depression, trauma, or stress stemming from various life transitions. Their needs extend beyond mere coping mechanisms; they crave understanding, validation, and practical strategies to reclaim control over their mental health journey. With a desire for genuine connection and effective tools, they aim to cultivate resilience, find inner peace, and foster a sense of purpose in their lives.

I recognize that everyone's path and journey is multi layered and multi-dimensional, based on one's ethnicity, culture, religion, gender, sexual orientation, generation, etc. and what exists at that point of intersection is unique. I would love to join you on your own unique journey and help you gain insight on what brings you here. I enjoy working with individuals including young adults and seniors, couples, families – nuclear, joint and extended families. My areas of expertise include depression, anxiety, relationship concerns, stress, grief and loss, self-esteem, racial and sexual minorities and immigrant populations.

I was born and raised in Calgary, Alberta raised by immigrant parents. As a child I struggled with fitting in and those feelings still impact me today. Through my own journey, I have recognized that I have a passion for helping others become better versions of themselves which led me to pursuing education in Psychology . My belief is that in order for us to be our best self, we need the space, tools and support to examine factors that influence the choices we make that take us away from living the life we desire. Examining our past can be helpful in understanding our present and lead us to live happier and healthier futures.

I believe that psychology is a tool for solving problems and working through change. In my career, I have helped many people 'get unstuck', overcoming emotional difficulties and working through trauma, grief, and loss. I also regularly work with couples and families, helping with challenges including marital conflict and parenting difficulties. My approach is integrative, and tailored to each person that I meet. I draw upon a number of evidenced-based approaches, including emotion-focused therapy, psychodynamic therapy, cognitive-behavioural therapy, experiential therapy, motivational interviewing, and solution-focused therapy.
