Penelope Yen
Psychologist, BA (Hons), MACP, Registered Provisional Psychologist
Don't you wish you could move forward from trauma and stop it from impacting your day-to-day life? I can help you recover from trauma, work through relationship issues, and live a more meaningful and fulfilling life. My skills come not only from my education and training, but also from a profuse amount of lived experience. I have faced my own mental health struggles and traumas in the past and I know how hard it can be to move forward.
My goal is to provide truly helpful, evidence-based psychological assessment and counselling for adult individuals and couples. I always aim to provide the best possible type of therapy according to your preferences and the way your mind works. I am neurodiversity affirming and believe in working with you, not on you.
I have a particular interest in helping adults who have experienced trauma, whether in childhood or recently, but even if you're just going through a tough or confusing time, I can work with you to truly find a more fulfilling path through life and its issues. I also go over and above the therapy hour to provide your own portal of relevant digital resources.

Nakasha Ogbonna
Registered Social Worker, RSW
I am a dual province (Ontario & Alberta) registered social worker specializing in mental health. Before entering private practice, I served as the University of Calgary’s Mental Health Consultant where I was the primary on-campus therapeutic support for staff, faculty, and post doctorates. I now work in private practice supporting individuals, couples, families, and groups. I also have specialized training and experience working with first responders and their families in dealing with operational stress injuries. My breadth of experience includes work with patients accessing community public health as well as school aged youth in primary and secondary school divisions.

Carl Conradi
Counsellor/Therapist, CCC, MSc, MBA
My name is Carl Conradi, and I’m a Canadian Certified Counsellor (CCC) based in Calgary, Alberta, Canada. I’m an integratively-trained counsellor, which means that I draw upon three different therapeutic approaches – existential, cognitive-behavioural (CBT), and psychodynamic – to help support processes that are warm, exploratory, philosophical, and totally unique to each client.
My particular approach to counselling is highly relational and non-pathologising. I believe that all psychological experiences are instructive – even those that feel unbearable – and that within the context of the bond that you and I will create together, you’ll be invited to explore new ways of thinking, feeling, and being in the world.
I work with adult and adolescent individuals who are experiencing a wide array of psychological challenges, including (but not limited to): attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), anxiety, depression, loneliness, men’s issues, problematic anger, obsessive-compulsiveness (OCD), post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), relationship difficulties, and/or work-related stress. I’m also very skilled at working alongside folks who are navigating major life changes, such as: bereavement, diagnosis, divorce, job insecurity or loss, etc.
I’m a passionate advocate of mental wellbeing within the LGBTQIA+, veteran and first responder, and consensually non-monogamous communities.

Sarah Mikael
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, MSW & MACP
I know how it feels to be broken and dead inside. Life can be a never-ending struggle of trying to belong and please but always ending up rejected and labeled to be a disappointment. I know how much damage a toxic environment can cause. I know how it feels to be singled out and called crazy because your doctor put you on antidepressants. I can feel your struggle of trying to hide behind a fake smile while struggling with holding your tears. Believe me when I say that you are not alone. I have been there but I rewrote my story and I want to help you rewrite yours.
My life changed when I realized that anything that cost me my peace of mind was too expensive to pay for. Learning to let go of overthinking and focusing on the possibilities was part of my healing journey.
