Grief Therapists in Sherwood Park, AB

As a registered professional counsellor, I believe everyone has their own solutions to their problems and need a safe space to explore feelings and beliefs in order to come to a clearer understanding. I work with people who are frustrated with part of their life and have a strong willingness to try new things, get to know themselves better, and let go of patterns that no longer serve them. Working with someone who is confidential, compassionate and non-judgmental allows us the freedom to make long lasting change and regain a sense of empowerment in ourselves and our lives.

Many of us have experienced adversity in our lives, including myself. Whether it is trauma, chronic pain/illness, racial discrimination or struggles, grief and loss, or depression/anxiety, these experiences often leave us feeling mentally, physically, and emotionally drained. My experiences have taught me that each person experiences adversity differently, and therefore, requires a unique approach for their unique experiential reality. Moreover, I believe that every person has the desire, capacity, and ability to heal and experience growth.

Hi there! Finding the right therapist for you is one of the strongest predictors of success in therapy, but the search can be incredibly overwhelming. The fact that you are here means you have already taken the first (and often difficult) step in getting connected with the support you deserve. Whether you are struggling with anxiety, depression, trauma, relationship issues, grief, or are just feeling lost, you are not alone. Therapy helps you to navigate your emotions, make sense of difficult experiences, develop strategies to cope with stress and worry, and find a greater sense of purpose in life.

Are you seeking a counsellor to help you get through a difficult time or life challenge? A counsellor who can help you make positive change in your life? If you choose me as your counsellor, we will work together as partners on the way to positive change. You will be treated with respect and dignity, in a caring and safe environment. Your own resilience, knowledge and inner strength will be drawn upon to get the best result.

Sometimes, the more you try to hold it together on the outside, the more you fall apart on the inside. If you're feeling anxious, depressed, devastated, confused and overwhelmed by daily responsibilities, life transitions, relationships, grief or trauma, you're probably striving to get back on your feet. It happens to all of us and even the strongest can benefit from taking time to explore (often hidden or forgotten) inner resources. It's not a sign of weakness to seek support, but of wisdom: when what used to work no longer does, it's time to explore alternative options.

Everyone feels stuck from time to time. Together we can develop the skills and strategies to work towards the future you hope for. Whether you're interested in counselling or sport/performance psychology, we can build on your existing strengths and experiences to help you feel stronger and healthier, and do what you do better. Overall, the healthier and more balanced we are mentally and emotionally, the better we tend to perform in our lives. As a Registered Psychologist, I believe that being proactive in your personal development and well-being can make the present more manageable and set up a strong foundation for the future.

Often times in life we can experience personal challenges. These challenges can include losses and trauma. They can leave us feeling anxious or depressed. Counselling can help one make sense of what they have been through. Times of struggle and loss can force us to look inward to re evaluate what has meaning for us and perhaps find out what is our purpose. I have experience working with CAF, First Responders and Vets, as well as people who have experienced childhood trauma. Whatever the challenge we can work together to help you heal and come into wholeness.

I believe the quality of the therapeutic relationship is crucial to the effectiveness of psychotherapy. My goal as therapist is to establish a relationship with my client that will allow me to effectively understand them in a nonjudgmental way and challenge them to grow and gain new perspective. I seek to be emotionally present, authentic, respectful, open, honest, and deeply empathic. In building on my client's existing inner strengths, they are empowered to seek and make the changes needed to live full and satisfying lives.
