Intellectual Disability Therapists in Saskatoon, SK

Hi! I am a Registered Psychologist and I provide psychoeducational assessments for children (8yrs+), teens, and adults. I specialize in working with clients wondering if they may have a learning disability, ADHD, intellectual disability, or other related challenge impacting their school or work. Please note: I do not provide counselling or therapy services.

My passion is to assist clients who are feeling overwhelmed, and despite trying traditional therapeutic methods, are not able to fully understand, make sense of their experiences or sustain lasting change. I offer a combination of therapeutic methods from EMDR, ego state therapy, somatic therapy, clinical hypnosis and DBT to help many trauma survivors heal. For suitable clients, intensives are also available. Intensive trauma treatment allow for more sessions in a shorter period of time to help facilitate your recovery.

Struggles at school or at work? Feel like you are underachieving based on your potential and the amount of time and effort you put into tasks? Do you wonder whether you, or your child, may have a learning disability, ADHD, or other challenges to your learning and/or effective performance? If you answered yes to any of these questions, a psycho-educational assessment may be a helpful step in discovering more about your learning profile, potentially confirming a diagnosis, and recommending accommodations, interventions, and/or strategies to best support your academic or vocational success.

I am excited to offer virtual and in-person assessments through the Anderson Dupuis Wellness clinic in the areas of learning disabilities, intellectual disabilities, ADHD, mood, and anxiety disorders.

Hi there! I'm Amanda Ellis. I’m a Registered Psychologist with nearly a decade of experience providing psychological services in schools, and a passion for working with kids/youth and their families to ensure that every child not only understands their unique brain but knows that who they are is worth celebrating. I specialize in the identification of learning disabilities, intellectual disabilities, ADHD, and other challenges that may be impacting a child's ability to perform to their potential in school and life. (Please note: At this time, I am not available for counselling/therapy services.)

Have you or your child been struggling with academic success and/or difficulties with attention and focus? If yes, then a comprehensive psycho-educational assessment may be helpful! A psycho-educational assessment will gather information on individual strengths and weaknesses in various areas of cognition and academia.

Are you or your child experiencing difficulty reaching your full potential at work or school? Would you like to be experiencing more academic or occupational success? A psycho-educational assessment may be helpful to determine underlying causes of difficulties and how to overcome them.

I assist learners to reach their full potential by determining strengths and weaknesses, recommending strategies to help access strengths and support weaknesses, advocating for students with their school team, and helping to bolster self-confidence and self-advocacy. I diagnose specific learning disabilities, ADHD, and can assist with other behavioural challenges.

Hello. I am a registered social worker who received my Master of Clinical Social Work from the University of Calgary. I was born and raised in rural Saskatchewan but moved around to many places before settling back in the prairies! ​ My approach to counselling involves creating a safe and authentic relationship where you can express yourself freely and we can explore together. I am here to support you through difficult periods, create positive change, and to help you understand yourself more deeply. I enjoy working with people of all ages.

Work-life balance can be difficult to manage on your own, especially if you are struggling with mental health; whether that be from a recent traumatic event or historical trauma. Layered in this can be undiagnosed learning conditions and/or caregiving responsibility, which can lead to heightened emotional stress or crisis. It is helpful to have a support network; either in your personal life, in the community, or even medically. Creating boundaries for ones self is a big step and I can help through this by providing solution-focused, goal oriented strategies, hopefully creating more balance and getting back to your 'normal self'.

Hi, my name is Juliane Hydamaka. I’m a registered social worker who has held a variety of roles within my field. Regardless of my role, my passion was always in one on one support, building relationships, and helping people to navigate the complexities of their life. As a counsellor, I feel I’m truly where I am supposed to be; offering guidance, empathy, and an understanding of how vulnerable it can feel to open up to someone. My hope is to ease that discomfort by creating a space where you feel heard and safe to explore your thoughts and feelings.

What keeps us feeling like we are in limbo/stuck?
