About Me

Welcome, I'm Amanda Skwarok, R. Psych.

 

I'm a Registered Psychologist with the College of Alberta Psychologists (CAP), supporting teens, young adults, university students, and parents through my independent practice as well as through Nova Psychology where I will be expanding my professional training in psychological assessment!

 

I work with individuals who may appear to be managing well on the outside while feeling overwhelmed beneath the surface. Whether you're navigating anxiety, stress, emotional exhaustion, relationship challenges, identity concerns, or major life transitions, therapy can offer a space to slow down, gain clarity, and reconnect with yourself.

 

My approach is warm, collaborative, and down-to-earth, grounded in evidence-informed psychological practice. Together, we work to understand patterns, strengthen emotional regulation, develop practical coping strategies, and build the confidence and habits needed to navigate life's challenges.

 

I also support parents who want to better understand and connect with their teen or young adult. When communication becomes difficult or tension builds at home, we work toward healthier communication and more supportive, connected relationships.

 

My goal is to help you feel more grounded in who you are, more confident in navigating life's challenges, and better equipped to build the life and relationships you want.

Services

Each person and family has unique needs, and my services are designed to support you in your own process.

I provide therapy for teens, young adults, and parents, along with consultation and community-based support. My work focuses on helping clients build insight, emotional regulation, and practical skills they can use in everyday life, using a blend of evidence-based therapy and real-world application.

My Approach

Mental health is more than symptoms, it’s your story, your context, and your strengths. My approach is holistic and person-centered, meaning we look at your thoughts, emotions, body, and environment together. I use evidence-based therapies in a grounded, practical way, not as quick fixes, but as tools that support real, lasting change. Above all, I aim to provide a safe, validating space where you feel heard, understood, and supported as you move forward at your own pace.
