Elders (65+) Therapists in Saskatoon, SK

I’m committed to listening with an open heart and mind, and walking beside you as you navigate life’s most difficult challenges. I will create a safe space that empowers you. Together, we will explore the root cause of your difficulties, and develop coping strategies to address them.

I wish to create and function from a nonjudgmental stance that is influenced by empathy and compassion. I am led by my gentle curiosity and have found this to be useful in supporting clients. Maybe you struggle with your mental health; or addictions; or are just feeling overwhelmed? Do you need someone to support and listen to you? I consider it an honour and privilege to journey with you. So, let's work together to find ways that empower you to find change.

Pain, heartache and suffering is not something anyone anticipates experiencing. When it comes out of no-where it may seem too unbearable to handle. Individuals may suppress what they are feeling, behave in ways they never thought they would, and/or experience secondary symptoms that mask what is truly going on! Whether it is the initial pain you are experiencing and/or years of wear and tear, please know that there is help available to you! I would be honoured to help you make sense of your experiences and take back control.

Do you find yourself repeating painful struggles? Or experiencing anxiety that you just don't know how to hold or what to do with? Do you continue to have problems or issues with your family or loved ones? Is what you are doing or have been doing leaving you feeling stuck, unhappy or frustrated with certain aspects of your life but can’t seem to make lasting changes no matter how hard you try? Life is a journey, not a destination. However, the quality of your present moment experience determines the overall satisfaction of that journey.

Are you struggling with any of the following: anxiety, eating difficulties, depression, stress, anger, trauma, grief and loss, suicidal ideation, relationship dynamics and family of origin concerns? I’m glad you found me here! I am a Registered Master level Social Worker with extensive experience in counselling, practicing in Saskatoon, SK. I work with clients from all walks of life, ranging from mid-teens to adults. I am passionate about working with people and offer a safe place to explore, process and create change in your life.

I have over 17 years of experience in the human services field. I offer counselling services to people who deal with anxiety, depression, and relationship issues. Some of my other specialties include divorce/separation, recent life changes, and stress management. It is rewarding for me to watch my clients achieve success with their professional life and grow in their personal lives. Due to the fact that I am a Registered Social Worker, the majority of insurers will reimburse you for my services. I also provide counselling through the NIHB program for Indigenous clients.

If you are feeling like you just can't live this way anymore, whether it is anxiety, depression, anger, addictions, or relationship issues, there is hope. I will help you develop a variety of skills and coping strategies for successfully managing home and work stress. I will help you overcome the fear that is holding you back from experiencing the life you want. I can certainly help you to develop the sophisticated cognitive-behavioral oriented skill to improve your relationships or manage your anger. I take a gentle, nonjudgmental, and safe counseling approach.

Pause. Exhale. Are you tired of talking but still feel stuck? Have you hit a dead end and still experience unresolved or unexplained thoughts, feelings, pain or other symptoms? I help people improve mental and physical health and performance through the application of behavioral learning principles to breathing physiology. This is not yoga. This is not meditation. This is applied psychophysiology. Breath Behavioral Analysis with biofeedback assisted breathing retraining, combined with Somatic Breath Therapy give you the tools to completely shift your breath and life. What if it could be as easy as adjusting your exhale?

Tansi and hello!! I am a holistic counsellor, I work very hard to do all my own work on my own self so that if there is something I would like you to try its because I believe in it and have seen it work on my own in my life. I myself am a recovered dual addict of crystal meth and I use my own life story to help others and see where they are at with their own struggles, especially if they struggle with connecting to their culture as Indigenous peoples who have majority been displaced. I work with all other demographics as well, different cultures and beliefs, as the work that I do is strength based and client focused.

Hi, I help people with trauma and anxiety. I have counselled/worked with many types of trauma over the years and continue to do so. In my counselling practice, I believe the client is the expert. Thus, I believe in a collaborative, empathic approach. Whatever your issues, needs, goals are, we can work collectively towards your healing, preferred goals and future. Are you seeking empowerment of self? Independence? Growing your self-esteem? Healing? My compassionate, trauma informed approach to counselling will focus on you and your personal journey to healing your sense of self and relationships with others.

