Meet your counsellor
I’m a mom to a zesty toddler, a dog-mom to a spirited and energetic pup, and a partner. I’m also an entrepreneur, so I deeply understand the challenges of juggling the personal and professional.
While I’ve always been interested in perinatal mental health, my own transition to parenthood really hammered that home.
I promise you: I get it. Wherever you’re at in your parenting journey, I’m here for it and here for you.
I’m a registered social worker with the Alberta College of Social Workers, and have a Masters in Social Work with a clinical specialization from the University of Calgary. I’ve been supporting adults, children, youth, and families in the mental health field for the past ten years.
Sarah Mateshaytis, MSW, RSW
I have additional training in Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, Brief Solution Focused Therapy, Functional Family Therapy, and Perinatal Mental Health. I also draw upon Narrative Therapy and attachment theory in my work with clients. Working systemically is important to me. We don’t live, work, or maintain relationships in a silo, so considering the different systems at play is an important part of therapy. It’s also important to me that therapy is action-oriented. While sometimes we need space to simply talk things out, new tools, strategies, and approaches are a key part of the process.
I’m a team member at Ensemble Healthcare in NW, Calgary, offering perinatal support to individuals and families. I am also co-founder of Collectively Tangled, a mental health startup that provides therapy to entrepreneurs.
When I’m not at work, I’m usually singing Baa Baa Black Sheep on repeat while chasing my toddler around, giving my pup, Tetley, endless snuggles and belly rubs, and hopefully — with both in tow — spending time in the mountains. I also really like a good cup of tea. I’ll probably be drinking one when we meet.
