Compassion, Collaboration, Counselling

A safe space to share your story.

Your story

We all have a story. At its core, this story is how we have made sense of our experiences and interactions with others. For so many of us, our story contains painful and disruptive memories, which can shape our thoughts and behaviours. In an effort to feel safe, we tend to adapt to these life experiences by shying away from being who we are and expressing vulnerability.

While these adaptations served a short-term purpose, perhaps even helped you survive, they are not written in stone. Psychological healing and therapies can help you move through these experiences and use them to create a story that feels true to you.

My story

Hello! I’m Carolyn Lentz, MA. I’m a Registered Psychologist, licensed through the College of Alberta Psychologists. My passion and purpose is rooted in adult individual counselling and psychological healing through therapeutic approaches such as Attachment Theories, Parts Work, Trauma Theories and mindfulness.

I know what it feels like to begin to thaw, to gradually make sense of all the inner bits and pieces that have been frozen in time. I’ve been blessed with extraordinary teachers, mentors, and classmates who were a different kind of mirror offering a new reflection of myself. These beautiful mirrors were instrumental in my healing journey. Now, I hope to be that loving, compassionate mirror for others.

Compassion

Our Story

Our story will be built on the foundational values of compassion, collaboration, counselling and creativity. From a place of trust and connection, we will explore the parts of you that are in pain; that feel stuck. We will identify and evaluate “core beliefs” and behaviours that offered you safety at one time, but do not serve you anymore.

Together, we will set goals, explore therapeutic strategies and feel through hidden emotions to turn the page on limiting beliefs and behaviours and create a story that feels empowering and healing for you.
