Life Coaching Therapists in T3C

Navigating any sudden change in your life can heighten your emotions. Are you experiencing higher normal levels of.......frustration, stress, sadness, fear and feelings of loss & uncertainty. Have you had relationship changes, life changes or lost dreams? Grief is the pain that accompanies loss. Because it is a reflection of what we love, it can feel all-encompassing. Grief is not limited to the people we love who have died. We grieve when we have lost, something or things that we value. Loss entails that a part of you, a piece of your life, has died. Grieving the life you imagined for yourself, your future, even your present.

I have been a registered psychologist for 12 years. Finding a psychologist who is a good fit- someone who feels comfortable, safe and provides a relationship that feels naturally congruent, is the most important part of this highly personal journey. I have extensive experience and specialized training in working with couples and individuals and have various trainings and experience to lend to the below noted areas of specialization.

In our work together, you can expect to find an open, secure, safe place to explore your life experiences. I believe human connection is what fuels many of us and I endeavor to create therapeutic relationships where I empower clients to find greater authentic connection in their lives. Our sessions are intentional, you’ll be given the space to create goals for outside therapy and live your most authentic life.

In my practice, I support clients who are experiencing anxiety, depression, stress, grief, ADHD, OCD, burnout, and trauma. I also offer assessment and diagnostic services. Life can be hard sometimes, and my clients often tell me that they have so much going on in their lives that they're struggling to manage their emotions. Many of my clients identify themselves as being helpers, caregivers, and empaths and are having a hard time finding balance in their lives. If you're tired of managing alone and want to find some peace or clarity in your life, or simply want to feel better emotionally, you've come to the right place.

Would you like to change your life? Are you unsure what that means, or afraid of what it entails? Change can be scary, but you don’t have to do it alone. People describe me as someone who is warm, authentic, and accepting. My desire for you is that you don’t just manage symptoms, but you are able to get to the root of issues, find healing there, and experience deep, transformational, and lasting change – change that is not based on willpower but change that is felt, experienced, and real. In working with me, you may feel relief, find peace, begin to hope again, and start to live and enjoy life in a way you didn’t think was possible.

Accepting New Clients! Member of AASECT (American Association of Sexuality Educators, Counselors and Therapists). I have 18 yrs of experience providing sexuality and relationship counselling. These topics are rarely discussed openly or in detail. Yet, they are such primary and important parts of being human. While relational issues don't constitute your whole life, they can certainly colour your entire life. I use a multidisciplinary, trauma-informed approach to help clients reach their goals. This can involve your relationships with others or your relationship with yourself. Contact me today for info or to book an appointment.

Listening to clients and providing a respectful environment where it is safe to explore life's challenges is the first step. Each of us has strengths. I respect the expertise you have in your own life, encourage you to look at things differently and guide you to discover your own inner wisdom to help you create solutions that work for you. My clients include individuals, couples and families struggling with relationship breakdown, separation/divorce, parent-child problems, employment issues, anxiety, depression or trauma. I have specialized training in mediation, parenting coordination, parenting assessments and EMDR for working with trauma.

We have the ability to find our best answers. Sometimes those answers have been lost amongst all the other pieces of our lives and it can be a challenge to discover them. As your therapist and companion I support you as you identify and choose which pieces serve you and which get left behind. With attention, I get to know you, your values and beliefs, and this allows us to develop the approach that is tailored to you, your life, your future.

Are you ready to make lasting change within your life? I believe that everyone is deserving of and able to live the best possible life that they can imagine. If you are searching for greater happiness and control within your life, if you are looking to take steps to live your best possible life, please start a conversation with me. I am committed to working with you creatively and compassionately, to understand you, your concerns, and your goals. I can help you to achieve your most vivid dreams and goals for yourself.

Are you struggling with career decisions, self-esteem, or overall anxiety? If so, you're in the right place! I specialize in working with young women ages 18 - 35 struggling with that last piece in life to feel whole. Being a young woman can present many challenges and pressures and it can be hard to know what next step to take in life.

Have you been struggling to find counselling support? Or perhaps you don't know where to start. I understand just how challenging and overwhelming it can be to find a therapist that is a good fit. I firmly believe it is an integral part of the counselling process. I work predominantly with individuals (adults and seniors) in areas such as anxiety, depression, grief and loss, trauma, self-esteem, body image, communication and relationship concerns, life transitions, retirement, loneliness, and empty nesting.

Experienced Ph.D. level registered psychologist, practicing in Calgary since 1987. I enjoy helping motivated individuals in therapy. I combine clinical training with personal authenticity and sensitivity to diversity and socialization influences on how we handle what we are facing. Effective therapy is collaborative and empowering, with therapist and clients working together to make positive changes towards the clients' goals. This may involve learning to self-soothe, anti-depressant behaviours, and homework between sessions. Good therapy builds on strengths.

I am here to help you build your awareness to expand your choices for wellness. I am not a healer, I am a helper for you to find your own way to self-healing. With compassionate curiosity, we can work together on depression, anxiety, anger issues, eating disorders, relationship problems, grief and loss, cultural/identity issues, gender and sexuality issues, parent-child conflict, intimacy and attachment issues, intergenerational trauma, abuse, bullying, behavior problems, soul wounds and health issues.

I believe in personalizing and customizing treatments plans to meet the needs of the individual client, rather than trying to fit all clients into one or two psychotherapy modes. I work in partnership with clients to assist them in prioritizing and exploring their issues, in a safe, positive, environment. Treatment plans are flexible, evolving with the needs of the individual person. Appointment times and dates are also very flexible, with evening appointments available as needed.
