Life Coaching Therapists in Calgary, AB

It's time to connect. I have saved you a seat. We are hardwired for connection. Being alone through life's journey is not the foundation of who we are. The early years of my work with individuals began in the Early years of a child's life. Realizing that children cannot change the reality of their lives, I embarked on a journey supporting families, caregivers, and individuals seeking to find their way as they grow in the knowledge of who they are and the great potential that lies before them.

I assist clients who have faced different challenges, specializing in addictions, single parenting, domestic violence, grief, and loss. My therapeutic method is centered around the client, focused on goals, and geared towards solutions. Providing a supportive environment, I empower clients to take charge of their journey towards achieving their objectives. Services are available in Ontario, Alberta and British Columbia. Virtual services offered only at this time.

If you are seeking a legitimate and credentialed professional, with whom issues, fears, distress can be discussed openly and in confidence and a path to resolution is your goal, we should meet. Once issues are clear, together we will make a plan of action that gets the client's life on track. I am honest and direct and focused. I specialize in concerns of individuals or couples.

I am a Registered Psychologist with over 15 years of experience in counselling. I specialize in clinical psychology. I work with individuals: adults and adolescents, and with couples. I can help you to feel better, to increase your self-esteem and to heal from past experiences. If you experienced trauma, abuse, if you have been struggling with depression, anxiety for a long time call me to schedule an appointment. I will help you to experience well-being, to learn and implement new skills and to see your life differently. I offer different approaches to therapy such as: ACT, CBT-Mindfilness, Psychodynamic, Gottman, Emotion-Focused.

Life sometimes presents person with circumstances that are beyond one's capability to cope. Adversity may isolate the person and start to rule one's life. I first work to help you identify the strengths and talents you may have lost sight of. I will compassionately support you in taking steps toward well-being. I will respect your path and your pace as you discover approaches and coping strategies you haven't encountered before. Through trying out new approaches and deciding whether they are a fit for you or not, you'll become more experienced and a wiser life traveller.

I am a physician (MD) and a Canadian Certified Counselor, who is passionate about mind body integration, and supporting people in their wholistic journey of recovery and well-being. I help individuals and families with grief, family dynamics, marital strife, work and life transitions, ADHD, and any mental health a social adoption challenge they may be facing. I have over 10 years experience in working in human resources, with various Canadian organizations, with a deep understanding of disability and duty to accommodate. I work with Canadian born, or newcomers, and am fully fluent in both English and Mandarin.

Have you been to counselling but feel you're not getting anywhere, wanting something new?That is how I felt when I started brainspotting with a therapist. It was so effective, I became a brainspotting practitioner to help individuals find freedom as I have found. One brainspotting session can equal the effectiveness of 6-12 CBT sessions. The modality of brainspotting is a 2nd generation EMDR and can give relief in your mind, and your reactions in daily life. When EMDR first came out, it took awhile to become a mainstream counselling tool. This is similar to Brainspotting. Contact me to start this effective, cutting edge therapy!

You can become empowered to achieve your life and career goals through developing a deeper self-understanding and maximizing your strengths. My aim is to approach counselling with an empathetic and non-judgemental mindset, to seek to understand through actively listening to your unique stories and worldviews, and to work collaboratively with you to help you develop clarity and optimism to achieve your goals. I tailor my counselling approach to meet clients’ unique needs by combining strategies from Narrative, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, and Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, amongst others, into my practice.

I work with adult clients to improve the connection between physical and emotional health. Are you struggling with stress, health issues, or pain? Or perhaps the demands of juggling work, family, and everything else life has to offer is impacting your health and well-being? My goal is to help you gain awareness into the relationship between stress and health, and the tools to improve your quality of life.

Many of my clients come to me seeking support in navigating challenges like anxiety, depression, ADHD, relationship issues or life transitions. I provide a safe, non-judgmental space to explore emotions, gain insight and develop tools to overcome life’s challenges. Through our work together you can expect to develop new coping strategies, build resilience, and foster healthier relationships with yourself and others.

As a Calgary-based therapist-in-training with a 15+ year academic career in women’s, gender, and sexuality studies, I bring a unique perspective that combines expertise in social justice and identities with trauma-informed, client-centred therapy rooted in anti-oppression, sex positivity, and an intersectional feminist praxis. I can help you explore and celebrate your identity and navigate complex relationship dynamics, major life transitions, and the many challenges resulting from systemic oppression. My goal is to help you heal from past traumas, embrace your true self, and live a life that aligns with your values and aspirations.

Our health, growth and happiness come from meaningful and satisfying connections with ourselves and others. Uncovering what is behind our struggles can help us focus our efforts, feel more empowered and recapture our lost potential.

By mid-adolescence, girls are more than twice as likely to be diagnosed with a mood disorder.

Feeling really worried? Having trouble sleeping? Struggling to adjust to change? I can help. I work with adults to manage unpleasant emotions and thoughts; improve sleep; develop decision making and problem solving skills; deal with imposter syndrome; and cope with life transitions (i.e., becoming a parent/caregiver, changing job/career, moving to a new place, retirement, relationship challenges). Together, we can make sense of your current situation and determine how you can improve your wellbeing and overall life satisfaction. I have worked with diverse populations and welcome all adults.

As we move through our human lives, each of us will at times feel our mental and emotional health is compromised, catalyzed perhaps by seismic life events, emerging anxiety, a looming depression, or a stirring from our own depths. When compromised in this way, we may naturally fight hard to maintain the business as usual of our lives. However, sometimes things fall apart anyways and other times, a deeper part of us just doesn't want to hold it all together, but we don't know what else to do - or how to do it. This can be disorienting, depressing, anxiety-provoking, and lonely. We are in unfamiliar territory without a map or compass.

Are you open to new possibilities? In order to understand who you want to be, you have to know who you are first. Gain insight and awareness into your situation, and learn to extract the lessons from your past struggles to develop new ways of coping and managing the challenges in your life. From early on, people learn behaviors to protect themselves for survival — but what worked in the past may no longer be helpful today. When basic human needs aren’t met, the outcome is often depression, anxiety, relationship conflict, or even addiction.

I partner with clients to offer effective individualized mental health care. I treat a number of mental health concerns, and provide a neutral ground for individuals, families, and couples. I offer faith-based Christian counselling and secular counselling.

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.
