Adult Therapy at Creative Sky Psychology

Calgary Adult Psychologist

Adult Psychology Services

We use evidence-based techniques from ACT (Acceptance and Commitment Therapy), Narrative Therapy, and Cognitive Behaviour Therapy to help individuals align their actions with their personal goals and values. As we learn to recognize and move with our thoughts and emotions, our distress can often subside, leaving more room for growth and opportunity.

Creative Sky Psychology works with adults to provide therapeutic support for various issues and challenges. We offer support for managing emotions, relationships, personal and professional development, as well as difficulties related to ADHD, Anxiety, ASD, Depression, OCD, Mood Disorders, and related difficulties.

Creative Sky Psychology also offers therapeutic support for parents who are hoping to deepen their understanding of how to support their child. When parents are feeling emotionally healthy, they are better able to cope with parenting challenges and model problem solving and emotion regulation strategies. Therapy at Creative Sky Psychology can be described as supportive, growth and goal orientated, and values based. When clients learn to identify their own values and strengths, lasting change often follows. We work with adults to help manage areas of challenge within the home or workplace.

Creative Sky Psychology supports individuals to develop insight, awareness, and new patterns of thinking and being. Creative Sky Psychology provides therapy for individuals wanting to explore themes related to growth and development. We help clients develop insight, agency, and find the tools to cope and build their strengths.

Frequently Asked Questions

What will my first session look like?

The first session mostly involves gathering information about why you are seeking therapy and what you are hoping to get out of therapy. It is an introduction for your therapist to understand how they can best support you with your current challenges. Additionally, you will start to build a relationship between you and your therapist, and establish how you can best work together to create healthy changes. You can expect to learn more about yourself, process experiences, and learn how to move through challenges with awareness.

How long should I attend therapy for?

This is completely up to the individual. You may ask your therapist what they think is best, but ultimately this is up to you. However, this depends on multiple factors such as the severity of your concerns or challenges. At Creative Sky Psychology, our mission is to help you become the best version of yourself. We recommend attending counselling sessions until you feel and see the changes you are desiring.

What type of therapy is involved in Adult Therapy?

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) is an evidence-based therapy used at NU Psychology. ACT allows individuals to align their actions with their personal goals and values. It encourages individuals to develop flexibility, personal agency, and to move with thoughts and emotions rather than control them. This movement creates space and allows individuals to manage challenges, while making changes that are personally meaningful. At NU Psychology we use the principles of ACT to support our clients to increase overall well-being, manage Generalised and Social Anxiety, Specific Phobias, Depression, Obsessive Compulsive Disorder (OCD), and Depression.

Solution Focused Therapy

Solution Focused Therapy (SFT) focuses on problem solving, solution building, and finding creative outcomes for life's challenges. Solution Focused Therapy is rooted in the belief that all individuals have the ability to change and grow in adaptive ways. This enables individuals to find new ways to face challenges and make changes in their lives. NU Psychology believes in the inherent capacity in all individuals. We support our clients when they get stuck and help build capacity for current and future growth. We use Solution Focused Therapy to support our clients to manage symptoms of stress, Anxiety, Depression, and helping our clients find unique outcomes during times of change or adjustment.

Cognitive Behavioural Therapy

Cognitive Behaviour Therapy (CBT) helps individuals to better notice and understand their thoughts. As individuals learn to notice their thoughts and change their thought patterns, behaviours follow suit. Cognitive Behaviour Therapy allows individuals to develop an awareness of t thoughts, identify problems more clearly, and learn to distinguish between facts and assumptions. Cognitive Behaviour Therapy supports individuals in creating new habits, patterns, and ways of experiencing the world. Cognitive Behaviour Therapy is especially helpful in treating clinical concerns related to Generalized Anxiety Disorder, ADHD, Social Anxiety, Panic, Depression, and OCD.

Positive Psychology

Positive Psychology provides a unique platform for individuals to increase overall strength and wellness. Positive Psychology helps individuals to identify factors that contribute to happiness and well-being. This involves building positive emotions, engagement in meaningful activities and relationships, building a sense of one's own efficacy, and the ability to cope with adversity. At NU Psychology we use the concepts of Positive Psychology to increase positive emotions, meaning, engagement, and personal accomplishment. We work with our clients goals and values to support overall growth and well-being.
