Therapists in Edmonton, AB

Sometimes we hit a place in our life journey where we realize we aren't where we want to be. In these moments, sitting down with someone to sort through where we actually want to be, and then working through the issues getting in the way of us reaching these goals can allow us to tranform our lives. Whether the issues are within your relationship, work, family, or things that happened in your past I would be honored to work with you to live your best life.

I am a registered psychologist specializing in Depression, Anxiety, ADHD, Bipolar Disorder, and PTSD. I previously conducted research at the University of Alberta, designing a treatment center intended to treat children of sexual abuse. I completed my Master's degree in counselling psychology at City University in Edmonton, Alberta. Prior to that I completed two Bachelor degrees in Psychology and Organizational Studies with a specialization in human resources. I aim to provide my clients with as much time and comfort as they need until they feel safe and secure.

Many people struggle with confidence and are unable to fulfill their goals for relationships, work, and personal fulfillment. Understanding how your core values and beliefs impact aspects of your life such as work, relationships, and overall fulfillment can give you the power to overcome these struggles. Through learning to accept and love yourself fully you can move past shame that is likely impacting how you feel and behave. Through awareness of your power to change the meaning you give to events within your childhood, you can become free from limiting beliefs.

I am a trauma-informed therapist who focuses on helping clients who experience anxiety, depression, and complex trauma (cPTSD). I understand the daily challenges and how these symptoms can feel like they are holding you back. I hope to provide you with a comfortable and safe place where we can deepen your understanding of yourself while letting go of the judgments and shame that society has instilled in us. We can even laugh and ugly-cry during this process.

Have you recently been struggling and feel like you could use some extra support? Do you have a hard time coping with how you are feeling? Are you feeling alone or struggling in the relationships in your life? Are you struggling with trauma you have experienced? Are you having a hard time sleeping? If you answered yes to any of these questions it may be time to seek out counselling in a safe and caring environment. Together we can create a plan to build on your strengths, and gain new resources and tools to assist you with your struggles. It is my desire to help you increase your hope, joy, and meaning in your life.

Society used to look at mental health issues as something to be ashamed of, but we don't have to any more. Mental health, like physical health, is something that absolutely everyone must work at to feel good. It's rewarding work, but it isn't always easy. Traumatic events or even just daily struggles can sometimes lead to addictions, poor relationships with others, or strong feelings of disconnection and worthlessness. The resources we need to stay balanced, to grow, and to feel whole are within each of us, but sometimes we have trouble finding them on our own.

Facing sexual difficulties? Struggling with communication in your relationship, low desire, or genital pain? Unsure about discussing kinks/fetishes or opening up your relationship? Your experience may not mirror movies - body not cooperating, mind wandering, unable to enjoy yourself. You are not alone, and it's not about love or compatibility. I'm here to help. Empowering your sexuality and advocating for your sexual health and intimacy is what I strive for most! I hope to provide you with an opportunity to reclaim your sexuality in a safe, supportive, non-judgmental atmosphere where you're validated, empathized with and understood.

**Accepting new clients** Why do people come to therapy? Oftentimes people are facing a struggle that doesn’t seem manageable on their own. Others may feel stuck, unheard, overwhelmed, or just need an unbiased and empathetic ear. Whatever the reason for coming to therapy may be, establishing trust is my first priority.

Welcome, I am Keltie! I am trauma informed therapist who is passionate about working collaboratively with individuals seeking new and authentic ways to heal and thrive. You can expect humour, warmth, and transparency from me, as well as tailored sessions around your goals, needs, and comfort. I work holistically, employing intersectional feminist and anti-oppressive values to explore new perspectives to address our daily challenges. Sessions with me can include: processing difficult or challenging life experiences, exploring identity, identify values, and setting or define boundaries with both self and others.

Our team members are all trained in various specialties and treatment approaches, creating the opportunity for us to support individuals from all walks of life facing diverse issues. Whether you are seeking child, family, individual or couples therapy to address anything from anxiety to processing a traumatic event, one of our team members will be happy to help.

Life can be complicated. Navigating neurodiversity, mental health, relational distress, psycho-legal issues, and other challenges can add to the stress. Using an integrated, respectful, culturally sensitive, and holistic model of mental health care, Dr. Stolte is able to draw from a wide background of experience and training to support your situation that requires psychological assessment or counselling support.

