Dr. David St. Arnault

We all get stuck, stumble, and struggle in life but we do better with the right support at the right time. I was born & raised in rural Alberta and grew up playing sports, getting by in school, & working labour intensive jobs (mostly in the oilfield), before and during my University education. I currently work full-time in private practice with a group of experienced psychologists, providing psychotherapy and formal assessment to school aged children, adolescents, & adults, with a specialized focus in traumatic stress, & couples/family therapy (including separated/divorced families). For nearly 10yrs I’ve facilitated a drop-in men’s support group at Momentum Counselling. I am passionate about supporting people to heal, cope, & thrive.

Dr. Laurie Ali

My approach involves understanding your unique circumstances, building a strong and trusting relationship, applying proven interventions and practical solutions to the problems, and using direct feedback to increase awareness of blind spots. I work with clients to address immediate challenges and to identify and treat the root causes for lasting change. My style has been described as warm, validating, and honest with a dash of humor.

Maria Malouf

Sometimes, the challenges we face can overwhelm our abilities to cope. This can lead us away from our values, sense of self and can make the future look uncertain.

During times of transition and uncertainty, we may require some extra support to help us make sense of the things getting in our way. My role as a therapist is not to provide you with an answer, it is to help you make meaning of your experiences.

I believe each person has their own innate wisdom and my job is to create a safe relational space for them to access it.

Dr. Al-Noor Mawani

I work with the individual in a client-centered way to focus on their goals for therapy. I then collaborate with the individual and integrate a variety of therapy models including Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, and Mindfulness-based therapies to help them better manage their difficulties and move toward their goals.
