Find a Therapist in Okotoks, Alberta.

I strive to create a warm and compassionate environment where people feel safe to explore the issues they are struggling with. My work is informed by my belief that we are all the best experts of our own lives and that we each have the self-righting ability to heal and move towards increased wellness. I have created a unique and effective way of supporting others to overcome life's challenges by combining the latest research in brain development and attachment theory and the use of EMDR, Mindfulness based Cognitive Therapy, and Family System theory.

I aspire to create an affirming and judgement-free environment where individuals feel safe expressing their experiences as everyone deserves to be heard and witnessed for who they are. I can provide practical guidance and support and I incorporate humour and humility into my practice. I view treatment as holistic and do not subscribe to a "one size fits all" approach. While there can be common symptoms, each person brings their own unique experiences and perspectives to the challenges which they are currently facing, because of this I will always work with you to design a practical and specific treatment plan designed just for you.

At Kaimana Psychology Inc., our team provides psychotherapy in a collaborative, client-centered environment focused on meaningful, sustainable change. We tailor therapy to each person’s goals, drawing from evidence-based approaches to support emotional well-being, behavioural growth, and healthier relationships. Clients benefit from working with compassionate, skilled clinicians who prioritize safety, respect, and practical progress. Whether facing stress, life transitions, anxiety, or long-standing patterns, we help individuals gain insight, strengthen coping skills, and build resilience and equip clients with tools and confidence that extend well beyond the therapy room.

My approach to psychotherapy is to work with clients to increase their day to day presence and overall satisfaction in life. My goal is to help individuals make positive changes and move past the barriers that may be creating distress in their lives. It is practice approach to have clients understand their circumstances and find new ways of coping from within.

By using an integrated approach, I have access to many different theoretical orientations that allow me to be prepared for whatever client may come through my door. Through a holistic lens, I take into consideration variables from many different areas, and by doing so, I learn about my clients as wonderfully complex and layered individuals who have their own unique needs. Through collaboration and feedback I work together with my clients to ensure that they are getting what they need during their time in counselling.

James Hillman once said, "We've had a hundred years of psychotherapy and the world is getting worse." While there are many occasions where the validation and listening endemic to psychotherapy makes sense, there are times where we over assume that "feeling better" and "changing behavior" are the same. Grey Matters International, Inc. goes after the forgotten brain laws to behavior change that therapists miss when processing hours and hours of dialogues with people. Utilizing a cutting edge technology to facilitate the emotional process of change, we can make the therapy process way more effective, faster, and with less money spent.

Most of us don’t need another person telling us what to do. We need someone who gets it. Someone who can hold space without flinching. Someone we can trust with the messy, unfiltered, “please-don’t-judge-me” parts. We don’t believe in “fixing” people. We believe in helping you understand why you feel the way you do—and how to move through it with care.

We understand that sharing life’s ups and downs can be intimidating. At Curio Counselling, our goal is to provide a safe space where you can explore who you are and work toward who you want to be. Want to understand how your past is affecting you now? Ready to change old habits? Wondering how to access your inner strengths? We will guide you at a pace that feels comfortable for you. You do not have to figure out life all by yourself. Let's get started.

Gerard has diverse experience as a psychologist and leader in social services, schools, university, workplaces, and his private practice. Using a theoretical foundation of social learning and cognitive-behavioural training, he is well-versed in various kinds of formal and informal assessment and solution-focussed approaches. He listens carefully to understand your needs and relies on his extensive experience to help you find solutions.

My approach is integrative, person-centred, and grounded in compassion. I believe that therapy is most effective when it’s collaborative and tailored to your unique needs, goals, and values. I draw from evidence-based modalities such as Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Compassion-Focused Therapy (CFT), and mindfulness-based practices. Together, we’ll explore the patterns, beliefs, and emotions that may be keeping you stuck and work to develop practical tools for change. I aim to provide a safe, non-judgmental space where you can build self-awareness, strengthen emotional resilience, and foster self-compassion.

I help clients using cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT), a skill-based approach in which I am certified. Practicing skills to change your thinking and behaviour leads to success in addressing issues in the same way that practicing skills leads to success in a career, academics, sports, music and many other endeavours. I track progress using clients' reports of their well-being and monitor the quality of my relationship with clients by soliciting written feedback.
