Hello! I have had the pleasure of working and volunteering in the field of mental health since 2006.

As a helping professional, I approach counselling from a Person Centered and Strength Based perspective, with a Cognitive Behavioral Therapy foundation, while also bringing in other approaches including, but not limited to, Narrative Therapy, Solution Focused Therapy, Art based activities, EMDR, and trauma informed practices.

The counselling process is a journey that I feel honored to be part of with all my clients. This journey can be challenging at times so my goal is to create a safe, honest, trusting, and supportive environment where one can experience the sense of being seen and heard.

Mental health is important for everyone, so in my downtime I enjoy engaging my creative side through arts and crafts, and attending dance classes and violin lessons. I have a dog who keeps me on my toes, and I enjoy taking her for walks with my significant other.

I look forward to having the opportunity to meet and work with you.

Hello! My name is Landon Gross, and I am a Registered Provisional Psychologist with the College of Alberta Psychologists. I hold a Bachelor of Science in Psychology and a Master of Education in Counselling Psychology from the University of Lethbridge.

As an undergraduate, I was a member of the Pronghorns Men’s Hockey Team, where I was an Academic All-Canadian. My journey from athlete to provisional psychologist has taught me that performance and well-being go hand in hand. During graduate studies, I focused my research on life skills and mental health in sport, where I developed an understanding of what’s important for success in life and sport. Life is filled with difficulties that require support in finding a path forward.

I believe that while our past experiences and relationships shape who we are, we all have the capacity to create growth and meaningful change. I strive to collaborate with you to develop a shared understanding of core issues and make a difference from the get-go, drawing from therapeutic approaches like Person-Centered, Existential, and Psychodynamic theories. These foundations, complemented by Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and insights from evolutionary psychology and neuroscience, help create lasting positive change.

Away from the office, you’ll find me exploring human stories through autobiographies and memoirs, staying active with sports and fitness, walking my dog, or chasing after my twins. I’m also an avid podcast listener, especially enjoying comedy to keep things light and health/psychology topics to satisfy my love of learning.

Reaching out for counselling help can be one of the terrifying things a person can do. Sharing the most intimate and personal details of your life with a stranger can also be even more terrifying. I’m hopeful that by learning about me, you might feel more comfortable in taking those first big steps.

I have worked in the helping field since the age of 14, volunteering as a candy striper with the hospital. My mom wanted me to be a nurse, but I wanted help in a different way.

I completed my Bachelor’s degree in Social Work in 1993 and my Master’s degree in Counselling Psychology in 2012. I completed further supervision and obtained my designation as a Registered Clinical Social Worker.

I am trained in a number of counselling strategies, including Cognitive Behaviour Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behaviour Therapy (DBT) and Mindfulness skills, which I use to help people manage depression, anxiety and fear, especially when coming to counselling for the first time.

Working with people who have experienced trauma is my passion and area of expertise. I am trained in several counselling strategies including Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), Prolonged Exposure Therapy, Cognitive Processing Therapy (CPT) and Accelerated Resolution Therapy (ART).

In my spare time, I enjoy camping in the BC mountains with my spouse and our dogs. I have two grandsons who remind me to focus on the simple things in life and have fun. I also have a slight addiction to sparkly things and the colour purple. In coming for counselling, I hope to help you address the stressors you face. I consider it an honour to be a part of your life journey and hope that together, we can make it a positive experience with good outcomes for you.

Hello, I am Vicki Juneau and I am a Registered Psychologist with a graduate degree from the University of Victoria. I have been in the mental health-counselling profession for 25 years with experience in working with a range of mental health concerns such as depression, anxiety, mood disorders, addictions, eating disorders, grief and loss, in addition to, trauma related stress and PTSD. When working with clients I utilize a strength-based person-centred approach, while incorporating a neurobiological and attachment focused framework. It is important to me that clients feel a sense of comfort and trust and the “just right” amount of challenge when working to meet their goals. I believe it is important to respond to emotional stress from a mind-body perspective to achieve personal well-being and potential.

I have extensive experience working with issues related to trauma (single incident and developmental), abuse and neglect. I am trained in advanced EMDR practices, attachment focused therapies and Mindful Based Cognitive Therapy. When working with couples, I utilize The Gottman Method to Couples Therapy, and The Emotionally Focused Therapy in understanding relationships and relational conflict.

I am a 200hr certified yoga teacher in Integrative Yoga Therapy. This training assists me in facilitating strategies that incorporate mindful movement and postural awareness with the ability to sooth and comfort internal distress. In partnership together, we will aim to discover solutions to help restore your emotional and mental balance.

Since 2007, I have been helping people navigate difficult life situations and mental health symptoms, including anger, anxiety, bereavement, childhood and family of origin concerns, depression, identity concerns, marital/relationship distress, men’s and dad’s issues, parenting, self-esteem, separation/divorce, stress, suicidal ideation, and trauma.

My approach to counselling is a blend of several modalities, including, Person-Centered Therapy, Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy, Solution-Focused Therapy, Gottman Couples Therapy (Levels 1 and 2), Family-Systems Therapy, Attachment-Based Eye-Movement Desensitization Reprocessing (EMDR), and Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT).

I struggled with mental health during my childhood, teen, and young adult years. Luckily, I had several positive role models to support and guide me towards finding myself and feeling positive emotions including hopefulness and joy. My journey has inspired me to help others who are struggling with mental health and finding their purpose.

