Hi, my name is Danielle (she/her), and I am so pleased to have you scroll by.

 

I was born in South Africa and now live in Calgary, Alberta. I am a Canadian Certified Counsellor, and hold a master’s degree in Counselling Psychology. I am a member with the Canadian Counselling and Psychotherapy Association (CCPA).  Feel free to take a peek at this page on the CCPA website for more information about my practice regulation: https://www.ccpa-accp.ca/profession-and-regulation/

I believe that vulnerability does not exist without courage, and I am here to help you build and access the tools to unveil that inner strength to help you elicit positive change and growth, and to adaptively navigate through life’s challenges.

My Approach:
I use an eclectic approach in counselling that integrates techniques from Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, Solution Focused Therapy, Systems Theory, Cognitive Processing Therapy, Narrative Therapy, Bowen's Theory, and Emotionally Focused Therapy. My practice and approach was not only grown from education and experience, but also from working with people over the years who have willingly poured their knowledge into me, as well as learning from my clients.

 

Areas of Specialization:

I work with diverse populations, including adolescents, adults and couples, offering support with various mental health challenges. Some of the concerns I focus on include:

  • Depression

  • Anxiety

  • ADHD

  • Trauma and PTSD

  • Self-esteem issues

  • Communication issues

  • Emotional detachment and relational conflict.

In my spare time, I like to work on my art and music, including painting, sketching, songwriting, singing and playing acoustic guitar. I highly value unconditional positive regard, and my aim in counselling is to create a warm environment and safe space for you to engage in self-discovery, and to heal and grow. I believe that each individual is inherently the expert on themselves, and that we are constantly learning new ways to access our potentials and keep growing. I will meet you where you are at and work with you in collaboration to tailor a unique plan to best meet your needs.
