Meet Devany

Devany is currently on parental leave until 2025. Please book with one of our other therapists.

I work with individuals aged 16 and older.

My areas of specialty include: - Trauma, including EMDR work - Substance misuse and abuse - Chronic illness and health concerns - Post-secondary/young adult concerns - Anxiety - Depression and suicidal ideation - Life transitions - Stress management and self-care - Emotional regulation

Many of the folks I see are looking for a safe place where they can explore, learn, heal, and grow with someone they trust. It is my goal to provide a supportive and empowering environment where you can utilize your internal strengths and resourcefulness to create meaningful change. Life can be difficult and overwhelming at times, and often we feel alone in our suffering. I believe healing happens in relationship, and together, we will use mindful awareness and curiosity to explore and understand your emotions, thoughts, behaviours, and body. Although we aren’t able to completely free our lives of challenges, it is my hope that therapy can provide you the awareness, skills, and self-compassion you need to create a life that is more fulfilling and peaceful.

I have experience working in private, post-secondary, and community settings. My formal education is in neuroscience and counselling psychology, as well as yoga instruction, all of which helps me to integrate many different layers of the human experience. I’m so glad you are here and I look forward to connecting with you!

At MP, we love Devany for her relaxed presence, her mindful approach, and her wealth of knowledge.

Meet Nicole

Note: Nicole is not currently accepting new clients. Please book with one of our other therapists.

I help people like you understand the reasons for your suffering and create a roadmap for a more content and fulfilling life. I believe that a large part of the stigma surrounding mental health comes from a belief that mental health struggles and mental illness are a result of some sort of inherent flaw or inadequacy. I approach my work from the perspective that there is a logical reason (often many) for your struggle. There is a piece of the puzzle that makes your struggle (or your symptoms) make sense. If we can figure out what this is, we have a roadmap for moving forward.

I have provided individual and group counselling services in private, school, and community settings. I love education and learning so I also regularly facilitate workshops focused on mental health and wellness and am an author and post-secondary instructor in the area of psychology. I recognize that no single approach is the right one for everyone, and have been trained in a range of evidence-based modalities, including Narrative, Constructivist, Cognitive Behavioural, Mindfulness-Based, and Acceptance and Commitment Therapies, as well as Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR). Not sure what those names mean? Not to worry, I’m happy to explain. I also have a background in biological sciences, which helps me to integrate an understanding of the biological and neurological basis of mental health.

Meet Anna

I work with school-aged children (6-12) and adults across Alberta.

My areas of specialty include: - Anxiety - Emotional regulation, including anger management - Depression - Trauma, include ART work - Sleep concerns - Family and relationship concerns - Parenting and co-parenting concerns - Grief and loss - Life transitions (relationship and career changes, parenting and empty nesting, illness or injury, or moving - Self-esteem and self-care - Stress management

I believe therapy is built on trust, safety, and mutual respect, and so I bring my real self to my relationship with clients in order to meet and discover the ‘self’ you want to become. Together, we will explore the physical, emotional, and environmental factors creating friction in your life, and work towards sustainable and meaningful change. This may include learning new skills, processing emotions, and finding meaning in your past and present experiences. Life is full of challenges, and I will accompany you in learning to build resilience in the face of those challenges, without becoming overwhelmed. My clients share that I bring warmth, authenticity, and a calm presence to our sessions, acknowledging individual strengths and the uniqueness of your life experiences.

My work in the areas of community mental health and domestic violence have strengthened my flexible and inclusive approach. I have had the opportunity to support clients who are experiencing anxiety, depression, life transitions, relationship challenges, frustrations with parenting, low self esteem, addiction, and sleep issues. I draw primarily on acceptance and commitment therapy, cognitive behavioural therapy, solution-focused therapy, narrative techniques, and emotion-based work in my practice, maintaining a person-centred approach first and foremost.

At MP, we love Anna for her warm and calming presence and her great sense of humour!

Meet Amber

I have a true passion for helping people live their best lives.

I offer you an authentic and warm approach to counselling that you may find refreshing. This is based upon my core value of integrity as you share your vulnerable moments with me. I operate from a wide lens to determine the best strategies to reach your goals which may seem difficult in the beginning of therapy.

At MP, we love Amber for her wealth of knowledge and experience, her wisdom, and her calm demeanour.
