This latest blog post by ecstatic dance enthusiast and YEG Family Counselling clinician, Janelle Cooper (CCC), is all about one of our favourite topics: BOUNDARIES!

In it, Janelle tells us all about "hasslers"--you know, the folks who make you feel like you're walking on eggshells around them--and some options to consider if you find yourself in a personal relationship with one. Asserting boundaries with folks who are content to cross them can be difficult, but Janelle assures us all that there are different levels of contact you can negotiate to protect your own peace and well-being.

Read the full blog (link in bio!) and if you're interested in working with Janelle you can read more about them and their practice at yegfamilycounselling.com/about/janelle-cooper You can even complete your Online Intake while you're at it!

Meet one of YEG Family Counselling's newest Mental Health Therapy Interns, Heidi Gelinas! 🎉

A self-described introvert, Heidi loves gardening and propagating plants indoors. Something she learned recently is that many self-pollinating plants produce more fruit when near other plants like them🌱 This fact appeals to her because she feels like people are kind of the same way 😜

Despite just entering the world of counselling, Heidi has been in the mental health field for 5 years. Prior to going to school for counselling, she worked as a nurse on both child/adolescent and adult psychiatry units. This means Heidi has considerable experience working with children with behavioral concerns and family dynamics. She also just really enjoys working with folks who just want to improve parts of their life.

And what's even better? Heidi's sessions are part of our Affordable Counselling Program with sessions starting at $110/hour.

If Heidi seems like someone you might connect with, check out her bio on our website (link in bio) and book your intake with us today!

Meet one of YEG Family Counselling's newest Mental Health Therapy Interns, Trinity Moore! 🙌

Trinity has a background in competitive hip hop dance 👯 Despite transitioning away from the competitive scene, she still loves to use dance and music as a way to keep her body active and her ADHD brain happy and engaged.

You know what else Trinity loves (aside from her 🐱Rocky and a Timmy's iced coffee)? Pokémon! She can often be found playing the games for some lower energy self-care in her downtime.

Before making her way to YEG Family Counselling, Trinity worked as an Educational Assistant and Therapeutic Assistant at various elementary schools in Edmonton. Throughout this time she worked with children and youth in multidisciplinary team settings which helped her develop strong skills in behavioural support, rapport building, emotional co-regulation, and collaborative practice.

Now, she especially loves working with neurodiverse teens, individuals navigating life transitions, folks navigating anxiety or perfectionism, as well as athletes and performers.

And the best part? Trinity's sessions are part of our Affordable Counselling Program with sessions starting at $110/hour.

In this month's blog post from YEG Family Counselling clinician, Corey Anderson (CSAT), we take a deeper look at s*x addiction.

For some people, s*xual behaviour can start to feel less like a choice and more like a cycle. In his clinical work, Corey uses s*x addiction as an umbrella term for these patterns. While many people engage in s*xual behaviours in ways that feel healthy, consensual, and aligned with their values, concerns can arise when the behaviour starts to feel compulsive, secretive, distressing, or begins to create problems in other aspects of one's life.

Read the full blog for more insights into when po*******hy use--or other s*xual behaviours--become a problem and how therapy can help. Link in bio!

Does Corey sound like a therapist you'd like to work with? Visit yegfamilycounselling.com to read more about his practice and complete our Online Intake today!

Meet YEG Family Counselling's newest clinician--Canadian Certified Counsellor, Miranda Dolphin 🐬

You might not know this by looking at her, but Miranda is a clown (complimentary) 🤡 She is an active member in the improv and clowning community in Edmonton and can often be found in class, on stage, volunteering, or running a clown jam of her own. She loves to take any chance she can to play and have a good laugh!

This is an energy she also brings into her therapeutic practice. In session, she strives to make clients feel safe, heard, and gently challenged when appropriate, while also holding space for joy and laughter. Miranda loves working with fellow fat folks navigating their relationships to their bodies and the systemic harm that comes with being in a large body. She also specializes in eating disorders, neurodivergence, perfectionism, people pleasing, and anxiety.

Oh ya, and she can hold a plank for two-and-a-half minutes 💪

Miranda's first day with us is Friday, July 10th. If she sounds like someone you would like to work with, you can complete our Online Intake Form (link in bio) and request her today!

Meet YEG Family Counselling's newest Mental Health Therapy Intern, Kayla McCagherty!

Deeply influenced by attachment, nervous system work, Kayla strives to balance those modalities with practical and tangible strategies to hopefully make your life a bit easier!

Kayla works with individuals (6+), couples, and families. She especially loves working with neurodiverse and/or q***r kiddos, teens, individuals, and families. She's also very experienced in supporting folks with neuro-developmental diagnoses (e.g. ADHD, TD, RAD, OCD, Autism, PANS, and PANDAS) and loves nerding out on all things related to executive functioning and s*xuality. Ever thought long and hard about how your experience of neurodiversity and other identity factors impact your s*xual self? If so, Kayla's your girl!

Her style is conversational, collaborative, rooted in self-compassion, and neuro-affirming care. She loves helping people better understand their brains while discovering what works for them—by drawing on research and validating their own lived experience.

And the best part? Kayla's sessions are part of our Affordable Counselling Program with sessions starting at $110/hour.

If Kayla seems like someone you might connect with, check out her bio on our website (link in bio) and book your intake with us today!
