Therapists in Alberta

Dylan Oosterveld

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.

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.

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.

At KM Counselling, you will work with psychologists who custom build the counselling process to best suit your needs.
