LAURELLE ST. JEAN, REGISTERED PSYCHOLOGIST My passion in counselling is forming a connection where people feel accepted and challenged to grow in new and meaningful ways. It is a privilege to be a part of the brave and vulnerable experience of unpacking struggles and working together to build new and lighter ways forward. I view counselling as an opportunity to help people cope with the normal and extraordinary challenges of life, lessen suffering, and settle more comfortably within the present moment. I hold a Master of Arts in Counselling Psychology and I am a registered psychologist in good standing with the College of Alberta Psychologists. 

I enjoy working with individual adults and teenagers over the age of fifteen with concerns which include anxiety, women’s issues, depression, self-esteem, body image, and relationships. While I have training as a generalist, I have advanced training in the area of trauma. I am skilled at using a variety of therapeutic approaches, including cognitive-behavioral therapy, acceptance and commitment therapy, trauma and body-based therapies, and EMDR. The approach is tailored based on the goals and preferences of the client in order to best fit each individual. All the therapy I do is evidence-based with an emphasis on empowering clients to cultivate their innate strength and lead healthier, more fulfilling lives. ​
