Find a Therapist in Canada

Chad is an award winning therapist with 20 years experience... and doesn't actually enjoy writing in the third person. I'm a bit different than traditional therapists as I often have more smiles than tears in my office, but either way, my hope is to help individuals, couples, and families feel safe enough to share their lives. I find men who are nervous about trying therapy, women who want to understand their husbands better, and those who haven't had the best experience in therapy tend to really like my down to earth style that is influenced by my training in solution focused therapy, CBT, EFT, and DBT.  

It is very easy to get stuck in life. I hope to be able to assist you with discovering and understanding what creates a sense of unease for you and to help you through the demanding process of tackling these obstacles. I chose to specialize in cognitive behaviour (CBT) therapy as I believe that I owe it to you to provide interventions that are rooted in research and have proven effectiveness. To that end, I have obtained credentialling with the Academy of Cognitive and Behavioural Therapies and with Canadian Association for Cognitive and Behavioural Therapies. It might be hard to commit to therapy. After all it requires discussing painful and private issues with a stranger. You can start by checking my website (www.VillageCentreCBT.net) to find more about my practice philosophy, CBT and its applications, and to access self-help materials. You can also request a brief free video or phone consultation to determine if I would be a good fit as your therapist.  

As a Registered Psychotherapist, Joshua Lewis is focused on supporting individuals through a therapeutic process that seeks to restore mental and emotional wellness, provides avenues for deepening one's connection to self and others, while fostering compassionate inquiry, understanding and meaning-making into the challenging experiences that often make up a human life.  

Are you feeling stuck in your relationship? In a safe and non-judgemental environment, we can discuss your issues. With over 30 years experience I have helped many couples and individuals to resolve their issues. Using the Emotionally Focused Therapy model has proven to be very effective. Helping you and your partner to access and express your softer emotions will result in a more emotionally bonded relationship.  

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.  

I know how scary it can be to face our struggles and open up to a new person—I’ve been in therapy myself for many years. It’s not easy work! That's why I’m focused on building trust and staying curious about who you are and how you’re experiencing the process. My hope is that you leave sessions feeling cared for, understood, accepted, and connected with. Clients find that this experience builds self-understanding, a sense of worth, and a growing agency they carry into the rest of their lives. I’m a Registered Psychotherapist (Qualifying) who practices psychodynamic, relational therapy. This approach understands our struggles as stemming from difficulties in relationships, past and present. Maybe you haven’t received the kinds of connections, supports, and understanding you’ve needed and it’s impacted how you relate to yourself and others. Perhaps bad experiences have made it hard to navigate daily life or build new dynamics. You might be navigating loss, abandonment, harm, guilt, or conflict and need support with this. We’re nearly all impacted by cultures of disconnection, over-work, domination, and hyper-individualism. Relational therapy can be a space to notice all of this and experience something new—a more connected and fulfilling inner and outer life. I’m dedicated to practicing from a client-led and trauma-informed perspective that understands the deeply traumatic impacts of white supremacy, colonialism, cishetero-patriarchy, ableism, and other oppressions. I will hold curiosity for how systems, culture, and identity impact your life, relationships, and our work together. But in all of this, we only go as deep and as wide as you want to—I make sure we’re following your pace and attending to what feels most urgent. I won't tell you what healing looks like for you, but I'll be excited to figure that out together.  

What if the way you see yourself isn’t the truth—but a story shaped by past wounds? Our sense of self is shaped by early experiences, especially in relationships. If you grew up feeling unseen, unsafe, or unworthy, those feelings don’t just fade—they shape your choices, beliefs, and relationships. Maybe you struggle with anxiety, depression, people-pleasing, perfectionism, or self-doubt. These patterns didn’t come from nowhere—they were ways your mind and body learned to cope. But they don’t have to define you. Healing is possible. Using a relational, trauma-informed approach rooted in attachment theory, complex PTSD recovery, and memory reconsolidation, I help people rewrite the beliefs that keep them stuck. Therapy isn’t about fixing what’s "wrong"—it’s about understanding and transforming the impact of what’s happened to you. Together, we’ll explore the deeper patterns shaping your life, so you can move forward with clarity, confidence, and self-compassion—not just managing symptoms, but truly healing at the core. You deserve to feel safe, connected, and whole. If this resonates with you, let’s talk. Book a free consultation today.

At Meaningfully Connected Counselling, meaningful connection is at the heart of everything we do. We are a team of compassionate therapists who support individuals feeling overwhelmed, stuck, disconnected, or as though they are nearing a breaking point. Our goal is to help you better understand your inner world and develop a greater sense of clarity, balance, and agency so you can begin to feel that you have real options again. We believe healing begins when every part of you is welcomed with compassion — even the parts that feel anxious, guarded, ashamed, angry, uncertain, or hard to understand. Rather than pushing those parts away, we work alongside you to gently explore them with curiosity and care, helping you develop a deeper and more integrated relationship with yourself. Our approach is grounded in authentic human connection, compassion, and evidence-based therapeutic approaches. We believe lasting healing happens within safe and supportive relationships where you feel seen, heard, and understood. Our therapists draw from a range of modern and effective modalities while remaining deeply attuned to your unique story, pace, and needs. For clients who desire it, we also thoughtfully integrate faith and spirituality into the therapeutic process. We honour the role that faith, meaning, and connection to something greater can play in healing, growth, and restoration. Through the meaningful connection you build with your therapist, you can develop a deeper understanding of your thoughts, emotions, body, relationships, and the many parts that make you who you are. This deeper self-connection can help you show up more fully — for yourself, for others, and for the life you want to create.
