A Note From Lyndsay

I am a Registered Psychologist working with clients all over Alberta. I believe strongly that all individuals have the power to create change in their lives. Everybody can benefit from counselling services; we all have something about our lives we would like to be different. Often, talking it out and working with someone outside of our social network can give new insight and perspective. I work from a person-centered approach: all people bring a unique set of skills that can be emphasized and encouraged. I find a team approach where clients are able to take the lead offers the most positive outcomes in counselling.

For several years, I have spent my time working with children, teens, adults and families in a number of community settings. For many of those years, I have spent my time studying and practicing animal-assisted therapy. While not an appropriate approach for everyone, counselling with animals can provide an alternative to traditional talk therapy.

I also provide supervision to provisional psychologists in the areas mentioned above. If you interested in learning more about clinical supervision click here.

I won't be working with animal-assisted therapy or pet loss support for the foreseeable future. Thank you for your understanding.