Hi! I'm Tyson Kurtenbach, Registered Doctoral Psychologist. I graduated from the University of Saskatchewan with a Ph.D. in clinical psychology in 2016, and have been working in private practice since 2017 (formerly of Chartier Arnold Shimp & Associates). I have extensive training and a wealth of experience that I bring to my work with each of my clients, in order to help them identify and challenge unhelpful ways of thinking, feeling, and behaving that are leaving them feeling stuck and helpless. Together, I will work with you in building toward your vision of an ideal and worthwhile life, in a way that is meaningful and enduring.

Life can be hard. It’s even harder trying to make sense of it on your own. I can help you find a way to move forward. I see adults and couples across the life span to address a wide range of issues, including: depression, anxiety, trauma, addictions, relationship problems, physical and emotional abuse, problems within the workplace, grief and loss, and difficulties with life transitions. I warmly welcome clients from all walks of life.

Currently accepting new clients! It takes a lot of courage to begin a counselling journey, and my goal is to create a safe and compassionate environment for you to begin healing. My priority is finding the therapeutic approach that best suits your needs, beliefs, and goals. I use a collaborative approach so that you can guide me and show me where you need help the most. I am passionate about helping people identify their strengths and empowering clients to achieve growth to live their best lives.

Hi there, the past few years has really impacted all of us in various different ways. Having worked in the health care system for a number of years, I understand the dynamics that interplay when we are personally struggling. Our physical health, mental health, emotional health and spiritual health are all equally important. Those hardships, and stresses we face in life, such as financial burdens, grief, loss, isolation, family dynamics and medical circumstances to name a few, can bring us to a place where we might struggle to find the answers and ways in which to cope.

If you are feeling overwhelmed or like you are ready to make a change but you don’t know where to start…I want you to know that there is hope. I am here to hold space for you to encourage deep healing and growth. I know that vibrant health is possible when we provide ourselves a solid foundation, and I am here to help you start this process today. My approach to therapy is holistic in nature. I understand that in order to truly heal and thrive we must take care of not only our mental/emotional health, but our physical, and spiritual health as well. Everything is connected!

I work with a passion for guiding individuals towards emotional growth and change that reflects their wants and needs. I have an understanding that not every individual is the same, and all humans have different experiences, and responses to life. I establish trust and a nonjudgmental atmosphere. I gear towards active listening in order to deeply comprehend the concerns and needs of the individuals I see, fostering a strong therapeutic bond. With a nonjudgmental attitude, I will embrace individuals for who they are. Come on in, and let’s take this walk together.

I’m a Registered Doctoral Psychologist with over 20 years of experience providing treatment and training. It is important to know that all therapy is not created equal. Strategies, checklists, and skill building are helpful to relieve symptoms. Some want or need in-depth psychotherapy to address longstanding issues underlying their symptoms. I have extensive experience in assessing and providing the most efficient and cost effective treatment for each person’s needs and goals, and the highly specialized skills to provide in-depth treatment for those wishing to explore intensive insight-oriented treatment.

If you are feeling stuck, I want to help you find your inner voice and support you on your journey to healing, self-love, and acceptance. I will work collaboratively with you to help you reach your goals and guide you in exploring your thoughts and emotions. As we work together, you can feel more empowered, receive the support you need to be comfortable with your emotions, and increase your emotional resilience. My perspective is that people have strengths and inner resources, and I aim to help you access these and find your way to more self-compassion and self-confidence.

Experiencing trauma does not have to hold you back. I specialize in supporting those who are navigating how past childhood, relational, betrayal, intergenerational, or complex trauma may have impacted their relationship with themselves, their body, and with others. This may present itself as struggling with disordered eating, emotional eating, body image, self-esteem, attachment, relationship struggles, people pleasing, anxiety, and/or perfectionism. Together, we can process past trauma, nurture our unique nervous systems, break patterns that keep us feeling stuck, and move towards a life of self-trust and embodiment.
