SEX THERAPY | COUPLES COUNSELING | GENDER-AFFIRMING CARE | TRAUMA-INFORMED SUPPORT
Are you feeling disconnected from yourself or your relationships?
Are past experiences, internal conflict, or unmet needs making it harder to move through life with clarity and confidence?
Have you felt misunderstood, overlooked, or invalidated in traditional mental health spaces? If so, I want you to know that change is possible—and you're not alone.
I'm Nicholas (Nick) Breitenbach (he/they), a Registered Psychologist practicing in Red Deer, Alberta. At Eros Therapeutic Services, I offer a warm, affirming, and nonjudgmental space for individuals and couples to explore their inner worlds, deepen their relationships, and reconnect with their values, identity, and sense of purpose. My practice is client-centered, trauma-informed, and deeply rooted in equity and compassion.
I specialize in sex therapy, trauma recovery, gender-affirming therapy, and relationship counseling—including for couples and other relationship structures like polyamorous or non-monogamous partnerships. These are areas of practice that require more than general therapeutic knowledge. They demand specialized training, cultural humility, and lived understanding—all of which inform the work I do.
HOW I HELP
Whether you're navigating anxiety, shame, intimacy issues, gender identity, or relational stress, I offer therapy that is collaborative and personalized to your needs. I draw from evidence-based modalities including:
-
EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) for trauma and nervous system regulation
-
Attachment-informed frameworks to help rebuild trust and safety in relationships
-
Somatic and mindfulness-based therapies to foster body awareness and resilience
-
Narrative therapy to support meaning-making and self-understanding
You can expect a space that welcomes your full humanity—your identity, experiences, values, pain, joy, and complexity. Therapy with me isn’t about “fixing” you; it’s about helping you come home to yourself.
WHO I WORK WITH
-
Individuals navigating trauma, burnout, anxiety, and shame
-
LGBTQ2S+ clients exploring identity or healing from minority stress
-
Folks seeking a gender-affirming space to process transition, dysphoria, or intersectional experiences
-
Couples and non-traditional relationships looking to rebuild connection and communication
-
Clients healing from spiritual or religious trauma
-
People struggling with intimacy, desire, or sexual health concerns
-
Professionals, caregivers, and frontline workers seeking emotional sustainability
THERAPEUTIC VALUES
I believe that safety, trust, and collaboration are foundational to the therapy process. You deserve a therapist who sees you, hears you, and walks with you—not in front or behind, but alongside. My work is grounded in consent, anti-oppressive practices, and an ongoing commitment to education and accountability.
