In Person Therapists in Southwest Calgary, Calgary, AB

My approach to therapy is rooted in empathy, respect, and collaboration. I believe in creating a safe and non-judgmental space where clients can freely explore their thoughts, emotions, and experiences. Drawing from evidence-based modalities such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), and Mindfulness-Based Interventions, I work alongside clients to develop personalized treatment plans that address their unique needs and goals.

Hi! My name is Stephany Huynh (she/her). I am a first-generation Chinese-Canadian born and understand the cultural divide of the eastern versus western customs. I am passionate about working with youth and families to increase understanding, strengthen relationships, and foster resilience.

Are you experiencing an eating disorder, disordered eating and/or body image concerns? Do you find yourself overwhelmed with anxiety or depression? Or maybe you are struggling with substance abuse, life transitions, family stresses or parenting. If so, I can help. For almost two decades I have been supporting individuals and families overcome these very issues. My approach is to create a safe, compassionate, non-judgmental space where we work together towards healing. I offer both virtual and in-person sessions.

Whether you are suffering from anxiety, depression, post traumatic stress, family concerns, substance use troubles, OCD, intimate relationship issues, grief, problem solving, or trying to navigate the vicissitudes of everyday life, I am here when you are ready to reach out. We will find out what you want to keep, what can be set aside, and what you would like to cultivate. I look forward to meeting all the messy and beautiful parts of you.

It is hard to reach out for support or to even consider reaching out when you are struggling. Perhaps you are experiencing a sense of grief, loss, or burnout leaving you feeling stuck and unsure about what the future holds? Perhaps you are feeling adrift and need someone to talk to as you figure out what to do next? Sometimes we find our past experiences interfere with the present and all of us face challenges that require extra support. Counselling can help you gain a better understanding of yourself, your relationships, and the changes you wish to implement to achieve further growth.

It can be frustrating and confusing when life looks good on the outside but doesn’t feel good on the inside; feeling tired, overwhelmed and disconnected from the things you worked so hard to have. Therapy may seem like one more thing to do in an already busy life, but there is part of you that is curious about whether it could make a difference. As a Ph.D. level Clinical Psychologist, I have spent the past 10 years successfully treating adults with depression, anxiety, OCD, insomnia, perfectionism, life stress, and relationship difficulties.

Hi there! Welcome :) As I am just coming back to work after maternity leave, I have room for new clients with little wait time! I specialize in the very big spectrum of disordered eating/ED and related issues. Perhaps you’re reading this because you’re tired of thinking about food all the time, counting calories, body checking, and not feeling great about yourself? Or perhaps you’re concerned about a loved one or child? These thoughts and feelings can take up a lot of mind space and be emotionally painful and I suspect you know exactly what I mean by that. If you’re looking for a way out, you’re in the right spot here!

My name is Toyin Okikiolu. I am a licensed Social Worker with a master’s degree in social work and am authorized to perform psychosocial intervention. My background in Social Work within the community and hospital settings has given me a unique perspective on individuals' resiliency, courage, and strength in adversity. I know that life can sometimes be challenging, lonely, and stressful and that you need someone who truly listens and understands during these moments. As a counselor, I provide an empathetic ear and collaborative support when you need it most.

Let's try something new! I'm Kathryn and by using baking as a form of expressive art I hope to help female identifying individuals 13+ who are going through extensive life transitions such as puberty, the hard teen years, maternity leave, or retirement manage the anxiety, fear, depression, and loneliness that comes along with these changes. If you've ever noticed you have great conversations with others while walking, driving, or doing activities, my goal is to create safety for you while getting busy with our hands. We will ground ourselves in the work of creating delicious baked goods while exploring what you need.

Hi there! I’m Jess. Your average Maritimer, turned Winnipegger, turned Calgarian. I’m passionate about supporting young adults figure out who they are and who they want to be post-highschool. Highschool can be rough as it is, but then being thrust into the ‘real-world’ can be even more challenging as you now have a whole new way of life (and freedom) to figure out. My goal is to help you sort through all the thoughts, and emotions that come with life transitions, provide you a comfy space to cry, yell, celebrate, and to find your confidence.

Life is hard! We may be faced with challenges from the time we are young, and sometimes the struggles come later in life. Sometimes we lose ourselves along the way. The good news is that things can change and you are already stronger and wiser than you realize! I believe in the power of human resiliency and people’s capacity for personal growth. You are the expert on your own life, and whether you are working to heal from a past trauma, trying to improve your relationship skills, overcome struggles with anxiety or depression, increase your sense of self-worth, dealing with a loss, or just working to find yourself again. I can help!

I have learned that I have a particular interest in treating loss and grief-related concerns, sexuality and gender exploration, addiction, and life transitions, but I welcome clients with a wide range of concerns.

Take a deep breath, pour a cup of tea, keep it real. I am here to help you slow down, connect with yourself, and trust your intuitive wisdom. I work from a holistic perspective and I believe that relationality is essential to our well-being. That's why I show up to our time together just as you show up — fully human. I invite genuine connection, creativity, and the full range of emotion within our therapeutic relationship. This means your humour, tears, and dance moves are always welcome. My focus in session is to be present, curious, and courageous with you as we build relationship, embody emotions, and work with your stories.

Does life feel overwhelming these days? Do you find yourself burnt out, exhausted, weighed down by past traumas, relationship challenges, or identity struggles? Are you tired of being weighed down by sleepless nights, anxious moments, and daily tasks that seem insurmountable? Navigating life’s complexities can be daunting - often leaving us confused and uncertain where to turn. Rather than feeling powerless and alone, I want you to feel confident to navigate life’s challenges. With warmth and expertise, I provide an inclusive and caring space where you can unpack your burdens and embark on a journey of growth and healing.

Ever wondered how therapy could potentially benefit you individually? How it could potentially benefit your child and or teen? How it could potentially benefit your family as a whole? If you have questions like these, I would welcome you to contact me for a free 15 minute consultation. So, we can discuss your questions, and I can explain what I can offer you. My ideal clients are seeking a therapist who is empathic, respectful, genuine, honest, collaborative, and nonjudgmental. My goal is to help you feel heard and understood, as we work together to help you with achieving your therapy goals.

I believe it is important to be heard and respected, especially when one is actively making changes in their life. I have over 30 years experience working in the mental heath sector in Calgary, with the past 17 years spent at Alberta Health Services as a Mental Health Clinician working with adults. I provide a holistic, client-centered approach, and use a variety of therapeutic modalities. I am particularly interested in helping people recover from trauma, grief and loss, using Accelerated Resolution Therapy (ART). It is a non-invasive, evidence-based psychotherapy providing relief from distressing or traumatic images or memories.

With a passion for counselling and a belief in everyone's ability to shape their own narratives, I nurture a space of trust and support. My journey to my own best life has fueled my commitment to guiding others towards their truths and desires. I apply evidence-based research to a person's inner wisdom to create a roadmap to success.
