Life Coaching Therapists in Calgary, AB

Grief is a natural and unique experience. Hello! I am a holistic grief specialist. I am not your typical talk counsellor. I help adult Albertan’s connect to their mind, body, spirit and life again after a death, loss or life change. Grief is unique in how each person experiences it. Grief can be chaotic, overwhelming, isolating and sometimes leaving you feeling you have no control of your mind, body and life. Having both personal and professional experience with death, loss and unpredictable changes, allows me to be thoughtful about the importance of creating a safe space to share your raw emotions, thoughts and story of loss.

I’m so happy you’re here! :) Let’s get to know each other. I love contrast, and feel best when I can embrace all of the pieces that make me who I am. Some of my favourite things: glitter and dirt, bare feet and high heels, nature and pizza, poetry and pushups, intentional practice and fun - because I believe we’re here to experience life, and to learn to feel it all out.

Executive coaching, consulting and counselling for leaders and high net worth individuals and families. My education includes theory and practice in most major approaches in Psychology including Psychodynamic, Cognitive-Behavioural and Humanistic-Existential in combination with hands-on management experience. I have worked extensively in the arts and media on performance, creativity and anxiety. With four degrees in Psychology including a Ph.D. in Clinical Psychology and a Certificate in Intercultural Studies, formal education has been invaluable. My best teachers however are my clients and life experience.

Supporting couples, individuals and families in times of struggles is my passion. I am experienced in working with individuals of all ages who have experienced childhood traumas (sexual/physical/emotional abuse), and who struggle with a variety of mental health issues such as Tourettes, ADHD, sexual struggles, Autism Spectrum Disorders, Depression, Anxiety Disorder, OCD and Distorted Eating. I have over a decade of experience working with families in crisis, parent/teen conflict, relationship/marriage difficulties, custody/access conflict, addictions, survivors of sexual/physical abuse, depression, and anger management issues.

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.

Is life overwhelming? Do your dreams seem beyond reach? There is hope! If you are struggling with grief, anxiety, depression, spirituality, relationships, postpartum, retirement, and life transitions, I can help. As a Registered Psychologist, I utilize Mindfulness, Cognitive Behaviour Therapy, and Companioning approaches to help you overcome your current difficulties so that you may experience more joy and fulfillment in your days. Don't let yourself be defined by grief, loneliness, pain, depression, or anxiety. Let me help you to discover that life can be manageable again.

You are the expert on your life and know yourself better than anyone else. This makes you the best judge of what is right or wrong, or good or bad, for you. My role is to help reach a point where you no longer need my assistance and to address the problems that brought you to therapy. I'm not here to judge your actions but to assist in creating clarity or a change in perspective. During our time together, I aim to equip you with skills, tools, or new perspectives that you can apply to your current situation or adapt to future challenges.

Are you stuck despite having a hunch about why you may feel, think, or act the way you do? What if I told you that it is possible to get to the core of your current difficulties and it is easier than you think? Anxiety, self-doubt, self-criticism, shame, procrastination, emotional avoidance, etc. may not be the real issue but rather a symptom of the issue. In my experience, these emotional states or stress-driven behaviours are simply masking what the real concern is. Focusing on that alone is giving you an incomplete picture of what is really going, which is why you haven’t been able to take steps forward yet.

Life is full of struggles: spiritual fear and concerns, fear of being labeled, depression, anxiety, family breakdowns, political confusion, or struggling to figure out day to day life. People want to live whole and happy lives. Their goals are to find tools which will help them to cope and internal strength to face their past and future.

Are you a high achiever, constantly striving for perfection? Do you often find yourself putting others' needs before your own, feeling overwhelmed by the pressure to please everyone? Are you riddled with anxiety, constantly worrying and feeling like you're never doing enough? Or perhaps you struggle with OCD and are bombarded with intrusive thoughts and compulsive behaviours that disrupt your daily life? Maybe you've experienced trauma that continues to affect you, leaving you feeling stuck in a loop and unable to move forward. If any of this resonates with you, know that you're not alone, and there is hope for healing and growth.

Depressed? Anxious? Life struggles? Past pained experiences returning and preventing a more desired and enjoyable life? I approach counseling in a concise and determined manner to help reposition yourself from the conditions causing distress. I use Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) and other therapies to understand and accept the thoughts, feelings and behaviours you are using to cope with your overwhelming sad, fearful, angered moments. I am confident my therapeutic techniques and your efforts to change will result in a more enjoyable life! Book now for an immediate session like no other to begin your journey to a better you!

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.

I am committed to helping my clients develop the confidence, self-compassion and effective life-management skills that are necessary for healthy relationships with both themselves and others. Using a compassionate, collaborative and mindful approach, I help clients get clear on what is at the root of their stress or unhealthy behaviours, and support them in overcoming the internal barriers getting in their way of being their truest selves. Using techniques that focus on accessing my clients' inner resources, strengths, and innate ability to heal, I help them create exactly the life they want.

I offer decades of relevant experience and expertise to clients who are in the midst of a life changing transition and/or existential dilemma. My approach entails creating a safe, open, engaging relational space and then acting as a catalytic companion by using strategic questions to probe and coax the client to the discoveries and adaptations that will make a difference for them. Once the client's stress states, emotional concerns and confused thinking have been calmed and clarified, my aim is to identify and build upon their signature strengths so that they can fully realize their potentials and capacities.

Life is a struggle, and it is possible to use that struggle to plant and smell some roses along the way. If you want to empower yourself to make the struggles and challenges in your life a little easier to bear; if you want to understand yourself; if you want to make better connections with the people around you; if you want to be able to set goals for yourself and set yourself up for success to attain those goals; if you want to create a life of meaning; I can help.

I offer high quality counselling services to individuals, couples and mature adolescents. I use an integrative approach including EMDR and CBT to treat trauma, depression, anxiety and relationship problems. I work in collaboration with you to help you reach your personal development goals. I offer you a safe and non-judgmental space to help you address your mental health issues. It is time to stop suffering in silence. Allow me to be part of your journey to help you overcome your personal obstacles and achieve a fulfilling life. Your recovery is my focus. This is where my passion lies.

Life tends to be full of ups and downs, with no shortage of uncertainties and challenges.
