Welcome!
We often combine movement and talk therapy in Airdrie, Cochrane and Calgary, Alberta. Counselling should not be a one size fits all approach. We aim to take therapy off of the couch and sometimes, out of the office to support your mental health and wellness.
You are welcome to book outdoor, office or online therapy appointments. EMDR, Emotion-focused therapy, couples and marriage therapy, and psychological assessments are all offered.

Therapy That Follows Your Path and Not Convention
You are ready to reconnect with yourself and others and you deserve a therapy approach as unique as you are. We are here to walk with you on your journey towards wellness. Inside or outside, you always have a choice.
We know what it's like to search for the right fit - someone you jive with. At Off the Beaten Path, we aim to provide a place where you will feel supported. We hold a space of non-judgement, curiosity, humour, nurture, and care. We show up as our authentic selves and work to gain your trust so that we can move forward together.
We look forward to connecting with you:
Start your journey with us by completing the form—let us know what service you’re seeking and whether Airdrie, Cochrane, or Calgary fits best. Choose your ideal setting: in-office, outdoors, online, or a flexible mix. Then tell us how you'd like to connect: book now, get a call, or receive an email. We’re here to meet you where you are.
Finding the right therapeutic fit is a lot like choosing a hiking trail. What looks right at first might feel different once you're on the path. However we first connect, we see the initial session as a chance to explore whether we're a good match for your journey. There's no pressure to continue. We're here to make sure you feel supported, comfortable, and confident moving forward.
Your first session is where we truly get to know you. We’ll talk about the important people in your life, what brings you joy, and the accomplishments you're proud of. Together, we’ll develop a plan that feels right and set goals that actually matter to you. Think of it as building your mental health toolkit with approaches that are meaningful and useful in your everyday life.
![There’s no one-size-fits-all approach to couples therapy either and that’s also a good thing.
At OBP, our therapists use evidence-informed approaches like Emotion-Focused Therapy, the Gottman Method, and CBCT for PTSD to help couples understand each other, heal from conflict, and rebuild trust.
Because relationships deserve support too. ❤️
💭 Wondering which approach is right for you?
That’s where we come in — our team will help you find the fit that meets you both where you are.

![We asked our OBP team to share stories about their most memorable teachers. What we got back was beautiful. Swipe through to read about the teachers who showed up with Band-Aids on their faces, wrote back in journals, made Math magical, and taught students to believe in themselves. 💙
Because great teachers don't just teach subjects - they teach children how to believe in themselves.
With gratitude to all the teachers in Alberta and beyond.
