Virtual across Canada, In-person in Calgary


Dakota is a Canadian Certified Counsellor (CCC) with the Canadian Counselling and Psychotherapy Association (CCPA). She holds a Masters in Counselling Psychology and provides psychological counseling to youth, young adults, adults, seniors, couples, and families. Dakota works with individuals experiencing varying physical or mental abilities, 2SLGBTQIA+ folks, athletes, and those in high-responsibility and crisis roles such as first responders. She supports clients navigating issues related to sport performance, trauma/PTSD, death and dying, grief and loss, life transitions, depression, low self-esteem, perfectionism, anxiety, and sexual health and intimacy concerns. Dakota takes a client-centred, judgment-free, strengths-based approach. Grounding her mental health therapy sessions in emotional safety, ongoing informed consent, and feedback-informed treatment, her sessions are collaborative while encouraging clients to step outside of their comfort zone and make meaningful self-directed changes in their lives. Dakota believes that individuals have the potential to achieve change when they approach their therapeutic work with curiosity. She aims to help clients experience renewed confidence and resilience to accomplish their current and future goals. Her approach may include Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), attachment-based and trauma-informed techniques, Cognitive Behaviour Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behaviour Therapy (DBT), Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT), Internal Family Systems (IFS)-informed approaches, mindfulness and embodied/somatic-informed practices, Motivational Interviewing, Narrative Therapy, and Person-Centred Therapy (PCT), as well as play and art-based methods, and Solution-Focused Therapy (SFT). Before entering clinical counselling, Dakota built over a decade of experience coaching sports for young girls, as well as in health services roles that included crisis intervention work with women and families fleeing domestic violence, and case management for youth withdrawal management programs. When not working with her clients, Dakota enjoys spending time at the pool with Alberta’s amazing athletes, taking nature strolls with her dogs, reading, and indulging in too much coffee.

I am truly grateful for the opportunity to support clients in their journey toward holistic well-being, self-acceptance, understanding, and empowerment. Many of my clients are navigating difficult life transitions, relationship concerns, and emotional distress. I am here to offer support in finding the clarity and connection often required to move forward. I have extensive experience with anxiety, depression, Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder, substance abuse, and abusive relationships. I specialize in working with survivors of cult/high-control group abuse and am an advocate of cult literacy.

I practice from a holistic perspective, taking into consideration how your mental, physical, and spiritual health come together to inform your experiences. I balance my natural solution-focused nature and passion for working with your inner strengths and successes with kindness, compassion, and understanding, in order to optimize your overall well-being.

My primary goal is to provide active listening and genuine care, so that I may help you navigate your experiences with your own values, goals, and beliefs in mind. Through working together, I hope to help you process your experiences and work toward your specific goals with gentleness and empathy.
