Welcome!

My name is Dr. Cherie Peterson and I am a registered clinical psychologist practicing in the southwest area of Calgary, Alberta.  I specialize in providing cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT), which is an empirically supported, effective treatment for mental health concerns and I am a credentialed therapist with the Canadian Association of Cognitive and Behavioural Therapies.  For the previous 10 years I had the opportunity to provide psychotherapy to clients in a mental health clinic with Alberta Health Services, where I gained valuable experience treating a wide range of mild to severe mental health concerns (i.e., depressed mood, anxiety and stress, relationship difficulties).  During my time in community mental health I was also involved in community consultation, comprehensive psychological assessments, group therapy, program development, and the training of psychology residents and practicum students.  If you are considering therapy, I would be happy to speak with you by phone at (403)922-1903 to talk about the therapy process, discuss your present concerns, and help you decide if you would like to proceed with services.
