Shari Derksen
Psychologist, R. Psych.
Connection and sexual expression are key to our existence as humans. I support clients in releasing shame, fears, patterns, and blockages that get in the way of their relationships, intimacy, and sexual expression in a non-judging environment that is LGBTQ and polyamory/LS Lifestyle/kink affirming. Find your voice in relationships and freedom in sexual expression. Create the life that you want.

Carl Conradi
Counsellor/Therapist, CCC, MSc, MBA
My name is Carl Conradi, and I’m a Canadian Certified Counsellor (CCC) based in Calgary, Alberta, Canada. I’m an integratively-trained counsellor, which means that I draw upon three different therapeutic approaches – existential, cognitive-behavioural (CBT), and psychodynamic – to help support processes that are warm, exploratory, philosophical, and totally unique to each client.
My particular approach to counselling is highly relational and non-pathologising. I believe that all psychological experiences are instructive – even those that feel unbearable – and that within the context of the bond that you and I will create together, you’ll be invited to explore new ways of thinking, feeling, and being in the world.
I work with adult and adolescent individuals who are experiencing a wide array of psychological challenges, including (but not limited to): attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), anxiety, depression, loneliness, men’s issues, problematic anger, obsessive-compulsiveness (OCD), post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), relationship difficulties, and/or work-related stress. I’m also very skilled at working alongside folks who are navigating major life changes, such as: bereavement, diagnosis, divorce, job insecurity or loss, etc.
I’m a passionate advocate of mental wellbeing within the LGBTQIA+, veteran and first responder, and consensually non-monogamous communities.

Laura Romero
Psychologist, MC, R.Psych
What has become clearer to me over the years is that we all have the ability to make changes in our lives - to move us in the direction we wish to go - but sometimes it can be difficult to know or understand the steps we need to take to get there. To create the changes we want to see and experience, we need to commit to doing the work which includes opening ourselves up to the possibility of shifting our mindset, like looking into a kaleidoscope. The first look into a kaleidoscope shows an intricate and layered world of colours and shapes, and with a twist of the mechanism, a brand new picture is created, bringing with it the prospect of new possibilities.

Chris Graham
Psychologist, Registered Provisional Psychologist
I believe that meaningful connections are central to our wellbeing and that therapy offers a safer space for exploring and creating such relationships. I believe that such connections can help in embedding wellbeing in our lives and provide the support we need to overcome our struggles. I have experience working with folks facing a number of struggles and experiences, including anxiety, depression, trauma, people of diverse abilities, sex and sexuality, trans and gender diverse care, and intersections between these identities and experiences.
I believe that a healthy connection is a very important part of an effective therapeutic relationship. Book your free 20 minute meet & greet today to see if I am the right fit for you.

Josh Dempsey, Empowered Life Counselling
Counsellor/Therapist, RTC
I believe in true connection with my clients, and I use an approach that is centered on relationship. My intention is to be a compassionate space for my clients to feel safe, seen, and heard, without judgement. To have them feel supported, reassured, and encouraged, and sometimes, literally cheered on. Our sessions will look to build confidence, self-awareness, and the ability to enrich the relationships within their lives.
I invite you to book a complimentary 15 minute consultation to discuss whether or not I can be of assistance to you in the situation you find yourself in.

Forouz Salari
Registered Social Worker, MA, MSW, RSW
I am a white-passing, Middle-Eastern, bisexual, cis-gender, neurotypical woman and a first-generation immigrant and settler (who came to Canada as a refugee, during childhood).
I’ve also lived through experiences of trauma, displacement, mental illness, divorce, chronic illness and chronic pain.
So, I know what it’s like to feel lost, confused, doubtful, overwhelmed, frustrated, misunderstood, lonely, exhausted, and just not good enough! I know the effort and energy it takes to step into and embrace a journey of self-discovery, healing and growth, not knowing where it might lead. I also know how incredibly transformative it can be!
That must be why you're here too - ready and looking for something in your life to change for the better. I'm here to help!

Jayne Batten
Counsellor/Therapist, MSc, CT, RPC, MPCC
It takes courage to ask for help. I am aware of the enormous amount of pain people carry every day, everywhere and I feel compelled to reach out and help them tap into a more meaningful life, to teach them they have value, to help them gain an increased sense of control over their own life, to help them recognize their resilience and improve the quality of their relationships. We are all in this together.
