Meet the KR Superhero Sparklers
Hi! It’s great to meet you.
We are a team of specialized child psychologists and child therapists. Collaborating as a team makes us stronger and more adaptable to support the unique needs of each child. Joining forces, we help Calgary kids, teens, parents, and families to grow, sparkle, and shine their Superhero strengths (their spark-tacular Superpowers!)
Click on our profile pictures to explore our professional experience and expertise as specialized child psychologists, play therapists, and child therapists, and how each of us could be a great fit in growing your child’s sparkle. On the profile page of each of our team members, you will find our professional bio and a whimsical, interactive Superhero Story that you can use to introduce your child to us before they visit EmPOWERland at Kids Reconnect for the first time.
Practicum Students
Our Practicum Students provide counselling services at “pay what you can” and sliding scale rates. They practice under the supervision of a Registered Psychologist, as described under the Health Professions Act.
If you are a student, please note that we are not accepting Practicum Student applications.
Are you looking for affordable counselling options for your child or adolescent?
Please give us a call to learn more and to join the waitlist as a client of our Practicum Students.
Our team is growing
Our teams of child psychologists at Kids Reconnect (and couples therapists at Couples Reconnect) are growing fast, and we are on the lookout for more team members.
We’re hiring – join the team!
If you are a Registered Psychologist or Registered Social Worker who specializes in child or couples therapy, or if you know an outstanding therapist who would be a great fit, we would love to hear from you. Find out more about why working with us could be the professionally rewarding opportunity you are looking for on the Calgary Reconnect Counselling Group – Careers page.
Calgary Collaborators
We are a small local business, and beyond our internal team, it takes a village of wonderful people —collaborators!— to inspire, support, and grow a team.
At Calgary Reconnect Counselling Group Inc. (Kids Reconnect and Couples Reconnect), we are proud to collaborate with caring, compassionate, creative community leaders, professionals, service providers, and small business owners in a variety of disciplines that are complementary to ours.
These super amazing small local businesses also serve kids, adolescents, parents, families, couples, and our beloved Calgary community. Their mission, vision, and values align with ours, and we admire and appreciate their professionalism and talent supporting kids, families, and couples within their own mandates.
The people behind these businesses are a source of inspiration for us. We think you will love them too! Check them out, give them a follow on social media, and if you are looking for services in each of their professional capacities, we highly recommend them.
