Hello! My name is Alisha, I’m a Canadian Certified Counsellor living in southern Alberta. My professional experience includes individual and couples counselling, as well as supporting parents of children with complex needs. I have worked with non-profit organizations for the past 8 years in Calgary and Airdrie, Alberta, which has shaped my passion for supporting others and given me a wide range of professional experience.
I was drawn to the field of psychology from a young age as I experienced challenges in my own life, and now am fortunate to get to use my knowledge and experiences to help people navigate their own journeys. Whether you are new to counselling or have accessed similar services before, if you are struggling with something specific or want to explore areas for development, or if you just want to learn more about therapy or yourself, I would love to connect and see if I can help you reach your goals.

I strive to create a safe space for my clients to explore their concerns with compassion and acceptance.
