Adults Therapists in Sherwood Park, AB

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.

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 work from a highly collaborative and strength based approach. I am highly aware that every client has their own story; each and everyone being just as important. My goal is to support your journey, and help you take the right next steps.

Does it ever feel like your emotions have taken over? Stress, anger, anxiety, and depression are real and can feel insurmountable. Maybe you're grieving and want support on what to do next. Or pain from your past is impacting you today. You might feel like you've lost hope in your relationships. Humans crave relationship but that doesn't make it easy or fulfilling. Life can feel lonely, scary, overwhelming, and even hopeless at times. You may feel stuck and lost. If this is you, it’s time to reach out. Seeking support takes courage and is an important step in your journey towards the life you want.

I have significant experience working with clients who have experienced trauma, depression, anxiety, stress and the associated challenges of addictions, relationship breakdown, and isolation. I regularly work with individuals and couples. I enjoy helping clients through periods of transition. My clients come from many walks of life and cultural backgrounds. I have done a significant amount of clinical work with clients from many cultural and religious backgrounds.

It takes courage to tell your story, and I aim to foster an environment where you can feel safe to do so. Developing a strong therapeutic relationship is essential, so you can expect warmth, genuineness, and humour as I work to help you navigate life's challenges. As I believe that people are experts of their own lives, you can expect each session to meet you where you are at, to discover your unique strengths, acquire coping skills, and get in touch with your values in order to live a rich and meaningful life.

Hi, I'm Hayley, and I love hearing your story. Many people believe therapy to be a one sided conversation with minimal opportunity to interact or experience one another as real people. I aim to give my authentic self to my clients where I invite them to share their thoughts, experiences, and emotions. My clients appreciate my ability to create a safe and relaxed environment, with a healthy dose of humour. I want to help you find healing and make the changes in your life you are looking for, while you enjoy the process as much as possible.

Our team of counsellors, social workers, and psychologists are available to support you on your mental health journey. We understand that life can sometimes be challenging and complicated, especially as people, relationships, and the needs of the family evolve and change. The quality of our relationships impact how we cope, relate and respond. We believe that having positive connections and strong, consistent support are essential to a persons health, wellbeing, and quality of life. Our community of therapists provide a safe and healthy environment of support for individuals, couples, teens, parents, and families.

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 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.

My experience is working with people experiencing anxiety, depression, PTSD, veterans, first responders, pre-teens and teens, sexual assault, trauma and domestic violence. I believe in meeting people where they are to start addressing the experiences or stressors by working together to help ease the distress that you may be experiencing.

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.

I love working with trauma and have specialized experience with first responders. I get how it changes the way you think, feel and act so can work with emotional dysregulation and behavioural issues too. Addiction is common, and often a way to cope, and it's the underlying issues I enjoy nurturing and healing. At times, I work with people struggling in relationships, sometimes with themselves, or as they adjust to relational changes or losses. Other times I support people as they navigate life transitions like career changes, pregnancy/parenthood, health issues, or the effects of aging.

I provide individual and couples therapy. I have worked with clients who are struggling with self worth, trauma, addictions, imposter syndrome, depression, anxiety, performance challenges (sports psychology) communication challenges, life stress, and workplace difficulties. The feedback that I get from my clients is that they feel seen, heard and supported. While many people come to me struggling with issues in their lives, I also know that therapy does not have to be always so intense. Laughter and joy are a part of my sessions, as are space for deep discovery and emotional connection.

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.

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.
