Hey! I am a Registered Provisional Psychologist here in Alberta. For as long as I can remember two of my passionate interests in life have been wellness and stories. For me, my work brings these together in unique way that I find special. First, I must earn and understand the story of those who I work with. To truly listen and honour someone’s story is essential to create sense of safety and openness required for effective therapy. I aim create a space completely free of judgement and with compassion for the reality of being human. I hope this allows people to feel able to share about all parts of their life they wish to discuss. I have always been drawn to the stories of others and always feel honoured to have them shared with me. Second, we go to work to see what can be done to help them with whatever has brought them in. I always want to tailor this process to whatever they are hoping to get from therapy, so every approach is a little bit different. I draw from approaches including CBT, DBT skills, ACT, mindfulness-based practices, attachment work, and parts work to form a plan that will help them meet their goals. My own interest in wellness both mental and physical has caused me to explore many different avenues including diet, exercise, yoga, meditation, and even my own personal therapy on top of my learning as registered provisional psychologist. I aim to integrate this experience into care wherever it is helpful. I am particularly influenced in my approach by parts work and often frame things from this lens. I believe this non pathologizing and compassionate approach tends to help people better understand and extend kindness to themselves. I also aim to provide trauma informed care and a strength-based approach which fits well with parts work. Once there is a better understanding of how and why someone feels the way they do, additional resource can be drawn in as needed to help them meet their goals. I work a wide range of concerns that include anxiety, depression, childhood emotional neglect, trauma, various men’s issues, burnout and stress management, grief and loss, and relationship concerns. Outside the office you can find me weightlifting, hiking and camping, spending as much time as I can outside, and spending time with my family and friends. I look forward to the privilege of guiding you through your unique therapy journey!

Hi, I’m Chantelle. I am a counselling psychology intern with a background in psychology, criminology, and 18 years in law enforcement. Originally from Charlottetown, Prince Edward Island, I completed my Bachelor of Arts in Psychology and Criminology at the University of Ottawa.m My personal and professional experiences have helped me understand how stress, trauma, and life’s demands affect individuals and families.

Through my work, I have supported people in high-stress, emotionally complex situations, strengthening my ability to connect with others genuinely and compassionately. As a spouse of a first responder and parent of two teenage daughters, I understand the challenges of balancing family, relationships, and well-being.

I work with adolescents (10+), adults, and those in high-demand roles, including first responders and healthcare workers. I’m especially interested in supporting women experiencing stress, burnout, life transitions, or emotional overwhelm. My focus areas include trauma, emotional regulation, stress, work-life balance, and building healthy relationships through better communication and boundaries.

My approach to therapy is grounded in Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), with elements of Narrative Therapy, Emotionally Focused Therapy, and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT). I take a trauma-informed approach, recognizing how past experiences can shape current thoughts, emotions, and behaviours. I also integrate mindfulness and practical coping strategies to help clients feel more in control and better equipped in their daily lives.

I believe therapy should be collaborative, approachable, and tailored to each individual. My goal is to create a safe, non-judgmental space where you can show up as you are and feel supported in making meaningful, realistic changes. Whether you want to better understand yourself, manage stress, or navigate difficult experiences, I’m here to help you build awareness, confidence, and lasting coping skills.

Outside work, I enjoy time with my family, boating, reading, puzzles, and cheering for the Toronto Blue Jays. I’m a true crime fan, often listening to podcasts or watching documentaries. And at home, I’m happily outnumbered by my three cats, who, of course, run the house and just allow me to live there.

Hello!

In counselling, and in my own personal life, I don’t believe there is such a thing as coincidence. The journeys we make, the experiences we have, those we meet along the way, all guide us exactly where we are supposed to go (wherever that is!).

I have lived in four countries, moved over twenty times in thirty years, and, since 2018, have found Alberta a beautiful place to call home and build my career. I am honoured to hold space for my clients and support them, and it is a privilege I do not take lightly.

While I cannot change the extraneous elements of your life, I can certainly help you to improve your inner experiences that might make the journey more pleasant! When I am not working, you can find me at the dog park with my Great Dane, Ozzy, reading in my favorite lazy-boy recliner, increasing my strength at the gym, spending time with my loved ones, cracking bad jokes, or trying my hand at a new recipe.

​I am passionate about supporting Veterans, active CAF members, and First Responders. As part of a military family (spouse, sibling), I have an in-depth understanding of the specific culture, mentality, workplace-expectations, and higher probability of risks, illnesses, and disorders associated with these industries (e.g., OSI, PTSD, anger, family/marital strains, depression, anxiety, burnout). Additionally, I am interested in working with both adolescents and adults experiencing grief, loss, trauma, anxiety, depression, relationship issues, emotional regulation, and existential issues.

I enjoy helping clients make sense of their experiences, and find meaning, value, and understanding along the way. Rooted in a client-centred approach, I offer a supportive, nonjudgmental, and, at times, humorous environment to facilitate optimal growth for my clients.

​As a Provisional Psychologist, I offer evidence-based, therapeutic practices and modalities that aim to lessen suffering and increase positive health and well-being. I have training in Acceptance+Commitment Therapy (ACT), Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), Solution-Focused Brief Therapy (SFBT), and I bring a Trauma-Informed approach to all my sessions.

I believe in empowerment - every individual has the strength and potential to enact powerful change, I am simply shining a light on all the strengths and skills you already possess and can use to overcome life’s challenges.

I believe that trust is the bridge to change and support. Being able to fully trust your therapist and build a strong therapeutic relationship are essential in building an environment where you can feel comfortable and safe. While therapy can guide this process, I have learned that the mechanisms of change come from within, as each person is the expert in their own lives.

My approach to therapy is client-centred, evidence-based, and rooted in compassion. From a CBT perspective, I work alongside clients to clarify their goals and understand how certain thought and behaviour patterns may be standing in the way.

In addition to traditional CBT approaches, I utilize strategies rooted in Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), as well as other strengths-based approaches to enhance resilience and support individuals.

My clinical interests include men’s mental health, trauma, anxiety, depression, and attachment-related concerns. I am passionate about helping individuals better understand their patterns, strengthen their resilience, and move toward meaningful change.

Hello, I’m Kyla! I work with adolescents (13+), adults, and members of the LGBTQ+ community, supporting clients through challenges including OCD, identity exploration. interpersonal relationship concerns, and identifying behavioural patterns/cycles.

My approach is trauma-informed, attachment-based, and collaborative. I draw from Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP), Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT), CBT, IFS, and DBT to support clients in building insight, emotional resilience, and meaningful change.

I have a particular interest in working with obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD), intrusive thoughts, and working through attachment trauma. I strive to help clients better understand their internal experiences while gradually building confidence in facing fear, uncertainty, and overwhelming emotions with greater flexibility and self-compassion.

My goal as a counsellor is to provide a supportive and gently challenging space where clients feel safe to explore, heal, and grow. I believe meaningful change happens within a strong therapeutic relationship grounded in trust, authenticity, and curiosity.

Outside the counselling room, I’m an animal mom, plant lover, and someone who values being anywhere but the city.
