Kristin Matthews

As a Registered Psychologist and born-and-raised Calgarian, I am passionate about helping adults and teens experience meaningful, lasting change. I specialize in addressing many concerns including: depression, anxiety, life transitions, relationship issues, self-esteem, stress and burnout, trauma/PTSD, work/school-related issues, and more. I have extensive experience counselling Alberta professionals including healthcare members such as physicians and nurses, educators, energy sector professionals, to name a few. I believe that meaningful change is best fostered when the therapy process is collaborative and client-centered. I practice from evidence-based approaches including solution-focused therapy, cognitive-behavioural therapy, and emotion-focused therapy. I also have training and experience providing prolonged exposure therapy to treat trauma. I know that people seek counselling for reasons that are not always easy to talk about. This is why I strive to create a safe and authentic space to explore the reasons most important to you. I understand that finding a counsellor who is a good fit is critical to your counselling experience so let's connect to see if we are a good fit.
