Hello and welcome!
My name is Kalua Rhody and I am the owner of Paramount Psychology and Counselling, where I provide therapy and clinical supervision services.
I have been a Registered Psychologist since 2008, and over the years I’ve had the privilege of supporting teens, adults and couples through many of life’s challenges and transitions.
From 2008 to 2015, I worked in the non-profit sector, providing trauma-informed therapy and crisis intervention to survivors of abuse while collaborating closely with community agencies to ensure comprehensive support. During this time, I also facilitated self-esteem and women’s support groups, co-created a life skills program to support addiction recovery, and delivered specialized training on sexual abuse and trauma-informed practice to professionals across Alberta.
I supervised nursing students during their mental health practicums, and co-presented at professional conferences—early experiences that deepened my passion for teaching, mentorship, and advancing best practices in mental health care. I also had the privilege of teaching an introductory psychology course at the local college, which deepened my interest in mentorship and planted the seed that I would one day provide supervision for those entering the field.
In 2012, I opened my private practice and in 2020 expanded it to Paramount Psychology & Counselling, a group practice where I continue to offer individual and couples therapy as well as clinical supervision.
My therapeutic approach is collaborative and flexible—I draw from Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), mindfulness, positive psychology, attachment theory and neuroscience, and am passionate about mind-body strategies such as ART (Accelerated Resolution Therapy), EFT Tapping (Emotion Freedom Techniques) and EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing). I also integrate advanced couples’ therapy methods, including the Gottman Method, the Developmental Model, the Doherty Approach and Relational Life Therapy, always tailoring therapy to fit each client’s unique goals.
Among other outcomes, I help my clients learn how to:
* Discover and release limiting beliefs or self-sabotaging patterns
* Communicate effectively and resolve conflict for stronger, more fulfilling relationships
* Manage stress, anxiety, and overwhelm in healthier ways
* Heal from trauma, abuse, and childhood wounds
* Navigate grief, loss, and major life transitions
* Let go of fears, anger, or sadness that keep depression entrenched
* Build resilience, inner strength, and courage
* Set boundaries and practice assertiveness
* Achieve balance between work, relationships, and personal wellbeing
* Cultivate self-compassion, self-forgiveness, and self-love
Alongside my clinical work, I provide supervision for counselling interns and provisional psychologists and consultation for colleagues. I view it as a collaborative process where emerging professionals can grow in confidence and skill while strengthening their ethical decision-making, case conceptualization, and self-reflection.
At the heart of all that I do is the belief that relationship is paramount. More important than any single technique is the quality of the relationship—whether in therapy or supervision. My intention is to ensure you feel deeply seen and understood, while gently inviting you to take meaningful steps toward the life and relationships you want.
