Anxiety and mood issues can manifest in many forms, including low energy, irritability, anger, and more.

How is your teen doing with not only school and peer pressure, but also the added stress of COVID-19 and isolation? Working with adolescents is a special area of interest of mine and I can help with issues such as anxiety, depression, bullying, suicidal ideation, and self-harm.

New to therapy? Nothing to worry about! Sometimes it's hard making sense and to talk about our feelings, experiences and patterns of behaviours. Empathetic by nature, I'm a progressive therapist, who uses a strength-based approach to help you and/or your partner achieve emotional balance and optimal mental health. My job is to ultimately help you feel comfort, acceptance, and to listen without judgement. Some days we'll laugh and realize those light 'ah ha!' moments while other days we will work hard to uncover those deeply personal truths. If you'd like to know more visit me at: alphacounselling.ca

Thank you for considering my profile as you take steps towards your healing and growth. Moving through survival and into daily life can be filled with uncertainty and difficulty. Challenging life experiences may leave you feeling stuck, and disconnected from yourself and others, and may shift the foundation of deeply held values and beliefs. I am passionate about supporting adults who are seeking support related to life transitions, relationship concerns, anxiety, stress, trauma and trauma-related symptoms, depression, sexual violence/abuse, and existential crisis. I also offer mental health, personality, and vocational assessments.

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.

In a society bombarded by messaging that constantly encourages the pursuit of happiness through self-actualization, it’s no wonder people find themselves stuck in the cycle of pursuing self-growth and happiness and are often left feeling disappointed, anxious, and disheartened. Our brain is wired for survival, and sometimes, we need to remind ourselves that we don’t just want to survive, we want to LIVE.
