***Katie is accepting new adult clients only!***
As a counsellor, I believe that it is my role to be supportive as I help you navigate life's challenges. I enjoy learning about who my clients are and try to see the world through their perspective in order to understand how I can be most helpful. I believe that even small changes can be powerful in fostering hope and fulfillment in your life. I use cognitive behavioral therapy, solution focused therapy, person-centered therapy, and narrative techniques in my practice. I also pull from other theories as I tailor my approach to fit the unique needs of my clients.
I work with individuals in a private, one on one setting. My areas of interest include anxiety, depression, stress, interpersonal relationships, boundaries, emotional regulation, and life transitions. I strive to create a welcoming, non-judgmental space so that you feel comfortable sharing your thoughts and experiences. I believe that a therapeutic relationship where you feel heard, understood, and accepted is the most valuable resource I can offer you on your journey to create meaningful and lasting change.
I can offer thoughtful, exploratory conversations to help you better understand the challenges that you are facing & collaboratively develop coping strategies to help you along your way. Clients share that things seem clearer when talked about openly without fear of judgment. I understand the courage it takes to share deeply about yourself and your life, and I do my best to create a space for my clients to feel safe enough to do so.
I am a Registered Psychologist originally from Winnipeg, Manitoba, but I have lived in Calgary for the past 10 years. I received my Bachelor of Arts (Honours) in Psychology at the University of Manitoba and earned my Master of Counselling at Gonzaga University.
The quote, “Those mountains you are carrying, you were only supposed to climb.” from Najwa Zebian resonates with me as I consider what many of us go through when faced with life’s challenges. Let’s climb your mountain together and help you conquer it!
