Therapists in Edmonton, AB

I am a registered Clinical Psychologist in Edmonton, Alberta. Co-founder of the Edmonton Psychological Group. I have worked in both hospital and private practice settings. I work primarily with adults contending with: depression, anxiety, bipolar disorder, eating disorders, obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD), trauma, abuse, grieving, substance abuse, and personality disorders.

Kenneth has worked with families and individuals across the lifespan in a variety of settings for over a decade. These include Child and Family Services, Correctional Services, post-secondary education, the health care system, legal aid, the Alberta public education system, and several other social services organizations. He has a proven track record working with individuals and families experiencing multidimensional and complex challenges relating to trauma/PTSD, depression, family conflict, anxiety, behavioral problems, mental health conditions, emotional dysregulation, and addictions.

I am committed to supporting you in reaching your goals and will work together with you. I hope that we will create a positive relationship with one another and I commit to listening to you, respecting you, and giving you the space you need to explore your thoughts and move towards discovering new skills and solutions. Change takes courage and first steps are the hardest but I believe that "happiness is an inside job" and I commit to taking this journey together.

I am a compassionate and empathic Psychologist who truly believes that all people have the strengths and abilities to bring about change in their own lives and are an expert in their own lived experience. I specialize in working with children and adults who experience concerns including anxiety, depression, stress, ADHD, behavioural issues, emotional regulation concerns, self-esteem, body positivity, and trauma.

Supporting others begins with the presence of a safe space of openness and acceptance that facilitates a client’s innate yearning for healing, growth, and self actualization. My own journey has led me to the joy, mystery, and wonder of self discovery, the healing experience of healthy relationships, and finding meaning and purpose in life. The enjoyment in my work as a therapist comes from guiding clients on their journey to discover what brings them joy and to help them reconnect to their inner resources – their strengths, wholeness, peace, deeper nature, and internal guidance and wisdom.

Currently accepting new individual clients. My approach is grounded in the belief that it is within a safe, caring relationship where we feel heard and understood that resiliency and healing are found. It takes courage to reach for help when facing conflicts, loss, and a barrage of negative thoughts. In attempts to fit in we often loose sight of who we are, and drift away from being our authentic self. I integrate a number of therapeutic modalities adapted to your unique personality and circumstances including EMDR, Somatic Experiencing, and CBT to facilitate change.

Do you ever feel like you are doing life on hard mode? That you are stuck dealing with the same problems over and over or that things are just hard? Hi, I’m Megan! I’m a Registered Provisional Psychologist. I use evidence-based strategies to help you discover what life can be like with better mental health. People are all unique, and their therapy should be the same. I use my background and experience with therapies like Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavioral Therapy, Internal Family Systems, Gottman’s Couples Therapy and EMDR to help you discover what will work best for you. We’ll work together every step of the way.

If you are struggling with anxiety, depression, stress, relationship issues, self-esteem/confidence, sexual orientation, gender or body dysmorphia, PTSD, work or school/life balance, and/or addictions, counselling can help change unhelpful patterns and lead to better mental health and well-being. I work with clients to manage stress and achieve balance. I also work with clients to help with issues such as confidence, coping skills, and emotional regulation.

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!

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.

Dr. Polzin Holman has over 25 years of working in the field of mental health and addictions.

Thank you for reaching out to me. Is trauma, anxiety, depression or chronic pain, holding you back from reaching your goals? You've come to the right place! I am a Registered Psychologist (AB) and a Certified EMDR therapist with extensive education and tons of experience in the field of mental health, and chronic pain. My multicultural background and lived experience help me to connect empathetically with my clients. I am trained in various treatment modalities, such as EMDR, CBT, ACT, DBT, EFT etc. However, I do not believe in a one-size-fits-all. I trust your inner strength and believe we can work together to achieve your goals.

I am a Registered Psychologist with a Master’s degree in Counselling Psychology from the University of Alberta. My approach to therapy emphasizes the importance of confronting our painful emotions and experiences from a place of safety, curiosity, and honesty. I work with individuals and couples as well as teens and youth. I also have a special interest in working with men. I believe that men are often under resourced when it comes to accessing, expressing, and understanding their emotions, often leading to painful, yet avoidable, experiences.

I am a registered Psychologist with the College of Alberta Psychologists and a member of the Psychologists Association of Alberta. I have worked in private practice, public healthcare and educational settings in multiple countries. I have more than fifteen years of clinical experience working with diverse adults and youth.

