Through all my personal and professional experience it seems that the foundation for much of our suffering and of our healing is in the context of our relationships with each other. I have found that exploring and unpacking our relationship experience and expectations provides new pathways for healing. I love seeing people's excitement as they become newly aware of the thoughts and feelings of their family, their community, and even their own selves. May we find more hope together. Together may we find your pathways home.

If you are struggling with feelings of low self-worth, pervasive sadness, or chronic stress, and have difficulty managing your emotions or maintaining healthy relationships there is a way to find change. If you want clarity, support, or simply someone safe to talk to, I am more than happy to help!

Accepting New Clients! (See newconnectionstherapy.ca for more). I’m Brendon Olson of New Connections Therapy. I believe that symptoms of mental health, addiction and behavioral problems may have some biological origins but are most often coming from well-meaning protector parts of us that are functioning to help us prevent or disconnect from our pain. In my non-pathologizing approach, I help you find your authentic Self and help you get to the bottom of the issue instead of merely focusing on the symptoms. Healing from underlying pain frees your system up to not have to be stuck with symptoms and behaviors of pain management.

Hello! I am an attachment-oriented psychologist specializing in treating anxiety, stress, shame, trauma, and relational concerns. My practice is grounded in the belief that we are all hard-wired for connection. I believe that psychological distress is a symptom of disconnection. We can experience disconnection with ourselves, others, or a combination of both. I help people flush out what kind of connection they are looking for and how to get it. Quite often, this means having to shed old patterns in order to make room for the new.

After working 18 years in the oilfield and an uncertain economy rearing itself all around Albertans, I decided that it was time to get a different kind of education. While enjoying over 7 years of post-secondary education I learned through counselling how to live in my new world. Not only as a different kind of man, but clean and sober as well (now 11 years living in complete sobriety from alcohol and drugs).

Male Counsellors
As a man, why might I want to see a male therapist?
There are many reasons a man might wish to work with a male therapist, including a degree of shared identity, which may help client and therapist connect to each other and allow for a more free-flowing discussion of issues that can be deeply personal. Some men may feel more comfortable talking to a male therapist about relationship concerns, the pressures they feel around the roles society and family place on men, career or job challenges, self-esteem, or anger problems. For some men who have not had a male role models in their lives, a good male therapist may be especially helpful.
How can I find out about a therapist’s experience treating men?
Individuals looking for treatment should feel comfortable directly asking a therapist about their history treating men overall and the issues that arise in therapy with men. A good therapist will be happy to discuss such matters as well as their educational background, approach to treatment, and how they think they can aid a prospective client. Prospective clients should also ask what the expectation is for treatment, and what the fee structure is, and whether and which insurance plans are accepted.
Can clients benefit from having a therapist of the same gender?
Therapy is not gender-specific, but some men as well as women feel more comfortable opening up about their experiences and history with a male therapist. An individual may feel that they have to explain less background information and be on the same page more quickly, particularly when discussing gender-specific challenges, in the case of male clients. Some women have prior negative experiences with women that predispose them to prefer working with a male in therapy. That said, a good clinician can transcend most if not all gender concerns. Ultimately, the most important factor in therapy is the connection and trust the client is able to build with the practitioner.
Would a male therapist have specific training in treating men?
Generally, no. There are no certifications for treating men specifically, but there are continuing education classes that therapists may take that focus on treating men as a group. There are many therapists who focus on men and male issues in their treatment and therefore have experience and expertise in this domain.
