I am a Registered Provisional Psychologist. My academic credentials include a Bachelor of Arts Degree in Psychology (Honours) from Memorial University of Newfoundland in 2009 and Master of Education in Counselling Psychology from the University of Lethbridge in 2011.

Over the past 10 years, I have worked and volunteered in a variety of settings: therapeutic schools (Calgary and Lethbridge), non-for-profit and private counselling agencies. For several years, I was employed by the Lethbridge emergency women’s shelter, providing services to children, teenagers and families who were escaping violence and or/ poverty.

Overall, my counselling approach can be described as strengths-based, person-centered and trauma-informed. My practice is also influenced by Attachment Theory and Bruce Perry’s Neurosequential Model of Therapeutics. I integrate strategies from therapies such as Trauma-Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Play and Expressive Arts and EMDR to assist my clients in achieving growth and positive change.
In my spare time I am kept (very!) busy with my three young sons, husband and dog, Sadie. We love to sing, swim and spend time together in nature exploring and adventuring.
I will be offering appointments on Monday and Thursday evenings and Friday afternoons. The majority of my appointments will be for children/adolescents and limited appointments for adult clients.

My name is Donna Maier. I am a Master's level registered social worker with a BSW and a MSW.  I have worked as a social worker in Southern Alberta for 23 years in the human services field and started counselling in January 2022.  In my counselling role I have had the privilege to work with teenagers and adults who have experienced trauma, anxiety, depression, loss and grief, life transitions, relationship challenges, crisis situations, and social and structural barriers.  As a parent of a child with Type 1 Diabetes, I understand and empathize with the challenges and rewards of parenting a child with a chronic illness and welcome supporting people in this area.  

In my role I strive to establish authentic relationships by being transparent, sincere, and reliable. I respect people’s own wisdom, knowledge, and experience and believe that each one of us has innate strengths and abilities and the capacity for change. Using an integrative, trauma informed counselling approach, I believe we can work together to honor where you are at, set goals to help you make the changes that you desire in a timely manner, and celebrate the smallest of successes along the way.

My name is Jack Lilja. I enjoy working with people who are motivated to change. Making the decision to connect with a therapist is the most important first step in creating change. Working together, my goal is to help individuals of all ages, couples and families to overcome the obstacles that often block our ability to utilize the strengths that we all possess. You bring the expert knowledge of your own life into the therapeutic relationship and together we will use that knowledge to create your desired lived experiences for you and your family. I have a special interest in working with the people who are dedicated to helping others in need (First Responders, child protection workers, teachers) while often neglecting their own needs and the effects that can have on their own lives (PTSD, depression, anxiety, suicidality, relationship issues).
I am a Registered Psychologist, Canadian Certified Counsellor – Supervisor, and an EMDR Therapist. I work from a Solution-Focused, Strengths based perspective as well as a Narrative Therapy framework. Based on the therapy goals we will create together, I will utilize techniques from CBT, EMDR, Expressive Arts/Play and Family Systems Therapy to help you achieve your goals. I enjoy working with children, adolescents, and families depending on presenting issues. I am also available to complete Psycho-educational assessments (for school, government funding, or employment) and Supervision for undergraduate and graduate students or those requiring supervised hours for their CCC designation with Canadian Counselling and Psychotherapy Association.
I am currently accepting daytime, evening and weekend appointments either via face-to-face or Zoom.
