My personal and professional journey offers experience in addictions, relationships, bereavement, trauma, anxiety, depression, and other areas of mental health. I obtained a degree in Addictions Counselling in 2000 and have since worked closely with substance abuse and behavioural addictions. I later went on to receive a Master of Arts in Counselling Psychology to advance my competencies in working with the complexities of couple and family relationships, and efficacy in working with other mental health concerns.

The human brain is an amazing tool with incredible possibilities. However, sometimes this wonderful tool can generate states and thoughts that are not as useful to us. Luckily our mind is also flexible, which means that with some intentional adjustments we can often change how we think, feel and behave. In a way, therapy is all about getting to know ourselves and using our mind’s own tricks to our advantage, to facilitate the changes we want to see.

I am an Indigenous Registered Psychologist who works from an Indigenous perspective. I provide Indigenous counselling and create a safe place for clients to heal in a way that they want to heal. Clients are experts in their own lives but may need some guidance on accessing their inner knowledge. We can work together to help you to stand in your power and be your authentic self. I believe in building relationships with not only ourselves but also our difficulties. I offer holistic, relationship-focused, genuine, empathic, and grounding therapy.

Registered Provisional Psychologist.

I aim to provide a safe, understanding, and encouraging environment to help clients explore the difficulties they are facing.

I believe that every individual has a story. I also believe that every individual has been wounded along the way. My hope is to support those on their path to healing.

Reaching out and researching professionals who can help can be an intimidating and overwhelming experience. However, finding the right fit for you (or a family member) is absolutely critical to achieving the results you are wanting. So allow me to introduce myself... My name is Dawn Furlong and I am a Registered Psychologist serving Okotoks and surrounding areas. I provide individual counselling services to individuals ages 16 and up. I have a wide range of experience working with youth and adults from many different backgrounds. I am also very interested in developing my practice as a parent consultant.

Following an extensive career as a registered nurse, with experience in critical care, cardiology, and family medicine, I have thoroughly enjoyed learning how I can better help others who are in need of support. I have worked alongside adult individuals who have endured childhood, developmental, and acute trauma, anxiety, depression, grief, loss, and addiction. It is a privilege to walk alongside my clients as they grow and expand in self-awareness, self-determination, compassion for themselves, and overall confidence to live their best life.

I work with young people who struggle with anxiety, self-worth, self-confidence, self-expression, and coping skills. My sessions are not the traditional 50-minute in-office talk therapy. Sessions are 1.5 hours, using relational therapeutic experiences (art, play, experiential, and talk too), based on the interests of the young person. I work with young people in experiencing the tools that will help them to resolve their concerns, giving them the opportunity to practice in their life-space. Appointments are available for evenings and weekends.

Reduced rates for those with financial need. I work with children, youth and adults to build healthy coping skills and relationships within themselves and with others. Healthier relationships between parents and their children are key to improving self confidence and overall mental health. Often children/youth want to have closer relationships with their parents/caregivers (even if they may show you the opposite) but both have difficulty communicating their needs. As a result, there becomes a disconnect between parent and child.

EVENING AND WEEKEND AVAILABILITY. I am a Registered Psychologist and I work with adults and teens/youth presenting with a variety of issues including depression, anxiety, trauma, self-esteem, anger management, sleep difficulties, and overall life transitions and difficulties. I believe that life can be a beautiful journey but at times along the way we can experience difficulties and have moments in which we lose our way. I believe when given the right tools and support people can overcome stressful life events.

Anxiety and trauma can make us feel stuck and overwhelmed, but there is hope. Let me pour you a cup of coffee or tea and let's talk. Anxiety and trauma no longer has to take over you and your world. You deserve to live a fulfilling life. I can help you find the answers you are looking for and start to live the life you want. I know how intimidating it can be to reach out to a therapist, but take a deep breath and connect with me. If you are too nervous to call you can always book your appointment online through my website.

I work with individuals & couples with a variety of issues including addictions, trauma, PTSD, depression, anxiety, relationship wellness, anger management, life stress, self-harm, infertility, unresolved trauma, grief, and sexual identity. I value a collaborative approach whether offering support or working to look at the thoughts, feelings, and behaviours that are keeping you stuck in unhealthy or unsatisfying patterns. My goal is to help you recognize your strengths and potential, increase positive life experiences, and build capacity to cope with life's struggles. * LGBTQ affirming

You are searching for answers, perhaps stuck, and may feel a bit lost about how to find your way forward. You can be sensitive, intense, and passionate and you're interested in living from a place of aliveness, well-being, and spark. You may have a history of trauma, suffering, and loss and yet you are also a survivor. I look forward to working with you, attending to both the suffering and the resilience, the loss and the grace; to listening to and affirming the melody beneath your words. I work with several provisional and registered psychologists at Foothills Integrative Psychology and Neurotherapy. How can we help?