Hi! I have been a part of the helping profession since 2008, and love encouraging people to become the best they can be. I strive to create a safe and supportive environment for individuals to learn and grow, and make progress on the changes they wish to see in their lives.

I believe the counselling relationship should be collaborative; I’ll encourage you to keep doing the things that are working, but I’ll also give you a few more skills to help you overcome your struggles.

In my spare time I enjoy spending time with by husband and dog, mountain biking, hiking, or just relaxing on the couch watching Netflix! I also love to dance, something I did for many years growing up; dance is one of those activities that “makes my heart happy”.

I look forward to meeting with you to help you find or reconnect with those things that make your heart happy.

Hello, I’m Mike! I’m a Canadian Certified Counsellor and a member of the Canadian Counselling and Psychotherapy Association. I hold a Bachelor of Health Sciences (Addiction Counselling) and a Master of Counselling in Applied Psychology (Counselling Psychology), both from the University of Lethbridge.

For the past eight years, I’ve worked in both clinical and academic settings focused on addiction and mental health. My experience includes working as an Addiction Counsellor with Recovery Alberta (formerly Alberta Health Services), and teaching in the Addiction Counselling Program at the University of Lethbridge as a sessional lecturer.

In addition to my formal education, I’ve completed training in Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), the Gottman Method for Couples Therapy (Levels 1 & 2), and I’m currently a Certified Sex Addiction Therapist (Candidate).

My counselling approach is client-centered and trauma-informed, with a focus on how early developmental experiences and attachment patterns influence how we think, feel, and relate to others. I believe that therapy should be a collaborative process—one that helps you better understand your experiences and supports you in making meaningful, lasting changes. I draw from a variety of therapeutic methods, including Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy (CBT), mindfulness, EMDR, and psychoeducation.

Counselling is a space for reflection, growth, and healing. My goal is to provide a supportive, inclusive environment where you feel safe, heard, and empowered to move forward with clarity and confidence.

I have experience working with individuals, couples, families, addiction and compulsive behaviours, anxiety, ADHD, and grief and loss.

Hello, my name is Suzanne.

Finding the right therapist is like finding the right pair of shoes…one size doesn’t fit all. When you find the right fit you feel comfortable, sturdy, strong and supported. You know they will aid you on your journey.

My therapeutic style is very organic and client centred. I will provide a safe space for your story to be heard; and I will offer perspective and guidance in order to help you to heal, grow and evolve into the best version of yourself. I truly believe that everyone has all of the answers they need within them. Sometimes people cannot see, feel, hear or realize what is right in front of them. I will help you to see and feel things more clearly by asking different questions, important ones. Together we can change the patterns of your past that are holding you back. When we know and understand things from a different perspective, it enables us to perceive things in a different light and become unstuck.

I will help empower you to achieve happiness, self love, mental/emotional/physical/spiritual awareness and trust in yourself.

In my career, I have worn many different hats. I have worked for Child Protection Services in an array of towns, cities and First Nations communities.

I have also worked for Woods Homes here in Lethbridge connecting families and supporting homeless youth. I spent 6 years as a therapist on both the children’s and adult mental health teams in Lethbridge and Taber.

I also have several years of experience working for a Southern Alberta adoption agency doing birth parent counselling, adoption home assessments and placements. I have made my home in private practice at Associates Counselling Services since 2006.

I am a mother of two school aged children and I live an active and healthy lifestyle.

Welcome and thank you for taking the time to view the Associates Counselling website! I am a Registered Psychologist whose primary interest is peak performance, whether that be in sport, performance, business or life. I firmly believe that “every path has its puddle” and that it is normal to encounter challenges and difficulties as we attempt to live our best lives possible. What we learn from our challenges and how we move forward as a result of these challenges is key to my approach to working with clients. As an unbiased and collaborative practitioner, I use therapeutic techniques primarily from cognitive behavioural and solution focused therapies to help clients “navigate the waters” of their puddles.

I have two grown children who continue to keep my life interesting as they “navigate their waters”. I have been a member of the Runners Soul Marathon Club for a number of years. I love to trail run in the coulees and spend time walking with my husband and Golden Retrievers.

Hello! My name is Dylan, I am a Registered Psychologist with the College of Alberta Psychologists and have been working and volunteering in the field of mental health since 2017.

I obtained a Bachelor of Arts (kinesiology) and Science (psychology) from the University of Lethbridge, while also playing on the varsity Pronghorns hockey team for five seasons. I rounded out my post-secondary education with a Master of Arts in Counselling Psychology from Yorkville University.

I attempt to provide an individually tailored, evidence-based experience. I use person-centered and cognitive behavioural approaches, supplemented with evolutionary, neuropsychological and mindfulness based perspectives. I believe a strong and healthy therapeutic relationship between myself and my clients is essential. My goal as a therapist is to create a safe and empathic space for my clients in which they feel accepted, valued, supported, and empowered

I also have the pleasure of bringing my dog Luna (Greater Swiss Mountain Dog) to work with me most days. She is an incredibly warm and gentle animal 😊 However, I apologize in advance if you leave with more dog hair than you arrived with.

In taking care of my own mental health, I enjoy participating in and watching sport (mostly hockey), listening to music (always), walking/biking with my family, watching movies and reading (sci-fi/fantasy), knitting, gardening, stargazing, observing nature, and playing video and board games.
