Watras Counselling and Psychotherapy Services
Registered Psychotherapist, RP, MACP, BSc
I work with motivated individuals who are looking to work towards better understanding, dealing with, and changing their lives. Clients of mine often have behaviours, thoughts, feelings, or emotions that are dysfunctional or cause them discomfort, such as feeling anxious, depressed, confused, reactive, or scattered. Many of my clients have difficulty with behaviours they feel they have no control over, such as habits or addictions, aversions, or getting easily frustrated or angry. I help my clients understand why these issues occur and help them create tools and protocols such that they can create the changes they want.

Liz Dean
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, M.S.W., R.S.W
Feeling alone and stuck? Sometimes we find ourselves disconnected, insecure, anxious, angry, sad and exhausted - at ourselves, at the world, at our family and friends. And we don't know what to do about it. It can make us feel utterly alone. I would embrace the opportunity to support you to find a path forward and move more easily and authentically through life. My speciality is working with people with self-criticism and/or low self esteem - this can present as loneliness anxiety, depression, ADHD and struggles in relationships and with life transitions (jobs, relationships, new stages of life).

I focus on approaching your therapy with openness. I want to facilitate you in discovering how you have come to be the person that you are, developing acceptance, and finding ways forward that will lead you to feeling at home in yourself. I believe that we are responsible for our own experience of life, but that we have more freedom than it often feels. If you feel we might be a good fit, I welcome you to reach out for a consultation.

Ivan Pityk
Registered Psychotherapist, MA, RP
My philosophy is that the past builds our being through the experiences we had and the lessons we learned. These experiences help to shape our sense of meaning and personal fulfilment through our journey. Therefore, I believe that it is important to explore the past and see how it shapes our experience in relation to ourselves and others. I incorporate this perspective in my work with clients and help to emphasize the power of choice, explore unmet needs and help to explore important areas for boundary setting.

Melanie Fuller
Registered Psychotherapist, Psychotherapist (Qualifying)
Tired of being pathologized and feeling isolated? You are not alone.
Traumatic experiences are common yet unique to each person. While each person possesses unique resources and skills, trauma responses (fight, flight, freeze, fawn) can throw one off balance from their consistent, preferred way of living.
I am a registered psychotherapist (Q), practicing under the supervision of Christine Contant (RP, CTIC). My counselling and psychotherapy background consists of two years of behavioral counselling for individuals who experience developmental differences and one year (2019-2020) of experience providing supervised evidence-based trauma-informed psychotherapy (DBT, narrative therapy, solution-focused brief therapy, cognitive processing, somatic experiencing) at the Centre for Treatment of Sexual Abuse and Childhood Trauma (CTSACT) from September 2019-to 2020.
Currently, I practice online (private practice) and in-person while I complete my MC graduate thesis on parents' reflections of high-conflict co-parenting before, during and throughout the COVID-19 pandemic with Athabasca University.
