About Leigh-Anne Lawrence

I’m Leigh-Anne!

I am a registered psychologist, specializing in the treatment of anxiety, self-esteem, and trauma. 

Born and raised in Calgary, I pursued my passion for psychology by completing my Master’s Degree in Counselling from City University of Seattle, and I am a member of the College of Alberta Psychologists and the Psychologists’ Association of Alberta.

My interest in mental health began during my undergraduate degree, where I volunteered on and off campus in mental health campaigns, working with youth, and educating in a variety of institutions on stress management.

In my practice, I believe that self-awareness is key to bringing change. When working together, my clients gain insight into:

  • Identifying unhelpful thinking and coping strategies

  • Working through negative self-talk

  • Exploring past traumas that created wounds and adaptive behaviours 

  • Recognizing troublesome patterns and communication styles

I help clients heal from these challenges and change their behaviour to reflect self-compassion and acceptance. My approach integrates therapeutic tools to meet clients where they're at and tailor my approach to each client’s unique needs. Working collaboratively with my clients, I identify goals and provide a safe space, free of judgement.