I work mainly with challenges faced by women and children related to immigration and reintegration in another country, addiction, mental health, marginalization and relationships. My number one goal is to meet people where they are at and walk along with them on their journey towards a more rewarding and fulfilling one, where they can resolve or gain a different perspective on their situation, and is and learn new skills to help them through life. Clients strengths are highlighted and they are motivated to develop autonomy and confidence in their ability to make important decisions that affect their wellbeing.

Welcome! If you're seeking a compassionate, non-judgmental and thoughtful therapist, I'm here for you. With over 10 years experience, I've worked in hospitals, community mental health with Alberta Health Services, and private practice. Your journey towards well-being begins here. Let's navigate it together. My approach revolves around building strong working relationships with my clients. I am dedicated to creating a safe and nurturing environment where individuals feel empowered to express themselves without the fear of judgment or rejection.

I use a developmental-attachment lens to understand a person of any age in the context of their self development and the important people in their life. Whether it's a child, youth or adult, I know that we all struggle between the expectations of others and connecting into our own desire for balance within our self-- emotionally, mentally, physically and spiritually. Connecting back into our self is the first step in being able to express our feelings and needs more clearly and cultivating positive relationships with those we love.

Is low self-esteem hindering your life? Is it hard for you to allow yourself to rest and relax? Do you find it hard to know what to do with strong emotions when they start to come up? Do you wish you could feel more connected to and confident in your body? All of these struggles are connected to the way we view and relate to our sense of self. These are common experiences that many, including myself, have experienced, but it does not need to stay that way.

As someone who has experienced the rich, and at times surprising, benefits of therapy in my own life, it is my privilege to walk with others as they seek growth, healing, and positive change. While I work with individuals with various concerns, I have a particular passion for opening space to process significant, possibly traumatic, life experiences that impact one's sense of self, relationships, and general well-being.

Hi, I’m Allison and I’m glad you are here. Life can throw a lot of curveballs our way. Some days it can feel as though we are drowning in life stressors and caught in worrying spirals or experiencing task paralysis. Other days may feel doable but then a trauma trigger hits us, and we get stopped in our tracks. A counselling relationship can help us navigate through overwhelming and difficult life circumstances. Reaching out for help is hard but with a little bit of discomfort comes change and growth!

There are often obstacles in life, and I strive to help people find their way through them, by offering a caring, safe, and empathetic environment for them to share their feelings, explore solutions, develop their strength, and create change.

Depression, anxiety, emotional challenges, relationship concerns, anger and addictions, to name a few, can be hard on our health. One can often feel alone, feel that no one understands, or fear being judged. I will support you by creating a safe space. Let us talk. My goal is to help you identify potential causes and find healthy ways to resolve issues, and guide you through those vulnerable moments.

Accepting New Patients - Navigating life's unexpected challenges and stress can lead to feelings of overwhelm, being lost, and feeling alone. Often when people experience this discomfort they use coping strategies that can lead to negative outcomes, such as low self-esteem, depression, anxiety, and using substances. If you are needing help to get back to yourself and learn new healthy coping strategies, wanting to explore addictions treatment or have untreated trauma, we will work together to develop a treatment plan that suits your needs and helps to achieve your goals.

As a Registered Psychologist, I am committed to helping others live a life they deeply value, in spite of what suffering inevitably arises. I offer a respectful, confidential space where you will be supported in honest, non-judgmental self-exploration. Together, we can work on approaching your difficult thoughts, feelings, and experiences in new ways: with compassion, understanding, and the courage to be vulnerable. My goal is to help you build behavioural flexibility, so that you are increasingly able to act in ways that align with your values, rather than rigidly re-cycling old patterns of behaviour.

My ideal client (Adult, Single, Relationships) is totally focused on understanding themselves as a wholly formed authentic person. You may be ready to heal from your past traumas and to evolve into the person you were always meant to be. I assist you to understand your boundaries and learn how to practice them in relationships. You want to understand the Drama Triangles and your own role in in it. I call this learning how to practice authenticity, which is about becoming the most authentic version of yourself. I can help you with that.

I am the owner of Equinox Therapeutic. I most enjoy providing services to individuals who feel, in some way, "stuck" but feel that somehow, someway, life MUST have something better in store for them! Whether it's because of traumatic experiences that you still carry the weight of, or the sense that your current coping mechanisms are no longer functional for you, I can help you untangle the web of your past or present...allowing you ultimately to emerge with a true understanding of who you are, and a sense of empowerment and potential to be who you want to be. 2SLGBTQ+ affirming, and all expressions of queerness are welcome!
