I am Clayton Falk a registered psychologist & Canadian certified counsellor.

My Psychotherapy and Counselling perspective:

“I believe it takes courage to recognize the need for help and then reach out for that help. I will work with you, helping you get through many of life’s challenges! I draw from a variety of proven approaches from solutions focused therapy to cognitive behavioural therapy.”

I will work with you as a therapist to help you best assess your therapy needs and then work collaboratively with you to best meet those needs. I find that people have their own inner strength to work through problems and find needed solutions to issues they are facing in their lives. I will work with you to help uncover those strengths and add the needed resources to your current strengths, that will allow you to move forward positively in your life.

I also provided Couples/Marriage Therapy.

Many people take care of things such as their car, house and physical health on a regular basis. However neglect such important aspects of their live like their couple relationship and mental health. In particular as life gets busy the couple relationship takes a back seat to other concerns in their live. However research has found that if individuals are struggling in their intimate relationship then many aspects of their life can suffer including physical health and mental health. When was the last time you had a couple’s relationship check-up/tune-up. If you are struggling then ccouples counselling can help! I help couples work on rebuilding and strengthen their relationship using a variety of proven approaches including, but not limited to the use of Gottman method couples therapy, solution focused approach, cognitive behavioural techniques.

Biography I worked in corporate client relations for many years. While I enjoyed developing relationships with both colleagues and clients very much, I always longed to make the connections more intimate, and the work I engaged in more profound. I returned to school to complete my Master of Arts in Counselling Psychology, completing my practicum at the prestigious Calgary Counselling Centre to pursue my dream of working with people in more meaningful and engaged ways. My unique blend of different backgrounds places me in a distinct position of understanding the stress and strain of corporate life, the struggles involved in feeling stuck, and the stress associated with life transitions, even when they are both necessary and wanted. In my spare time I enjoy being outdoors, cooking, reading, and spending time with my partner, twin daughters, and our cat Abby.

Couples/Marriage Counselling Statement:

Conflict and struggles happen any time two people are in relationship with each other. Sometimes it is difficult to navigate these conflicts by yourself. Coming to couples counselling can be a great way to learn more about yourself, your partner, develop skills to strengthen your relationship and deal with conflict in practical ways. I use the Gottman method when counselling couples. It begins with a comprehensive assessment and then strategically addressing the most problematic areas in your relationship.

Children’s Counselling Statement:

It can be very overwhelming and devastating when your children are struggling. I am very passionate about helping children and parents navigate these times. When working with children my first priority is developing a strong relationship with the child so they feel comfortable. I primarily use play, art and sand tray therapy when working with children these activities to help children process their internal experience and challenge their perceptions of their struggles. Through therapy the child will learn how connect with their authentic self, regulate themselves and have self-compassion.
