Coming to therapy can be difficult, especially for men. We're rarely taught how to talk about our feelings, or that it's even acceptable to share them. Whether as individuals, or as part of a couple, I provide an environment where you can talk openly, without shame or embarrassment. When working with couples, I use Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT) to help partners improve their connection. I ensure that both partners feel safe, acknowledging that it's often male partners who feel the most vulnerable in therapy.

Often described as having a calm presence, Sara Jungen, a Registered Psychologist, enjoys working with individuals, couples and families. Sara completed her B.A. (honours) in Psychology at the University of Calgary. After some time doing therapeutic work both locally and internationally, it became clear that in order to be of most benefit to others, she needed to further her training and delve deeper into her own process.

No one is meant to struggle alone. Our counselling team provides support to people of all ages dealing with various life issues, whether it is a parent seeking education and support in caring for their child, a person struggling with depression, a child dealing with anxiety, a couple trying to fortify a relationship that is under strain, or a sibling who needs support to understand their brother’s or sister’s disability. We strive to build a trusting bond with each of our clients and come alongside them in handling life’s challenging moments.

I am committed to helping clients achieve a greater sense of well-being, fulfillment and success through working collaboratively to develop better personal awareness, overcome limitations and implement effective strategies in order to live more inspired and purposeful lives. It has been an honor to work with hundreds of individuals and couples as a counsellor and coach in order to facilitate positive changes which enable greater sense of harmony and happiness. My passions include counselling and coaching people through career, business, sport, and life transitions; effectively managing anxiety and depression; relationship, family, and workplace challenges; and developing communication and leadership skills.

Difficulties exist in every corner. Do you feel that you are suffering from too much pressure right now, worrying about the various demands from all aspects of your life, or feeling breathless because of some recent major life events? Are you constantly disturbed by your painful memories, dissatisfied with the past, angry at others, and surrounded by a sense of helplessness? Do you often experience emptiness, confusion, and loneliness, have doubts about yourself, and are at a loss for the future? The time you noticed these experiences and started to think about reaching for help, your inner transformation is about to begin.

I strive to help clients identify and overcome their mental health concerns through a strength-based approach, with a focus on promoting self-awareness, developing coping skills, strategic problem-solving, and identifying and implementing attainable goals. My past experience as a crisis counsellor allows me to be comfortable and confident in navigating the challenging and uncomfortable situations that may present themselves through the course of counselling. My therapeutic style involves building resiliency, overcoming obstacles, seeing the learning opportunity in everything, and helping my clients build a happy and successful life.

I specialize in working with children and youth with learning differences. I am able to establish a bond with the young clients that fosters well-being and overcomes anxiety. This enables me to get a true picture of their strengths and areas for development. My experience as a teacher gives me a unique perspective when conducting psycho-educational assessments, preparing recommendations for learning, and working with schools to set up appropriate accommodations and IPPs. I am also experienced with the challenges of Gifted Learners. I join with the families to build their confidence and ability to support their childrens' growth

Whether you are working to overcome trauma, anxiety, depression, parenting or family problems, illness or other concerns, I believe I can support you in creating wellness in your life. I work with children, teens and adults, drawing interventions from cognitive behavioral, narrative, attachment-focused, and play therapy models. To support school-aged children with academic, social or emotional concerns, I also provide parent coaching and psychoeducational assessments so your child can achieve the best possible personal outcomes.

With extensive experience in both psychology and human resources, I am your first choice in helping you on your road to success.

I also conduct career assessments for people making educational and occupational decisions, or for managers and employees seeking coaching.

Accepting New Clients: If you are reading this, it is likely because you are looking for a safe and comfortable place to explore some difficult and at times even overwhelming topics. Whether for the first time, or the fifth time, you are hoping above all else to find someone you can feel comfortable talking with. You may be having thoughts like: “How can I be feeling this way…? Why don't I ever seem to feel happy…? Or, why can’t I handle everything the way I used to…?”These thoughts can come about for many reasons; including recent or past stress, trauma(s), substance use, anxiety, depression or other mental health challenges.

Are you looking for support and guidance during a time of painful loss, change or uncertainty? Like a mountaineer who guides others upwards, as your counsellor, I can help you journey through your inner terrain. Therapy is a process of guided personal exploration. My approach to therapy is collaborative rather than diagnostic and regardless of the issue, the primary goal is to open space from which your own answers can emerge from within you. Clients often speak of feeling more hopeful, self-confident and prepared to meet life's challenges. The examined life really can be well worth living.

Our lives are full of transitions. Are you at a crossroad, not sure how to move forward with what you want? Do you care for others and then neglect your own needs? Are you wanting to create space to listen to your own inner knowing? Do you want to access your creative imagination, discover how it can be a resource to help you move and decide? As part of our sessions we will use arts-based strategies such as writing, music, art, play and drama. Meaningful symbols and experiences can shine light on what is important. Would you like more practice acknowledging yourself, listening to your body, easing life's pressures and stresses?

I acknowledge how much strength and courage it takes to meet with a Psychologist to work through life's challenges. I recognize the importance of building a strong therapeutic connection that is client-centered, empathetic, respectful, and non-judgmental. My counselling style is collaborative and promotes empowerment by increasing self-awareness, highlighting strengths, facilitating growth and development, and honouring one's own insights. I have experience working with clients who are struggling with a diverse range of issues including depression, anxiety, stress, life transition, self-esteem, body image, eating issues, relationship challenges, family of origin issues, career counselling, and grief.

Do you feel weighed down by relationship issues, a breakup or divorce? It can feel overwhelming and frustrating when you don't know how to break painful cycles. You may feel exhausted and stuck in the same arguments with no resolution. It can feel like endless blame and criticism towards each other. When experiencing a breakup or divorce, you may wonder if you are worthy or even capable of love again. It can feel like you failed, and you might even think what is wrong with me. This is where I can help. Together, we can work to break these patterns and create tools to have a more peaceful happier love life.

In the early stages of our lives, we learn certain ways of coping and survival. This might have been ways of coping with your parents, or your school, or your peers. It might have been ways of surviving trauma, emotional pain, or injury. In the past, those ways were probably useful to keep you moving forward. Yet, as we grow up our environment can change quite a lot but our ways of coping and survival do not, and what may have kept us alive in the past may be holding us back now. Often, we find ourselves stuck within patterns, or with other people or lovers who reinforce those patterns.
