About Owain

Owain is a psychotherapist working with children , youth and their famiiles, adults and couples as a Certified Canadian Counsellor. His fees are $190 with direct billing to Medavie Blue Cross, Canada Life, Manulife, Greenshield and covered under many more plans, please check your coverage. Alberta Blue cross may cover but you need to send in the receipt. My counselling practice is guided by the principles of respect, cultural curiosity, empowerment, and self-efficacy. I have experience with children with trauma, behavior and divorce. I have a special interest in Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Gottman Relationship Theory and play based interventions. I have extended experience working with at risk your and parents as well as a youth pastor and provide Faith Based Counselling when requested. I am also trained in Gottman Method and support couples using Gottman and ACT approaches. In working with children and youth I also have experience and training in the area of assessment and can support you and your child in understanding behaviors and needs. I am passionate about supporting and empowering children and youth from a variety of backgrounds. I currently work as a Child and Youth Care Worker (CYCW) and provide emotional and social supports to children and youth at a therapeutic residential treatment campus in the Edmonton Area. Prior to becoming a CYCW, I worked as a youth pastor at a church in Edmonton for five years providing a variety of supports and opportunities for young people. I received my Masters in Religious Studies from the University of Alberta in 2019, and my Bachelor of Arts from the University of Alberta in 2011. I acknowledge that I live on Treaty 6 territory, and respect the traditional knowledge, territories, and peoples of this land. As our society continues to learn about the legacy of colonialism in Canada, I continue to seek ways to decolonize my own practices.