A happy life is not experienced when everything is perfect, but when everything is in balance. I am committed to supporting you throughout your difficult experiences, whether it is a situational stress, or one that has been a long term concern. The goal is to assist you in moving closer towards becoming the best version of yourself! Many clients access services for support in managing anxiety and depression symptoms, problematic substance use, medical model cannabis use therapy, harm reduction, relationship concerns, and / or in understanding how their body responds to stressful, or even traumatic, experiences.

Welcome. Are you an adult who has experienced difficulties and are looking to make change in your life?

Together we will address these concerns so you can live a better and more balanced life. I offer an integrative approach drawing from a variety of modalities: CBT, DBT, EMDR, EFT, Jungian-oriented psychology, mindfulness, and positive psychology. My approach to therapy is collaborative and strengths-based.

I am passionate about helping people lead their best lives and overcome barriers that may be holding them back. With more than 25 years of experience as a psychologist I take an outcome-based approach based on clients desires. Having lived many years of my younger adulthood with anxiety, low confidence and eating disorders it is my goal to help individuals heal and move towards their potential rather than staying stuck in a cycle of helplessness and self-loathing.

Life can feel overwhelming. We can help. We are group of seasoned practitioners who specialize in assessment, play therapy, trauma therapy, equine-assisted therapy, and counselling services for children and teens experiencing social, emotional, behavioural, and learning concerns. We also offer a variety of therapeutic supports for adults, caregivers (perinatal and parenting support), couples, and families. We provide a supportive environment to feel heard and understood, while helping to build insight, coping skills, balance, and resiliency. Therapeutic support is tailored to your child and family's unique strengths and needs.

It is my belief that people have the strengths and abilities to navigate through life's challenges. The question is, "How do you use what you already have to meet life's challenges?" I work with individuals, groups, families, teams, and organizations collaboratively towards shared goals and outcomes that are rooted in evidence-based practices. Sessions are interactive, transparent, and optimistic. An eclectic approach rooted in Individual Psychology and Cognitive Behavioural Therapy offers the versatility for a culturally sensitive, non-judgmental, and an efficient working relationship.

I have 20 years of experience working with people who are dealing with personal and relational issues. My approach is collaborative and focuses on developing tools and strategies that personally fit each individual. I draw upon several treatment modalities to facilitate change, including CBT, EFT, ACT, Mindfulness, and Solution Focused Therapy. My areas of interest include depression; anxiety; couples/family/relational issues; parenting; grief/loss; anger management; life crises; and stress management. I work with individuals (adults), couples, and families in the context of a supportive environment that fosters exploring issues, developing awareness & strengths, and finding solutions to resolve issues.

With a background as an elementary school teacher, school counsellor, and school psychologist, I have a range of experiences working with children of all ages, and accept referrals from age 5 to 16. Play therapy and expressive arts are used to help improve problem-solving skills, enhance social connections, develop emotional regulation, and enhance self-esteem. I believe it really does "take a village" of adults at home, community and school to support the healthy growth and development of a child, and reaching out for support can be part of that process. Let's chat about your concerns and how to create a path moving forward!

I am a Registered Provisional Psychologist who enjoys working with both adolescents and adults in a genuine, safe and non-judgemental environment. I approach counselling with empathy, a sense of humour and a desire to empower clients so that they are able to build life-long skills and knowledge that will enable them to be masters of their own mental health. Because of my years of experience with coaching and teaching, my sessions include a great deal of psychoeducation with hopes to empower clients to be their own advocates and to build the resiliency they require to be successful in life.

Why aren't we as happy as we want to be? Sometimes life is full of stress and challenges, and we might lose our connection with the joyful part of ourselves. My goal is to help clients reconnect with their joy and live meaningful and satisfying lives. A strong client-therapist bond is essential to making therapy effective, therefore I focus on building and maintaining a positive therapeutic relationship that is non-judgmental, respectful, and compassionate. When working with clients I strive to create an atmosphere that promotes safety, self-compassion, insight, and helps to identify steps to take in order to move forward.

I am a doctoral psychologist and have worked with a range of clients across medical, oncological, psychiatric, and counselling settings.

My approach is integrative, drawing from existential, humanistic, Jungian, ACT, schema, CBT, experiential, narrative, IFS, and transpersonal therapies.
