Sarah Mateshaytis therapist counsellor

Sarah Mateshaytis, MSW, RSW

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 eight years.

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.

I am proud to be a team member at the newly opened Ensemble Healthcare clinic in NW, Calgary, offering perinatal support to individuals and families in Calgary. I am also co-founder of Collectively Tangled, a social enterprise that provides mental health education, counselling, and support to entrepreneurs and folks in the startup and innovation community.

When I’m not at work, I’m usually giving my pup, Tetley, endless snuggles and belly rubs, searching out a sun spot to sit down and read a good book, or playing in the mountains. Oh, I also really like a good cup of tea. I’ll probably be drinking one when we meet.

What is Ensemble?

Ensemble Healthcare is a multidisciplinary healthcare clinic that provides care for individuals, couples, and families throughout their pre-conception, pregnancy, postpartum, and early parenthood journeys.

Ensemble Healthcare has a team of physicians and allied healthcare professionals available to provide comprehensive service to perinatal clients. Services include: low risk obstetrical medicine, lactation consultation, infant sleep consultation, physiotherapy (general and pelvic floor), osteopathy, and counselling.

I’m happy to be a part of the Ensemble team, offering individual and couples counselling services to clients. All of my in-person services are offered at Ensemble Healthcare, although clients do not need to be perinatal clients to see me there. All clients are welcome for in-person sessions.

What is Collectively Tangled?

Collectively Tangled is a social enterprise that provides mental health education, counselling, and support to entrepreneurs and individuals in the startup and innovation space. Entrepreneurs experience mental health challenges at far greater rates than the general population. My co-founder, Keara Gillis, and I are working hard to change those stats.
