Hi! I’m Pavaneet, a Registered Provisional Psychologist who is passionate about supporting children, adolescents, and families.

My goal in the process of assessment is to be able to guide you along the way and to provide a safe and compassionate environment. I strongly believe that clients are the experts of their own lives and so my role will be to empower you to discover those strengths in order to support you with reaching your true potential.

Hi! I’m Chantal. The work I do with clients is gentle, responsible and attuned. Clients are encouraged to explore their presenting concerns within a therapeutic relationship that aims to be warm, safe, and reciprocal. I honour every opportunity I have to sit with people in their vulnerabilities. Together, we explore current concerns and sometimes head back in time to heal old wounds that may be keeping people stuck or that may be limiting their ability to thrive in their current circumstances.

I became a Registered Psychologist in 2015. In 2018, I completed a 3-year professional skills training in the Hakomi Method of Psychotherapy, becoming a Certified Hakomi Therapist.

I am a mother, partner, coach and active community member who loves being outdoors (in the summer) and being near the ocean.

Hi! I’m Maigan, a mental health therapist who works with children aged 6-9, teens 15-18, and adults at a reduced rate. I’ve recently completed the practicum component for my Master of Counseling degree, and am finishing up the research component before applying to be a Provisional Psychologist with the College of Alberta Psychologists.

I believe that therapy should be unique and customized to fit your life and needs. I lean on a person-centred and strengths-based approach, and aim to infuse humour into healing and create an open and comfortable space for all. I firmly believe everyone holds the strengths and tools within them to navigate life’s challenges, and feel honoured to work alongside clients as they uncover and reconnect with these strengths.

When not working, I love to spend my time enjoying nature, gardening, and relaxing outdoors with my dogs, cats, and chickens.

Hi, my name is Kris. I am currently finishing my Masters in Counselling at City University of Seattle. I am non-binary, have two gender presentations, use they/them pronouns and go by Kris either way.

One of the foundations of my approach to therapy is the belief that we all have the capacity to become our own healers. Through that healing process, we can move towards a place of feeling more balance and harmony in and between our inner and outer worlds.

I believe in using a collaborative, client-led approach with the understanding that you are the expert of your life. I aim to create a safe and trusting environment where your wisdom and what I have learned about therapy come together to facilitate your healing process.

Some of my areas of interest include 2SLGBTQ+ issues, gender identity issues, couple’s issues, trauma, attachment, and internal somatic work.
