In my practice, I’ve had the privilege of working with a wide range of men from top performers and working professionals and leaders, to post-secondary students, artists and sensitive souls facing a variety of life’s challenges. I have a particular empathy for the unique challenges and pressures that many men face these days. As a counselling psychologist, I can help you recognize any unhealthy patterns/dynamics that might not be serving you, and help you learn ways of addressing these to support greater wellbeing and satisfaction in your life.

KM Counselling Inc.
KM Counselling Inc.
A Tailor-Made Therapy Process Just for You
KM Counselling is a NW Calgary psychology practice founded on the idea that meaningful change is best fostered when the therapy process is uniquely tailored to your needs. We know that many people seek out support for reasons that are not always easy to talk about, which is why finding the right therapy fit is critical. You may have tried counselling in the past and felt that the process was too rigid or fixated on the therapist’s agenda, leaving you feeling frustrated and stuck. At KM Counselling, you will work with psychologists who custom build the counselling process to best suit your needs.
Note: HeadsUpGuys only recommends therapists who meet our qualification standards.

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.

Overwhelmed or burned out, struggling to focus or decompress? It’s hard to be at our best through times of stress and personal hardship. With over 10 years of clinical practice, I will help you establish lasting wellness so you can stay on top of what really matters – your interests, responsibilities, and relationships. Let’s make sense of your concerns, find a clear way forward, and get you back on track.
My background is in Occupational Therapy and Psychology, as well as extreme sports coaching. Occupational Therapy is a “function-focused” discipline that targets real-world success with mind-body principles and practical strategies. I also lead a clinical team specialized in mental health and function and mentor developing therapists.

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!

Men today often encounter many tragic messages of self-blame. Even other therapists can fall into the trap of using negative or shaming language such as the “toxic masculinity” narrative. I abhor and avoid such messages. In contrast, I work from a strengths-based approach that prioritizes dignity and unconditional positive regard. I provide support for many concerns such as anxiety, depression, self-esteem, grief, relationship breakdown and divorce, domestic abuse victimization, and more. I work primarily using CBT, ACT, and person-centred modalities.

I get that talking about what’s going on isn’t always easy, especially if you’re used to handling things yourself. I offer a down to earth, no pressure space where we focus on what matters most to you. No lectures or jargon just honest conversation, humour and practical tools that actually help.

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.

I have experience working with children, youth, and adults, in both individual and couple settings. I believe in tailoring my counselling sessions to meet the unique and individualized needs of each client, specifically with a holistic approach by taking into consideration sociocultural factors that may be impacting your well-being. My treatment approach typically includes Person-Centered Therapy, Feminist Therapy, Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), and Strengths-Based Therapy. My approach encourages you to engage in continuous self-reflection and self-exploration, specifically by having you reflect on your core values and seeing if it aligns with your daily actions and habits. I am dedicated to creating a supportive environment.
