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!

There are times when we feel like we are looking for something. Something is missing in ourselves; in our lives. We feel alone in our problems. We feel like we're not enough. We want to show who we really are but we're afraid. Finding a way through starts with being curious about ourselves; about others; about life. We can feel fully present in our lives when we tune in to our own attachment needs and those of the people we love. Two Psychologists, Brea Malacad and Paul Berg, have created this new private practice in Edmonton emphasizing this need for connection and attachment.

Lunch hour, weekday afternoon/ evenings, Saturdays & complimentary consults. Counseling is time we get to bring attention to what you’re feeling and, given what you’ve experienced already, notice what you're ready to connect with now. My practice is rooted in nurturing secure connection with self and others. Perpetually intrigued at how things can shift naturally and feel surprisingly easier as the wisdom in our body/ nervous system is effectively included in healing conversation, I value working collaboratively to support feelings of security, purpose & fulfillment, alongside a titrated, intentional release of anxiety/ fear.

In life, we all need space to talk about the things heaviest on our hearts. Maybe you have been struggling with relationships, feeling anxious or generally feeling low about life. Perhaps you have been through difficult experiences within a religious or organizational setting, leaving you feeling disillusioned and confused. Or maybe you live with chronic pain or chronic illness which feels like it saps all ability to engage in the life you want or have hope for the future. Whatever you are going through, it would be my privilege to meet you there.

Do you find yourself feeling confused or frustrated about your behaviors in relationships? Do you keep making the same mistakes or feel overly dependent on your partner for reassurance and attention? Do you notice that you struggle to trust your partner fully, or feel anxious and jealous when you're apart? Maybe you get really focused on your partner and feel panicked or afraid if there’s any distance or boundaries between you. Have you been told you come across as needy or clingy, and does this make it hard for you to keep close relationships? Does any of this sound familiar to you?

“We are relational beings" and we discover ourselves in our relationship to others. When these relationships don’t feel “secure”, we may feel alone or in pain, causing personal struggles to be more difficult. My experience in counselling those who face marital, family, and parenting struggles, offers ways to overcome the barriers that get in the way of reaching out to those you love. I offer my authenticity and a supportive place to reflect, and discover new ways of viewing yourself to create positive change.
