The right therapeutic “fit” between a patient and their therapist is pivotal in the change process…this has been well researched and established within the field of psychology for many years. At be. Psychological Services, I pride myself on my ability to connect with men on a human-to-human level. YOU are the “expert” of you, while I have the professional experience, education and expertise within the field of mental health. Together our two minds work in unison…working towards optimal mental well-being for YOU!
I am well-versed in the areas of Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), Accelerated Resolution Therapy (ART), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) to name a few. Complimentary phone consultations are available upon request.

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.

Over the years as a psychologist, I have learned that you can be good at working in many areas, but you can only be great at some, so I decided to gather a team of therapists whom I trust and that have unique skill sets and varying personality styles to compliment my own and provide other alternatives for you. My team supports all ages and concerns. Many of us enjoy working with men on ‘what it’s like being a man in this day and age’ stuff, as it’s a different landscape to navigate these days! Please check out my website to see all of us and how we can best assist you.

I am honored to help those desiring meaningful change in their lives – personal mental, emotional and behavioural change is some of the most difficult work one can do and that is why most avoid it. From 27 years of practice and having worked with very challenging situations, I have refined my therapeutic approach to quickly assist with understanding of your symptoms, the real problem and practical strategies to gain relief. Therapy is a process yet a ‘deep dive’ into what troubles you can be achieved within a few sessions! I am determined to assist in the most effective and efficient way!

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.

Chris Graham

My own practice is focussed on working with men and professional pilots. I spent over 20 years as a professional pilot, from air ambulance to airline, and I have developed a strong ability to assess risk.
My training included a sound academic base and focussed on the soft skills of professional counselling such as listening and attending, making sure a client is seen and heard. I continue taking further training, particularly in areas that have evidence of being effective in treating trauma, PTSD and C-PTSD. My approach is client centered, trauma informed and can include the modalities of EMDR, narative therapy, CBT, REBT, parts work (IFS), and somatic elements.
