Welcome to Clear Minds Psychology

Compassionate, evidence-based therapy for adults and seniors in Calgary

Life can feel overwhelming at times. You may be facing stress at work or at home. Perhaps you are adjusting to a major life change or coping with the loss of a loved one. You may also be struggling with persistent anxiety or depression. While support from friends and family can help, there are times when it may not be enough. In these moments, reaching out to a professional therapist in Calgary can be the most effective step forward.

At Clear Minds Psychology in Calgary, I believe every person has the innate ability to grow, heal, and overcome life’s challenges. Therapy provides a space to explore difficult emotions, develop effective coping strategies, and build a deeper understanding of yourself.
