My name is Kelsy Mag and, like you, I have had experiences in my life that have informed the ways I show up in and view the world. Being queer and neurodivergent I have had experiences that have led me to work from an anti-oppressive and strengths-based lens in my therapeutic space. I like working with people who are 2SLGBTQ+, neurodivergent, highly-sensitive, adults, students, and those who are tired of diets and feeling like their body is wrong. I work both in-person and virtually with Curio Counselling in Calgary.
My therapeutic approach is client centered and it draws from various modalities. The therapeutic relationship will be a focus of our work together and I have a genuine interest in your experiences. My clinical focus is self-concept, anxiety, depression, religious trauma, ADHD, relationship issues, and fat liberation; you will not hear diet talk from me.
If you need help navigating your world or overcoming challenges I would be honoured to be able to help you find change and improvement. We will walk through your therapy journey together and will develop our treatment plan and goals collaboratively. Feel free to reach out so we can discuss your needs and wants for therapy and how we might work together.

I work with clients who are struggling with depression and anxiety that may be related to having ADHD, being 2SLGBTQ, or their relationship with their body. If you are tired of trying to shrink your body and yourself to "take up less space" in the world, I want to hear about it. We will collaboratively unpack the related emotions, agree on goals, and make a plan to work towards change.
