Therapists in Calgary, AB

Are you feeling overwhelmed by life's challenges? Whether you're struggling with stress, anxiety, career changes and concerns in the AI era, loss, women's issues, mental health, relationships, life transitions, hoarding, special needs, I can help. Financial worries, family conflicts, and self-esteem struggles can be daunting, and cross-cultural issues or recovering from trauma can make life even more challenging. As a counsellor, I'll work with you to find clarity, build confidence, and create meaningful change. You don't have to face these challenges alone. Together, we'll navigate your path to a more peaceful and satisfying life.

I am a certified psychotherapist and counsellor (CCC) and I specialize in individual and couples counselling. I also offer supervision to therapists. I deeply enjoy working with adults and teens and I have more than 12 years experience in the field. I specialize in crisis interventions, couples counselling, family wellness, teens in crisis, and parenting in multicultural organizations. I use inner child work - a transformative approach which helps one identify root causes and gain deep understanding and compassion for oneself. I am deeply touched to have witnessed profound shifts in people's lives and in their relationships.

INSIGHT & PRACTICE FOR CHANGE: I believe we all have the inherent ability to live a meaningful, satisfying, and connected life. At some point most people will become aware or begin to feel that they are somehow "off course", that "something needs to change" or that something new is desired. This realization is an opportunity to "adjust course", take stock, and intentionally re-align our lives. Sometimes small shifts can make incredible differences; other times we are called to dig deep. Whether you want to make personal, professional or relationship shifts, by reaching out to me you can trust that the change process has already started.

With over eight years of experience, I am committed to offering you the highest level of care, customizing our work together to help you achieve your unique personal goals. I believe in a client-centred approach that prioritizes your unique needs and empowers you to take control of your life and mental health. As your therapist, I will create a safe and supportive space where you can explore, grow, glow and heal. In our sessions, I will focus on amplifying your strengths, motivating positive change, and helping you overcome negative thought processes that may be holding you back.

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.

Courageous conversations. Creative connections. Welcome! I am a Registered Psychologist in Calgary, Alberta providing counselling services and workshops to creatives, seekers, dreamers, deeply sensitive thinkers, and feelers experiencing life transitions, grief, interpersonal challenges, trauma, low self-esteem, identity crisis, stress, anxiety, or burnout. If you are creative, reflective, and looking for something to shift, I may be able to help.

Welcome! It takes courage to begin the journey towards wellness and wholeness. Whether you’re feeling exhausted, confused, sad, numb, anxious, stuck, or just ready to take the next big step, I’d be honoured to walk beside you as you heal and grow. Traumatic or painful life events like violence, abuse, losses, or accidents may have suddenly or drastically thrown you off of your life trajectory. Or, maybe they happened a long time ago yet resurface, affecting habits, decisions, and relationships today. Therapy can help you to feel empowered and in control of your life by restoring stability, safety, and trust.

Are you overwhelmed by your situation? Sometimes dealing with the present moment feels heavy when our past adds to the difficulties. Our thoughts, emotions, and even body sensations can weigh us down and make us feel hopeless. You may have tried different strategies to make things better, and maybe they haven’t worked well. We know you are doing the best you can. Sometimes people need a bit of professional guidance. We believe that once trauma and limiting beliefs are cleared from the past, it’s easier to deal with the present. When you can connect to that bright genuine strong part of yourself, it is easier for you to handle life.

My practice centres on supporting healthy relationships including those we have with ourselves, which is foundational in influencing the relationships we have with others, including with our friends, our partners, our children, and our families. Many of us spend time, energy, and money decluttering our homes and workspaces. I believe our hearts, minds, and emotions deserve to be decluttered too. You may be holding on to emotions and habits that no longer serve a helpful role in our lives, but that can change. If you're reading this profile, you're ready for change. That's a good thing, and I can help you let go of the clutter.

Do you consider yourself creative, multidimensional, empathic, intuitive, introverted, deep-thinking, or highly sensitive (HSP)? Are you prone to low self-esteem, emotional overwhelm or depression? Do you sense that “younger” unhealed aspects inside you might be sabotaging your health, your livelihood, your relationships, or your willingness to ask for support? ​

I recognize that everyone's path and journey is multi layered and multi-dimensional, based on one's ethnicity, culture, religion, gender, sexual orientation, generation, etc. and what exists at that point of intersection is unique. I would love to join you on your own unique journey and help you gain insight on what brings you here. I enjoy working with individuals including young adults and seniors, couples, families – nuclear, joint and extended families. My areas of expertise include depression, anxiety, relationship concerns, stress, grief and loss, self-esteem, racial and sexual minorities and immigrant populations.

It's not always easy to navigate life's challenges alone. Whether you're feeling overwhelmed by difficult emotions, wanting to make a change and don’t know where to start, or struggling to cope with unexpected events, reaching out for help can be a powerful act of self-care and courage. That's where I come in. I work through a holistic lens combined with scientific, evidence-based interventions, to help you reach your unique goals. I believe that each person possesses their own strengths and gifts, but sometimes we are blinded by past experiences or current challenges.

I work with clients experiencing challenges in relationships, increased stress, and adjusting to change. Clients seeking to improve relationships, manage stress more effectively and adapt to change or loss in their lives will find a good fit with the services I provide. I also work with clients in areas such as improving confidence and self worth and decision making.

We all deserve to experience life to the fullest and to enjoy rewarding relationships and happiness. Sometimes, our past or current experiences interfere with this and it can be very helpful to speak with a professional to help you overcome obstacles and enhance your well-being. My work with you will be one of empowerment, helping you to master your own individual healing and personal development. I will support you in healing your past, coping with the present, and envisioning a desirable and rewarding future in all aspects of your life.

I am a Registered Psychologist providing Counselling Psychotherapy for persons who experience distress caused by anxiety, phobias, depression, stress, difficulties in relationships, grief, loss and bereavement, childhood emotional traumas. I also address ambiguous losses and transitions determined by life adjustment including country relocation, changes in marital status and other developmental and life changing events and transformations, welcoming clients from all backgrounds. My approach is oriented toward finding meaning and healing personal distress caused by past and present emotional challenges.

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.

Trauma, grief, and the complexities of relationships can cast shadows that seem overwhelming, giving rise to hopelessness and despair for some. No matter where you are in your grief or your relationship journey, you don't have to walk alone, I am here to guide and support you.
