Asian Therapists in Edmonton, AB

Starting therapy can be a daunting task and you have taken the first step in your journey by reaching this profile. I offer you a warm Hello and Congratulations on taking this first big step. My name is Cozy Kumaria and I am a Registered Psychologist. My main focus is to provide my clients with a safe and non-judgmental space while assisting the client to foster a sense of meaning and empowerment within their lives. I focus on developing a strong therapeutic rapport with my clients while working collaboratively with them on their goals. I do not believe that “one size fits all” as such I follow an eclectic approach to therapy.

Good psychologists devote ample time to listening to and helping their clients. No one should have to feel like they are making an elevator pitch when they see their therapist. I offer longer sessions which allow for deeper discussions and help that is personalized to your lived experience, strengths, and culture. My approach is calming, caring, insightful, and creative, and I'm also trained to discuss topics that some psychologists don't have the comfort or cultural knowledge to address. Together, let's start building a way forward free from struggle with negative emotions and towards a more meaningful and fulfilling life!

As an Intern Mental Health Therapist and certified Grief Recovery Specialist, I strive to create a non-judgemental, validating space for individuals to explore their thoughts and emotions. I use an integrative approach to therapy, drawing from therapeutic models that foster strength, acceptance, and change such as Internal Family Systems (IFS), Dialectical Behaviour Therapy (DBT), and EMDR. I have worked with individuals experiencing anxiety, depression, grief, emotion dysregulation, Autism, and trauma. The majority of my experience is with adolescents and young adults, but I welcome individuals of all ages and backgrounds.

Are you living in 2 worlds as a South Asian Canadian, hiding parts of your identity? This conflict leaves you experiencing guilt, shame, anxiety, a loss of autonomy and self, as you walk the tightrope of everybody's expectations of you. Growing up in a home environment that is completely different from your outside world can drastically impact your well-being and leave you asking “Who am I”? This can be exacerbated by enmeshed family dynamics. Culturally using your voice and setting boundaries feels selfish at first - but we can get you there together. You will learn and unlearn things as you proudly grow into your authentic self.

I am an Occupational Therapist (OT), Psychotherapist working in the field of spiritual/transpersonal psychology. The term "occupation" in OT does not directly refer to your job (a common misconception!). Rather, "occupations" are defined as your personally meaningful activities. I collaborate with clients who are interested in engaging in more spiritual, self-care & leisure activities to help improve their mental health. As your OT, I will combine activity engagement, spiritual care and psychotherapeutic modalities (Emotional Freedom Techniques, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, etc.) to support your healing/recovery.

Over 17 years, I have worked with clients from diverse backgrounds, and assisted many of them in tough situations, including trauma in different life stages. I provide individual, couple, and family sessions to support you through challenging times.

Hi there! Thanks for stopping by my profile. If you are someone who is struggling with work-life balance stress, relationship challenges, or parenthood, I would love to hear from you. Adjusting to change in our lives such as welcoming a new baby, ending a relationship, and making career changes can be both stressful and exhilarating. Often, major life changes involve a component of grief and finding a new sense of self-identity. Through solutions-focused and values-based work, I help clients to find their footing and increase confidence in the midst of change and uncertainty.

Hey! I'm Christopher, a Registered Provisional Psychologist. I work with teens, adults, couples and families dealing with a variety of concerns. I value flexibility, a deep connection and fun. I strive to meet you wherever you are in life's journey, whether that's diving deep and wading in the dark or if you're feeling stuck and need to untangle the mess. I aim to listen wholeheartedly and offer a safe, nonjudgmental space where you can be authentic. Lastly, I believe the journey is about progress (no matter how small) over perfection, which can be made a lot smoother when we are able to exhale and share a few laughs along the way.

On the outside, you are a professional/executive who has everything! Yet, on the inside, you struggle with anxiety, impostor syndrome, overthinking, feeling stuck and defective. You even feel guilty and "ungrateful" for being dissatisfied with your life, and for not spending enough quality time with your loved ones. In fact, you feel lonely at times. You can tell that your work life is negatively impacted by your difficulties; your biggest fear is that one day, you will lose everything you worked so hard for, and that you will never achieve the work and personal lives, as well as the romantic relationship, you yearn for.

I have a passion to empower others and share a wealth of skills and tools I have learned throughout my own life and education. I want to help each client create a positive, hopeful and fulfilling life. As a registered Social Worker, I have over 10 years of professional experience working with all age groups. My work includes providing different therapies including CBT, DBT, Solution-focused and Client-centered therapy in a Trauma Focused environment. I have also helped clients work through grief and loss, and I believe I am a provider of hope and comfort.

As humans, we will experience feelings of burnout, anxiety, or depression at some point in our lives, and talking to a psychologist can help. I have seen firsthand the transformative power of therapy and the incredible progress individuals can make as they learn to navigate their emotions, build resilience, and create meaningful connections with others. Since there is no “one size fits all” approach, I will work in collaboration with you to come up with a unique game plan that fits your needs and most of all, works! I am here to help support and push you towards achieving your personal, professional, and lifelong goals.

Life feels so disappointing. Despite trying, you can't seem to figure out how to make things better but you know you need them to change. Thinking of how things have been, you feel overwhelmed, upset, and at times detached from your current reality. You struggle to feel good enough and connect to joy in your life. You catch yourself wondering if things will ever feel ok. At some point your authentic self got lost and you can’t quite figure out how to get it back. You long to feel fulfilled and connected within your life. You are looking for a therapist who really gets you and has the tools to help.

Self care isn’t just about managing things like anxiety or depression. It is about recognizing when you’re stuck and finding a way to move forward. It’s about thriving, instead of just surviving. It’s about unlocking the potential you know is there. In our work together, you will benefit from my multifaceted approach, including being welcomed by Nibby, my four-footed companion. When you enter my office, you will notice a variety of seating options, offered as a means to help you to tune in to your body and what feels most comfortable.
