Therapists in Calgary, Alberta AB, Canada CA
Nakasha Ogbonna
Registered Social Worker, RSW
I am a dual province (Ontario & Alberta) registered social worker specializing in mental health. Before entering private practice, I served as the University of Calgary’s Mental Health Consultant where I was the primary on-campus therapeutic support for staff, faculty, and post doctorates. I now work in private practice supporting individuals, couples, families, and groups. I also have specialized training and experience working with first responders and their families in dealing with operational stress injuries. My breadth of experience includes work with patients accessing community public health as well as school aged youth in primary and secondary school divisions.
Life is hard enough. Therapy does not need to be overly stressful. For this reason I take a relaxed approach, infusing light humour while discussing your deepest thoughts and concerns. I aim for your time with me to be one of the best parts of your week, because it is where you know you can be your authentic self with a warm and non-judgemental supporter.
Therapy can work for anyone when there is a strong relationship between the client and therapist. For this reason I prioritize building a strong therapeutic partnership with my clients that is grounded on transparency, empathy, and unconditional support. Think of me as a GPS for your mind. You pick the destination and I’ll show you how to get there.

Lyndley Fehr
Life Coach, B.A. Arts, M.A. Ed, Certified Intuitive Life Coach, NLP and Hypnosis, Certified Sound Wellness Level 1 and 2 Practitioner, Level 3 Reiki Master
Clients that seek me are ready to access their inner workings and get to a level of self-understanding that will be life changing and transformative. Most clients are spiritual or express an interest in learning how to balance out their chakras which is where we begin our journey of clearing any generational trauma, inner-child work, and any emotions being trapped and expressed as physical pain.
I’m an Intuitive Life Coach combining Reiki and Sound Healing in client sessions. I am able to connect to client energy in a safely held container allowing them to release any heavy stresses and empower them to understand it, giving tools for self-guided treatments in the future. My goal is to be the last therapist they need to see.
Having been a PTSD Trauma Survivor, an Indigo Child, an Empathic, Highly Sensitive and Emotional being, I understand what feels like having the weight of the world press down on you. I enjoy connecting and teaching the tools that I know and efficiently share and teach them with you so that you can live your best life!

Shannon Loewen
Psychologist, M.Sc. Counselling Psychology
What do you do when you are struggling or feeling lost and overwhelmed? How do you support yourself? For me, well-being comes from knowing that no matter what life throws at you, you can courageously and compassionately face it and give yourself what you need to get through it. It comes from knowing you have the strength and ability to cope with any uncertainty. When we know how to support ourselves, we can face and get through anything.
