Facing Challenges Is Hard. Facing Them Alone Is Even Harder.

Individual Counselling

Anxiety

Anxiety is a natural part of life and can offer valuable insight into our internal and external experiences. But when anxiety begins to interfere with daily functioning or becomes overwhelming, it may signal a deeper concern. Many people don't recognize their symptoms as problem anxiety because they've experienced it from a young age.

Our individual therapy and counselling services in Sherwood Park support adults facing anxiety, life transitions, and other mental health challenges — helping you regain clarity, balance, and personal growth.

Common Symptoms of Anxiety

  • Feeling nervous, restless, or tense

  • Rapid breathing or hyperventilation

  • Feeling weak or tired

  • Difficulty sleeping or

    insomnia

  • Difficulty controlling worry

  • Sense of impending danger or panic

  • Sweating and/or
    trembling

  • Trouble concentrating

  • Gastrointestinal problems or nausea

  • Avoiding anxiety triggers

Examples of Anxiety Disorders

— Generalized anxiety disorder

— Panic disorder

— Separation anxiety disorder

— Anxiety due to a medical condition

— Social anxiety disorder (social phobia)

— Agoraphobia

— Substance-induced anxiety

— Specific phobias

Many people experience anxiety throughout their lives — but if you or a loved one is struggling, reach out to Wholeness Psychology Centre. We can help you better understand what is happening and find the treatment that will work best.

Individual Counselling

Depression

Depression is a very common mood disorder that causes a persistent feeling of sadness and loss of interest. Although many adults struggle with depression, it can be so crippling that it is challenging to go about everyday activities and responsibilities.

Specific life circumstances — including major life changes, traumatic events, grief and loss, emotional or physical abuse, divorce, or challenges with substances — can result in feelings of depression.

Common Symptoms of Depression

  • Mood changes & low self-esteem

  • Angry outbursts or

    irritability

  • Loss of interest in normal activities

  • Frequent crying

  • Withdrawing from friends

    & family

  • Lack of appetite or

    overeating

  • Feelings of hopelessness or pessimism

  • Feelings of guilt or
    despair

  • Decreased energy or
    fatigue

  • Sleep disturbances or insomnia

  • Trouble concentrating or remembering

  • Unexplained physical problems

Types of Depression

— Major depressive disorder

— Manic depression (bipolar disorder)

— Seasonal affective disorder (SAD)

— Dysthymia (persistent depressive disorder)

— Postpartum depression

— Depression due to life stressors

For many, depression is more than just "feeling down" — and simply "snapping out of it" isn't an option. Together with a Wholeness Psychology therapist, we can help you better understand what is happening and find the treatment that will work best for you.

Individual Counselling

Challenges with Substances or Behaviours

Challenges with

Substances or Behaviours

Many people use substances or engage in certain behaviours to relax, have fun, experiment, or cope with stress, relationship struggles, chronic pain, or childhood trauma. For some, however, this use can become problematic — leading to a compulsive engagement despite harmful consequences.

Stressors such as job loss, PTSD, workplace injury, or relationship problems can cause engagement with a substance or behaviour to go from non-problematic to problematic.

An over-reliance on substances or activities can result in an inability to connect into life and other people in ways that will ultimately bring greater fulfillment.

Has your substance use or behaviour become a problem? These 4 areas can help you gain clarity:

1

Craving

The presence of a persistent craving for the substance or behaviour

2

Loss of Control Craving

Inability to control the amount or frequency

of use

3

Compulsion

A compulsion to use,

even when you don't

want to

4

Continued Use Despite Consequences

Continuing despite short- or long-term negative consequences

Reach out to Wholeness Psychology Centre if you feel you or someone you know is experiencing these challenges. We'll create a plan that works for you moving forward and develop healthy coping strategies for a healthier, more fulfilling life.

Individual Counselling

Grief and Loss

With every life transition comes both a loss and a new beginning. Difficult changes — especially those involving the loss of someone or something deeply meaningful — can bring up intense grief and other mental health challenges. Coping with loss is one of the most profound personal challenges we face.

While grief is often associated with the death of a loved one, any significant change can trigger it. Our counselling services in Sherwood Park support individuals through grief, life transitions, and their broader mental health journey.

Common Grief Experiences Include

— Divorce or relationship

breakup

— Losing a job

— Getting married or becoming

a parent

— Family dynamics and relationship issues

— Death of a pet

— A loved one's serious illness

— Loss of safety after a trauma

— Change in health

— Loss of financial stability

— A miscarriage

— Retirement

— Loss of a cherished dream

— Loss of a friendship

— Selling the family home and moving

Whatever type of loss you've experienced, there's no right or wrong way to grieve. Grief is a deeply personal process — with natural ebbs and flows along the way. You don't have to face it alone.

At Wholeness Psychology Centre, our individual therapy and counselling services offer compassionate support for grief, life transitions, and related mental health concerns. Together with one of our skilled therapists, we'll explore your needs and help you move forward with care and clarity.

What is individual counselling and how does it work?

Individual counselling is a one-on-one therapeutic relationship between you and a registered psychologist or therapist. At Wholeness Psychology Centre in Sherwood Park, your therapist takes time to understand your unique experiences, challenges, and goals — then creates a personalized plan to help you move forward.

What issues can individual counselling in Sherwood Park help with?

Our individual counselling services address anxiety, depression, grief and loss, trauma, self-esteem, relationship struggles, challenges with substances, life transitions, and more. If you're unsure whether counselling is right for your situation, we encourage you to reach out.

How long does individual therapy take before I see results?

Every person's journey is different. Some clients notice meaningful shifts within a few sessions; others benefit from longer-term support. During your first appointment at our Sherwood Park clinic, your therapist will discuss what a realistic timeline looks like for your specific goals.

Do I need a referral to book individual counselling at Wholeness Psychology?

No referral is needed. You can book directly through our JaneApp booking system or contact us by phone or email. We welcome self-referrals, and also work with clients referred by physicians, schools, or employers.

Does Wholeness Psychology offer online individual counselling?

Yes. We offer online, phone, and in-office individual counselling sessions for adults across Alberta — including Sherwood Park, Edmonton, Calgary, Fort Saskatchewan, and Hinton. Virtual sessions are equally effective and offered on a secure platform.

Is individual counselling covered by insurance in Alberta?

Sessions with our registered psychologists may be covered under many employer-sponsored health benefit plans. We recommend checking with your insurance provider for your specific coverage. Receipts are provided for all sessions.
