Daniel Klassen
Psychologist, Provisional, (P7619) with CAP in Alberta & Registered Clinical Counsellor (RCC 19147) with BCACC, for elsewhere in Canada
Do you find yourself getting angry when you didn’t intend to? Does a careless remark leave you feeling small and insignificant? What lies at the root of these emotional reactions and behaviors? When left unaddressed, overwhelming emotions and unhelpful thought and behavioural patterns can begin to erode the life you've worked so hard to build. These struggles are not random—they have causes. And with the right guidance, they can be understood, addressed, and released, allowing you to step into the life you truly deserve.
Daniel works with individuals, couples, and families to create immediate stability and a sense of grounding. From this steady foundation, clients can begin to clearly see the challenges they face. Whether you're living with anxiety, anger, relationship difficulties, ADHD, depression, addiction, trauma, PTSD, or personality disorders, there is a way out of the confusion and suffering. There is a place within you where clarity, peace, and direction can take root—a space from which you can begin to build the life you know should have been yours.
Daniel’s goal is to help you make sense of your thoughts, emotions, and physical sensations—bringing clarity to the chaos and restoring a sense of capability over your life. He draws from a range of evidence-based therapies—including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Internal Family Systems (IFS), Emotion Focused Therapy (EFT), Somatic Experiencing, and more—to create a personalized, integrative treatment plan tailored to your unique needs and experiences.
To learn more about Daniel’s therapeutic approach, credentials, and how to begin your healing journey, please visit fhcts.ca. You’re also invited to schedule a free 20-minute consultation to see how working with Daniel can support you in reclaiming your life.

Manisha Grewal
Counsellor/Therapist, BA (Hons), MA, Registered Psychotherapist (Qualifying)
Do you tend to replay past events in your mind over and over, and spiral into worries about the future? Do you struggle with boundaries, people-pleasing, or relationships, causing you to "overgive" to others while abandoning your own needs? Many people describe feeling like they’re moving through life on autopilot — weighed down by overthinking, low mood, or the pressure to keep everyone else happy. You might notice people-pleasing tendencies, difficulty maintaining boundaries, or a pattern of overgiving that leaves you drained, ungrounded, and disconnected from yourself. ____________ Here, you’ll find a warm, calm space where your feelings are validated and your voice genuinely matters. Together, we’ll engage in meaningful, deep processing work, explore what's fuelling your distress, and gently uncover the deeper experiences and patterns shaping your emotional world. Alongside this, we’ll build practical tools to regulate your nervous system and ease your symptoms in the present, helping you reconnect with a more empowered, resilient, and self-aware version of yourself. I bring the richness of three cultures, four languages, and the lived experience of being both a first- and third-generation immigrant. My background in the medical field also allows me to integrate physiological and psychological insight. These parts of who I am allow me to deeply empathize with the immigrant journey across generations, as well as the ways culture, family expectations, and identity can shape mental health. No matter your background or story, I aim to meet you with genuine understanding, respect, and compassion. I am a proud ally to LGBTQIA2S+ and BIPOC communities and offer inclusive, compassionate care for all backgrounds and lived experiences. If what I’ve shared resonates, we may be a good fit. If you're curious about working together, let's start with a free, no-pressure 30-min video consultation, where we can connect and chat in a calm, relaxed space.

Birgit Schreiber Dr
Psychologist, PhD and MA in Psychology
I deeply enjoy offering psychotherapy because it provides a powerful and accessible medium, where we can share and uncover, allowing me to assist people to live a meaningful and fulfilling life with with joy, resilience and growth. It’s an incredible privilege to create a safe and compassionate space where someone feels seen, heard and understood, often for the first time. Being part of a journey where individuals uncover their inner strengths, navigate challenges and gain a deeper understanding of themselves, reduce their symptoms and address problems is profoundly rewarding. I have 25 years of experience in psychotherapy (with PhD) and my approach is built on gentleness, openness, acceptance and curiosity, and together we find ways to disentangle, understand, manage, and change unhelpful patterns, overwhelming feelings, challenging conditions, or past experiences that can hold us entrapped. I recommend an initial consultation to get to know each other. I pursue a multimodal therapy approach and have extensive knowledge in dealing with psychological, social, relational, family and professional problems. My specialisations include, among others:
• Stress management, coping strategies and burnout prevention
• Reactions to any stress, including relational, social, familial, personal and professional
• Anxiety disorders and related symptoms
• Depressions and related challenges around mood
• Challenges in professional life, especially during career changes and in leadership positions
• Adjustment disorders, losses, separation, trauma and other life changes
• Problems in interpersonal relationships, partner and family challenges
I prefer to work in an active and collaborative way. Together we find ways to understand and change some aspects in your life, in sustainable ways. Please feel free to reach out and write to me with any questions you may have. I look forward to hearing from you.

Sagewood Counselling & Consultancy

I aim to create a non-judgemental, comfortable, yet somewhat challenging therapeutic space where you feel supported to explore places you feel 'stuck' and affirmed in letting go of 'old' thoughts, feelings and behaviours that no longer serve you.
Together we will identify and build upon your strengths & resources, and discover which approaches and coping strategies will be most effective to help you heal past wounds, reach your personal goals and create a more balanced and joyful life.

Bill Arbuckle
Therapist, MCP, RCC
You've been managing. Keeping it together. Showing up for everyone who needs you, handling what needs to be handled, and quietly wondering why it still feels like something is missing or wrong.
Maybe you've survived something hard. Maybe you can't quite name what's weighing on you, but you feel it. Maybe life looks fine from the outside, and that almost makes it harder to explain.
Whatever happened to you, something covered the authentic you. Let's find it.
I want to be someone you don't have to perform for. Somewhere you can set down whatever you've been carrying, fall apart if you need to, and know that nobody here will judge you for it. Just someone who genuinely listens, cares, and helps you start asking: what do I actually want now?
Whether we meet online or in person, the experience is the same. The same care, the same presence, the same work.
