Find A Psychologist in De Winton, AB.

As a registered psychologist I've found that the most effective way to initiate and foster the therapeutic alliance and change process is to establish with a client right from the outset that their therapeutic “hero’s journey” is going to be one that relies on the rapport we establish/sustain (BOND), the relationship we build/maintain (GOALS) and the resources we engage/employ (METHODS). Such a co-creative therapeutic process will take time and practice; it will be ill-defined and uncertain; and, at times, it may feel vulnerable, but by courageously and whole-heartedly engaging in the work of counselling together the changes you seek will eventually become you.

Psychology focuses on understanding our emotions, thoughts, and behaviours and making sense of our past, present, and future to understand more about why we are the way we are, but also to help shape growth into the type of life we want to live. Working with a psychologist means you will have the chance to learn more about yourself, understand long-standing patterns of thinking, feeling, or acting, and take charge of your future. I draw from approaches including CBT, ACT, EFT and EMDR to help customize a plan that supports your unique goals. You can expect to leave each session with new insights or new ideas to put into practice to help you feel better and live life more fully outside of therapy sessions.
