ABOUT CHANTAL
I am a registered psychologist and teen coach working with teen girls around the globe (and their parents) to help them build Unbreakable Mindsets.
I was born in Ontario and raised in Alberta. As a result of my family encouraging us to speak French growing up (I didn’t always love it as a teen though!), I am bilingual. I love being close to the mountains and am in awe every time I see the beautiful landscapes. One day I might trade my winter jacket in for a bathing suit and a pair of flip flops, but for now Calgary is home.
I look at mental wellness as part of a Whole System. “After food comes mood” and “You’re the average of the five people you spend the most time with” are sayings that make a lot of sense to me. Therefore, when I work with teens, I collaborate with them to get a clear picture of how their lifestyle, experiences, and biological makeup influence how they feel every day. I also believe it is so important to mine for their strengths and resources. Bringing those to life for teen girls, results in them becoming their most resilient and confident selves.
I help teen girls who are struggling with their confidence, are feeling anxious, overwhelmed, or shut down a lot of the time, and want things to be different. Most certainly the struggle is affecting their self-image, their relationships, and so importantly their mental wellness.
Over the years, I have given myself permission to explore my creative side. I’m also drawn to physical fitness and sport and feel so at home in nature. I work really well with teens who have some creative connections (whether that’s drawing, painting, writing, acting, fashion, playing and making music, etc.). I also get the world of sport and connect well with teens who have an athletic side.

ABOUT JESSA
I am a psychologist working with teens, parents, and young adults in Calgary, Alberta. I am passionate about helping people become the best version of themselves and am truly honoured to work in this field.
When I am not working, I have a range of interests that keep me busy. For instance, I love animals and have a dog and a cat that both like a lot of attention (both tri-coloured and fluffy!). I also enjoy plants, being outside, cooking, baking, crafty activities, going for walks, and video games.
I love spending time with family and friends but am an introvert at heart so quieter nights at home are good too.
I have called Calgary home for most of my life and love living here. Being a psychologist lets me invest back into a place I am proud to call home.
Looking forward to meeting you!

ABOUT CHIPO
practice, I uplift teen girls to build resilience, self-worth, and self-esteem. Based on
my own experience, I know what it is like to be a teen girl struggling with transitions,
existing in an unstable environment, not having a sense of belonging, grappling with
self-identity, anxiety, depression, grief and loss, and trauma.
My personal experiences motivated me to become a Registered Social Worker. I
work with teens and their families to help them make sense of their world. By
understanding who they are, their behaviours and feelings as they embark on a
journey of self-discovery and healing beyond the life challenges they encounter.
I call this understanding and embracing your whole human nature. It consists of
having compassion for your past, present, and future self. It’s knowing that we may
have the right intent but that doesn’t mean we will always have the right impact.
Hence, we may need to hold ourselves accountable.
It’s having an openness to multiple truths. Working towards knowing who you are
can feel more than one thing and have various interpretations of your experience.
Sometimes it’s embracing that we did our best and our best is good enough.
It has to do with holding space for everything, the good, the bad, the fears and wins.
It is not allowing your past to dictate your life. Or rather, being able to turn a new leaf
and not be bound.
Sometimes, we get stuck in the past and the future, but what if we look forward to
the now? To accept the now as it is? To embrace your complete, whole, flawed, and
complex nature! Your humanness and everything in between? What a substantial
difference would that make? Together let’s work on living, evolving, and creating the
life you want together.

ABOUT TARA
** Tara is also available for bookings online and in person at the Airdrie location 101-132 1st Ave NW Airdrie, AB T4B3H4. **
I am a teen mental health therapist in the process of obtaining provisional status as a psychologist. I work with teens helping them navigate various issues and struggles they may be in experience of. I am passionate about helping teens learn through thier own self growth and really helping them to find out who they really are. Sometimes we need to think creatively and get outside the box of ourselves, and by having someone they can trust and work with is what I aim to do in sessions. I am now also serving clients at a new Airdrie location, as well as online. I look forward to meeting with you!
I have experience working with youth and teens and I also navigate parenting to four of my own kids. I tend to work with a solution focused, client centred and cognitive behavioural approach. I know that being a teen is tough, and sometimes are problems exasperated by social media and technology.
I struggled with fitting in as a teen, and I really felt that I didn’t belong. After years of soul searching and many personal ups and downs, I realized that my uniqueness was a strength. My goal is to help navigate through these difficult times while promoting self-discovery and personal strengths.
I understand that parents can often feel confused and left out of their teen’s life. I look to bridge the gap between these differences through positive communication. Teens need all the support they can get; the world and relationships can often seem crazy and unrelatable. I work to help bring closeness within existing supports and help develop and foster relationships.
With art, music, writing, play and movement we can work together to help promote self-discovery. I look forward to creating a positive and healing journey with you!
ABOUT KARI
How many times have we been told we are “too” this, “too” that, or that we can’t do something because we are girls? Growing up, I also had a hard time fitting in socially and making friends- I want to be able to help girls grow their confidence and not feel the need to apologize or dim their light for anyone. Living abroad helped me realize just how much gender roles and expectations placed on women affect our lives.
I am a life coach at Pyramid Psychology. I have several diplomas applicable to life coaching; including Coaching for Adolescents, Women’s Empowerment and Gender Equality. I’ve also taken several webinars from Gabor Mate on Trauma/Family Trauma, the Somatic Institute for Women, and have studied extensively about narcissistic personality disorder. Empowering girls is a passion of mine, I am blessed to be able to help and inspire other girls to break societal norms and follow their dreams as well.
I was born in Nova Scotia, Canada and I have traveled many places around the world including the USA, France, Germany, Mexico, Dominican Republic, Italy and Spain. I love to meet people from all over the world, to observe and appreciate their cultures and customs. I am happy to provide my coaching services in English and Spanish.
When I’m not helping amazing girls realize their potential; I love to make art (most recently digital art), listen to podcasts (about spirituality, psychology and languages), read (self help, mental health or romance), travel, go to the beach, dance, and do spiritual practices.
