The focus of my approach is change-oriented and compassion-driven. Assessments are done at the beginning to best understand the individual and plan for helpful, change-oriented conversations.

Making the decision to ask for help is hard, being a man and asking for help is even harder. The expectations of masculinity have changed- I know I’ve lived it! I am a father, husband, friend and professional who is navigating these expectations-to be a protector and provider, a partner and mentor, an empathetic listener and a high-five celebrator.
My greatest learning is that vulnerability is strength, sharing is courage, and understanding yourself is vital. I will meet you where you are and together, we will figure out what will work for you. I have experience working with depression, anxiety, substance abuse, relationship, career change, divorce/separation, parenting, anger, and trauma (workplace/childhood). Let’s talk.

Family Counselling Centres Inc
Family Counselling Centres Inc
At Family Counselling Centres, we have abandoned the one-size-fits-all approach to mental health and wellness. We recognize that each case is acutely different than the next, which is why we believe in holistic wellness; an approach that considers the whole person. We also utilize the latest research in brain development and mental health methodology.
Our therapists provide a non-judgemental, safe, accepting and supportive presence. We understand that there continues to be stigma associated with mental health and accessing services. Our therapists are advocates for prioritizing mental health and we value a preventative approach.

As a Registered Psychologist, I am passionate about helping people experience meaningful, lasting change. I specialize in addressing many concerns, including: depression, anxiety, life transitions, relationship issues, stress and burnout, trauma/PTSD, work/school-related issues, and more. I have extensive experience counselling Alberta professionals including healthcare professionals such as physicians and nurses, educators, energy sector professionals, and more. I believe that meaningful change is best fostered when the therapy process is collaborative and client-centered. I practice from evidence-based approaches including solution-focused therapy, cognitive-behavioural therapy, and emotion-focused therapy.

Exchiela Benusic

In my practice, I support clients who are experiencing anxiety, depression, grief, stress, trauma, ADHD, and exhaustion. Life can be hard sometimes and my clients often tell me that they have so much going on in their lives that they’re struggling to manage their emotions. Many of my clients identify themselves as being helpers, healers, caregivers, entrepreneurs, advocates, and empaths and are having a hard time finding balance in their lives. If you’re tired of managing alone and want to find some peace or clarity in your life, or simply want to feel better emotionally, you’ve come to the right place.
