Mr. Salvatore Durante, M.Ed., Registered Psychologist
(he/him)
About Me
https://www.mindspringpsych.com/team I provide counselling to adults, in the areas of trauma, cancer, grief, relationship challenges, work-life stress, perfectionism, guilt-shame, anxiety, depression, difficulties managing troubling thoughts, and body concerns. In counselling sessions, I start with a person-centred approach that involves attention to the therapeutic relationship. Subsequently, I apply an emotion-focused, or Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) treatment plan. For trauma, I utilize prolonged exposure, Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), or cognitive processing therapy. I am happy to speak with you to determine if I am the right fit for your needs, or to direct you to the appropriate professional. You can also book an appointment directly through our website.
Education & Experience
I have completed a Master of Education degree in Counselling Psychology at the University of Alberta.
