I have experience working with children, youth, and adults, in both individual and couple settings.

My treatment approach typically includes Person-Centered Therapy, Feminist Therapy, Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), and Strengths-Based 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!

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.

Paramount Psychology and Counselling

Grande Prairie, Alberta

Paramount Psychology and Counselling

Number of Therapists: 7
Offers:  Remote Therapy, Individual Therapy, Group Therapy

At Paramount Psychology & Counselling, our team of experienced psychologists, counsellors, and social workers help men deal with the pressures that often go unspoken—stress, anger, relationship struggles, burnout, isolation, and the weight of feeling like you have to handle everything on your own.

Many men were never taught how to talk about what they’re going through, and therapy can feel unfamiliar or uncomfortable at first. Our approach is straightforward, respectful, and practical. We focus on real conversations, clear strategies, and skills you can actually use to improve your relationships, manage stress, and feel more in control of your life.

We also offer 15-min free consults so you can get a feel for the therapist, no pressure.
