Adults Therapists in Sherwood Park, AB

My goal is to help you maximize your fullest potential on and off the playing field, as well as provide helpful strategies to help you achieve your goals. Many obstacles can present themselves in our daily lives that can be overwhelming, confusing, or uncomfortable. This can leave us feeling disconnected from our experiences, goals, and ultimately our lives. By removing barriers that may prevent you from performing optimally, you make space for a bigger opportunity to grow, learn, and develop more self-awareness and to get a closer, deeper look at what you are capable of.

Mat is passionate about helping people experience change and improved performance by building into individual strengths and personality strengths. As an athlete, business wonder, and former coach, Mat is uniquely qualified as a sport and performance psychologist. Mat’s goal is to help you become so aware of who you are that, as you progress through life or sport, you can become truly confident in your abilities.

Hello and welcome. Are you currently struggling and feeling overwhelmed? Are you finding it difficult to manage stress? Therapy provides the space to explore these challenges, so you can create new meanings, hope and new beginnings. As a therapist, I work in partnership with you, providing a warm, supportive environment where you can explore your thoughts, feelings and experiences. Together, we can work toward finding solutions to the problems you've been struggling with, identifying ways that you want to create meaningful change in your life.

I believe people experience psychological/emotional suffering because they are not able to relate deeply enough to certain aspects of themselves. This disconnection causes "symptoms" and pain. Depression and anxiety are the most common, but they can further develop into problems with identity, addictions, anger, suicidal feelings, despair, problems in relationships, personality disorders etc. To relieve suffering and to further ones personal development, a deeper connection with self is needed. The clients I usually work with are people who feel thwarted in their attempts to be happy, have satisfying relationships, achieve success.

I strive to create a warm, supportive, non-judgemental environment for my clients to work on issues causing distress. I believe in using a person-centered approach and empowering others to address issues in their lives. I incorporate various therapeutic interventions including Cognitive Behavior Therapy, EMDR, and solution focused approaches to provide clients with practical skills they can incorporate into daily life. Some of my areas of interest include intergenerational trauma, burnout, boundary setting, complex relationships, grief, anxiety, and depression.

I take a strength-based and collaborative approach to helping an individual and their family understand their unique learning and behavioural profile. I am passionate about helping my clients identify the way they learn best and in turn, provide individually tailored, evidenced-based recommendations. I strive to help students, families, and school personnel teams navigate student's unique academic challenges.

Having authentic connections can impact our ability to fully engage ourselves in the work needed to create change. I have found that sometimes the most profound, transformative healing takes place within the simplicity & safety of a supportive client-therapist relationship. Authenticity, trust & respect are the guiding principles of my trauma-informed, spiritually sensitive and culturally safe practice. Rooted in positive psychology and mindfulness approaches, my counselling sessions integrate several evidence-based therapies including EMDR for trauma, DBT and CBT for anxiety, narrative & rational emotive informed therapies.

NOT currently taking new clients-> I enjoy supporting children, teens and parents through life's challenges such as depression, divorce, grief, anxiety, or social struggles. I offer compassionate treatment for individuals to make sense of themselves and the world. I also have a passion for sports psychology and work with athletes of all ages. As a former competitive athlete and nationally certified coach for 20 years I help athletes with performance anxiety, life-sport balance, coping with injury, managing retirement, and moving past fears and mental blocks.

I am passionate about helping people live life to their fullest potential, working with my clients towards ensuring they can heal and evolve to move forward from trauma, grief, workplace bullying, addictions, through anxiety and life transitions.

If you want to build upon your self awareness, create closer relationships, understand your relational triggers/trauma responses, work to be assertive, increase your connection to yourself, and increase self compassion, I would be privileged to support you.

Feeling safe, valued, and heard is an incredible experience! That is something we can offer you at Midnight Sun Wellness. I am a Registered Provisional Psychologist and I truly believe in the importance of bringing compassion, non-judgemental, open and safe space to the therapy experience for individuals to explore, heal, and grow. I work with depression, anxiety, grief & loss, trauma, MVA, chronic pain, life transitions, relationship and self-esteem concerns. I work with individuals, couples, and families. I also offer sessions in Turkish.

