Meredith Dow
Counsellor/Therapist, MA, CPC
If you're feeling overwhelmed, confused by your closest relationships, or affected by difficult experiences from your past, you don't have to keep pushing through all on your own.
Perhaps you don't recognise the person you've become. Or maybe the ways you've coped before just aren't working any more.
That's why I'm here; I'd be honoured to come alongside you and create the space to process the challenges you're facing, together.

Claire Benade
Registered Social Worker, MSW, RSW
I'm so glad you are here! I know how hard taking the first step in your mental health can be, but you are one step closer to getting back to your best self. I am passionate about the work I do, and feel that building rapport with clients allows for the most growth and success. I strive to ensure that my clients feel they are heard, understood and feel they are in a non-judgemental space to express all their thoughts and feelings.
I am currently accepting new clients seeking individual therapy and specialize in children and adolescents, perinatal mental health and parent support and coaching. Therapy is a process of growth and self-discovery, and my job is simply to help you along this journey by guiding you, empowering you, and offering you direction and my own expertise. Whatever your journey may be, I am here for you!
Located rurally? I can still help! While I am located in Airdrie, AB I accept clients from across Alberta via virtual sessions.

Off the Beaten Path Psychology and Wellness
Psychologist, Registered Psychologist
At Off the Beaten Path, we know that individual struggles don't exist in a vacuum. They're connected to the whole family system. That's why we work differently, where you might come to us for support with burnout or people-pleasing, while your teenager sees one of our therapists for identity questions or wellness. We coordinate, listen, and we often step outside of traditional office into nature because that's where some of the best conversations can happen, including the breakthroughs that happen while in movement. Using evidence-based approaches like EMDR and attachment-focused work, we help families actually understand each other. If you're looking for therapy that feels real, genuine, and gets real results, please connect.
