At Mindful Mage Counselling (MMC), therapy isn't just talking, it's like a starting a New Game + (NG+)!
Here, you’re not a diagnosis or a case file, you’re a character in development, navigating a world full of emotional encounters, identity puzzles, and relational boss battles. Based in Calgary, I deliver counselling in-person on Saturdays or virtually on Tuesdays, Wednesdays, and Fridays across Alberta.

Therapy shouldn’t feel like grinding EXP in the wrong dungeon. Our approach blends storytelling, strategy, and skills:
Therapeutically-Applied Role-Playing Games (TA-RPG) → role-play & campaigns to practise life’s hardest encounters.
Narrative Therapy → your past isn’t trauma, it’s lore. Let’s reframe it.
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), & Mindfulness → build your mental loadout to manage stress, anxiety, and burnout.
Pop Culture Integration → boss fights, status effects, warp cores offline — we’ll use the metaphors that fit your world.
Two-Eyed Seeing → weaving Western psychology with Indigenous worldviews for whole-person healing.

“You’re not broken. You’re becoming.”
Therapy doesn’t have to be cold or clinical. It can feel like character creation or the first page of a new campaign.
You don’t need to be in crisis to start. Just curious. Just ready. Just tired of being stuck in the same loop. So, what's stopping you?