A little about myself, I have worked in Human Services for the past 30 years, from ABA programs, Children’s Services, assessments, and Mental Health Therapy. This work has offered me vast experience working with many populations, such as Veterans, First Responders, trauma survivors, Indigenous People and Persons with Disabilities.

The unfortunate truth is that life will always present tough times and challenges. Trauma and stress do not discriminate and can be immensely impactful. It may be easier at times to repress difficult feelings and emotions, rather than face them head-on. However, what is repressed can slowly seep out into multiple areas of one's life, impacting self-esteem, relationships, ability to cope, etc. Together, we can work on your goals to enhance what you already have within you to cope, regulate, and enhance your quality of life.

I am a Registered Psychologist who is skilled at working with individuals who are presenting with challenging or high risk behaviours (e.g. sexual harm, aggression). Although these are specific areas of interest, I am open to discussing any potential issues or concerns you may have in order to help you overcome whatever challenges you face. I am particularly interested in working with people who are contemplating life changes (e.g. relationships, careers) and would like help to put their ideas into action.

I believe that we should all have the skills and tools to be successful and resilient while finding your voice. I believe that confidence and self-esteem are important in our lives and that our goals should be consistent with our own desires. I work from a holistic perspective and hope that even though the skills we work on may be sport-specific but that you can adapt those skills to work in other areas of your life. My goal as a sport and performance psychologist is to help change sport and performance culture to be a more healthy community while also reducing mental health stigma.

I approach each individual with compassion and empathy. My work and lived experience, along with ongoing education is broad - having worked in hospital and community settings, concurring with years of experience working privately with individuals, couples, and families. I am passionate about my work and strive to build rapport, connections, self-worth, and provide strategies and tools for individuals to meet their goals and attain an overall life balance. If you are feeling "stuck or seeing patterns" in a relationship or within yourself, a job, family, health, or other areas of life, reach out, let's talk about it!

Hello there! My name is Rebecca, and I am so excited to potentially work together with you! My absolute passion is working with people along their path of change. There is nothing more gratifying than walking alongside someone in their life’s journeys. My other absolute passion is helping clients work through trauma. I understand that trauma can affect all aspects of life and can be so complex and multi-faceted. I am so lucky to have worked with countless clients who have been able to heal after years of carrying these heavy burdens. My approach to therapy is non-judgmental, compassionate, and sensitive.

Do you struggle with anxiety or depression that affects your day-to-day life? Do you feel overwhelmed by what it means to live up to other people's impossible standards of you? Or like there is no light at the end of the tunnel? Do you ever wonder if your life could just be.. well, better? Now more than ever, people everywhere are feeling lost and overwhelmed about creating a life that's worth living. We believe there is hope, and there are answers.

My approach to therapy is always genuine, authentic, and client led. My experience in this field started by supporting those enduring crisis. I have a great passion for suicide prevention, intervention, and safety planning. I have spent the last five years working with female victims/survivors of domestic/intimate partner violence which has allowed me to understand and empathize the various journeys we take as individuals. I believe that everyone is entitled to having their stories heard and their emotions validated.

Most of us have a sense of the reasons for our difficulties. Yet, we still struggle to work through those issues, understand how they all fit together, and make lasting changes. My approach to therapy fundamentally involves helping clients to find insight about their difficulties through coming to a deeper understanding of themselves, and about understanding how trauma has impacted their lives. One of the ingredients to my approach is self-compassion. With self-compassion comes the ability to see oneself clearly, freedom to become one's true self, and relief from self-consciousness, depression, shame, fear, and anxiety.

If you are looking to overcome past traumas or adverse experiences; to manage symptoms related to anxiety, post-traumatic stress, grief, mood disorders, or body-focused repetitive behaviours, I believe my extensive training and experience can help. My personal experiences as a wife, a parent, and a trauma survivor allow me to empathise, and build meaningful relationships with my clients. We all have the strengths needed to move toward healing, and therapy can be the key to getting there. I consider myself extremely fortunate to have Lions Foundation of Canada Dog Guide Indy available to join you on your journey to finding your joy!
