Off the Beaten Path Psychology and Wellness is for those who want to try a different approach to counselling and mental health. We provide psychology services to people of all ages. We often combine movement and talk therapy in Airdrie 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. Welcome!
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.

Complete our online form to let us know what service you're interested in, and if you'd like to see someone in Airdrie or Calgary. Here you can also let us know if you are interested in indoors, outside, online, or a combination of settings.
We will then call or email you as soon as we can. We happily provide free 10 minute screening calls, because finding the right fit is so important. During this first connection we will discuss how we work here at OBP and let you know how to book your first session with us.
At the first session, we will get to know a bit about you, including learning about the important people in your life, what you do for fun, what you're proud of, and much more. We'll also begin to explore ways we can work together to co-create a plan and develop goals that fit with what you are hoping to get out of counselling.
