Pregnancy, Prenatal, Postpartum Therapists in Calgary, AB

It is so hard to be a woman in 2024! We received constant messages throughout our lives about what it means to be a woman and a mom. As a result, we internalize these unrealistic and patriarchal standards and can be left feeling like a failure when we inevitability do not measure up. No wonder so many women and moms feel stressed, burnt out, inadequate, and worthless! How do we cope? We beat ourselves up because we believe we are the problem. Many of us develop a strong inner-critic and unhelpful habits to cope with the pressure and the sensed failure. I promise you that you are not a failure - society has failed you.

Have you felt unseen, unheard, invisible? Do you feel too much, too loud, too big, too emotional, or too WEIRD? Do you feel stuck, overwhelmed, in crisis, unsure of the path to take? Hi, I'm Steph and I'm happy and grateful you have found me. I am passionate about supporting clients in life transitions from birth to death, working with people feeling stuck (anxiety, depression, identity issues, stress, anger, trauma), grief and loss (including anticipatory grief and parents mourning the death of their child), and perinatal mental health (loss, trauma, infertility, abortion, postpartum) and parenting support.

Do you find yourself feeling exhausted, burnt out, or anxious? Recently welcomed a new baby and can't stop thinking about your challenging birth experience? Struggling to find your groove as a couple? Overwhelmed with intrusive thoughts and fears? Tearful and feeling overwhelmed? Those that reach out to me for help are typically suffering from trauma, depression, anxiety, intrusive thoughts, and struggles coping with this emotionally demanding stage of life. I support individuals that want to learn skills to regulate, manage mood, improve their coping, and enjoy pregnancy and parenting.

For Jenny, the therapeutic relationship is the foundation for all work in counselling. She believes the client is the expert in their own lives and feels privileged to hear their stories.

She hopes through reflection and learning, any clients she works with ultimately feel more clarity, liberty from old patterns, and peace in their lives.

I work in perinatal mental health, meaning anything to do with the parenting journey! Whether you are pregnant, postpartum, TTC, struggling with infertility or loss, or are thinking about kids at all, you have come to the right place! You do not have to go through this incredible transition alone.

Thank you for visiting my profile :) I'm an experienced Registered Psychologist. I operate a general private practice, focusing mostly on individual counselling with adults.

Their struggle is real and there is hope. You can and will feel better with the proper support.

You're a high-achieving professional or mom who's getting stuck in your tendency to overthink things. You realize your thoughts are irrational, but can’t get them out of your head. I help moms who are overwhelmed, numb, disconnected, struggling to juggle everything (aka supermom syndrome), or more irritable with others. You feel afraid, guilty, alone, and no longer recognize yourself. You may be having scary thoughts about your baby and are afraid to tell anyone. Others have no clue you're struggling in this way and you're just trying to keep it together.

Hello & welcome to our little corner of the internet. It takes courage to reach out for help. Whether you are doing so for the first time or are returning, I commend you for taking this step. Trauma (single-episode; complex; perinatal; developmental), and anxiety & depression can significantly affect our mental, physical and emotional health, relationships and daily life. Hurts from long ago can continue to affect us in profound and sneaky ways, even if we thought we had dealt with them. You do not need to hurt forever. In therapy, we will work together to understand the problem, heal the hurts and get you living your best life.
