Therapy in Calgary | Strength-Based Psychologists for Adults & Teens

Rewriting Your Story with Therapy

Every person carries an inner story. Some chapters lift us up, while others weigh us down. At NU Psychology, our Calgary psychologists help you uncover the beliefs that no longer serve you — and re-author your story with compassion, strength, and clarity.

We provide therapy for adults, teens, parents, and couples — in person at our Killarney office and online across Alberta. Our work is strength-based, narrative-informed, and always tailored to your goals.

Who We Support at NU Psychology

Adult Therapy in Calgary

Many adults appear “high-functioning” on the outside — while inside, they feel anxious, disconnected, or burnt out.

We help adults with:

  • Anxiety, panic, and constant overthinking

  • Depression, disconnection, and low motivation

  • ADHD-related overwhelm, time blindness, and shutdowns

  • Disordered eating, body shame, or perfectionism

  • Career burnout and identity loss

  • Relationship fatigue, boundary struggles, or separation

  • Unresolved trauma or emotional wounds

  • Chronic anxiety, panic, and overthinking

  • Disordered eating and body shame

  • ADHD-related overwhelm or shutdown

  • Relationship fatigue and boundary struggles

  • Career burnout and identity loss

  • Unresolved trauma or emotional wounds

Couples Counselling in Calgary

Couples counselling at NU Psychology helps with:

  • Communication breakdowns and recurring conflict

  • Rebuilding trust after rupture or betrayal

  • Parenting differences or blended family stress

  • Preventative growth, not just repair

Your relationship doesn’t have to feel heavy. We’ll help you rediscover clarity, connection, and resilience.

We support parents with:

  • ADHD, autism, OCD, or emotional struggles in children and teens

  • Power struggles, shutdowns, and sibling conflict

  • Co-parenting, blended families, and separation

  • Parenting burnout, guilt, or self-doubt

At NU, we help you build confidence, connection, and calm at home.
