Whether you are struggling with deep seated patterns of anxiety, depression, relationship issues, the lingering impact of trauma, or difficulty understanding where you are headed, Beyond the Pines Therapy is here for you. My name is Kenton Klassen, I am a Psychodynamic Psychotherapist and Registered Clinical Counsellor offering compassionate and relational therapy to adults and teenagers. My approach is non-directive, collaborative, and highly exploratory.
The latest neuroscience confirms that we are formed in relationship, harmed in relationship, and healed in relationship. If you are feeling lost in the woods, it’s worth trying a relational psychotherapy approach that works beneath the surface.
In our quick fix culture, where insurance companies incentivize one-size-fits-all treatments, it can be difficult to find depth-oriented therapy that prioritizes authentic engagement with your story. If you are interested in stepping onto a path toward lasting psychological change, I would be happy to meet with you for a free 20 minute consultation.

How is a mind formed? Many of our struggles are related to the formative impact of relational experiences, thought patterns, and emotions that remain outside our awareness but shape our day-to-day lives in numerous ways. Many therapies focus on quick solutions to lower distress, but without working with deeper psychological structures, this distress often returns.
