I am a Registered Psychologist with the College of Alberta Psychologists. I specialize in working with children, adolescents and young adults. My experience and training is diverse. I have worked with adolescents in an Alberta Health Services collaborative inpatient unit. As a former guidance counsellor I have provided counselling to at risk teens. In private practice, I have conducted psycho-educational assessments for learning disorders, giftedness, ADHD, anxiety, and depression. I provide strategies for clients with ADHD and more. In therapy, I am respectful, open-minded and embrace Client Centered paradigms.

Is your child struggling with excessive worry and unwanted, intrusive thoughts? Are they anxious about attending school, hanging out with friends, or not being 'good enough'? I can help. Using a cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT) approach along with exposure and response prevention (ERP), I have experience working with children and their families to alleviate symptoms of Anxiety and Obsessive Compulsive Disorder (OCD). I would love to meet with you to discuss how I might be able to help along you and your child's journey in mental and behavioural wellness.

Relationships in our lives present us with an infinite number of experiences that bring successes, challenges and everything in between. The stories that we live everyday contain relationships that form the foundation of our mental and physical well-being. There are times when we want the current stories in our life to continue and at other times we hope and need for something to change so that we can live the life we desire as an individual and in relation to others. Regardless of the challenges you are experiencing there is a way to find a path forward towards a desired story that will bring fulfillment and joy in your life.

Hi, I'm Keely. I complete assessments for students who are between the ages of 5 and 22. Most people think comprehensive assessments produce lengthy reports filled with complex language and few practical recommendations. I aim to write family-friendly reports with everyday strategies to support students across multiple environments. The families I work with appreciate my communication throughout the assessment process and my strength-based approach.

Accepting virtual clients only at this time. Life can be challenging and so can finding the right therapist; it takes courage to embark on your treatment journey. With over 25 years of experience in the mental health and addictions field, I use an eclectic, and collaborative approach to therapy utilizing a trauma-informed and person-centered approach. Drawing from a variety of tools, techniques, and approaches allows me to meet you where you are at. Regardless of the approach we use, I believe that the therapeutic relationship is imperative to create a supportive and non-judgmental space.

I have a passion working with individuals, couples and families with children of all ages and stages. Every person has a need to feel heard, seen, and capable. Therapy can be a benefit when you feel previous coping methods may have become exhausted or no longer work the way they did. This is when a fresh lens can lead to a new perspective and inspired action. Mental health matters, and I invite you to make it a priority in your life and the lives of your loved ones.

For me, well-being comes from the knowledge that no matter what life throws at you, you have the tools you need to courageously and compassionately face it. It comes from knowing that you have the strength and ability to cope with any uncertainty. And, we can face and get through anything when we know how to support ourselves. Many of us were not taught the skills or given the tools we need to get through life’s challenges. Nor were we taught how to treat ourselves in a loving, supportive way. We can change this.

The human experience is both wearisome and wondrous. My role is to provide compassion, therapeutic knowledge, keenly observe strengths, and barriers to help you navigate the wearisome so that you can fully enjoy the wondrous. Working with clients, helping them to develop self-compassion, acquire flexibility in their approach to life, and learn robust coping skills is a deeply satisfying part of my work. I’ve observed that couples are wanting more from their relationships, yet we aren’t taught skills which allow us to relate well. I guide couples as they acquire tools which foster better communication and relationship skills.

If you are ready to delve deeper into your healing and your authenticity to explore parts of you that you may have neglected or buried due to past difficulties or past traumas, then you have come to the right place. I offer a safe place where you can explore and heal these aspects of you.

I'm dedicated to supporting you in the challenges and changes of midlife and beyond. Midlife can feel like a kind of reckoning. You contend with lost or changed relationships, difficult events, illnesses and changes in your body and mind. This season can spur a desire to return to the essence of things and root down into what matters, and to reflect on how you were raised and how it impacts you now. You may experience burnout, depression, anxiety or chronic pain. As a caregiver, you may tend to put others’ needs before your own, which can be rewarding but comes at a cost.
