Mental health is a state of coping, feeling good, and being in control of your emotions and your life. However, there are everyday challenges, unexpected changes, and hurdles in life which can impact your ability to cope in certain situations. Work and home environment, financial situation, and relationships all affect our mental health. To add to this, many people fear they will be rejected or judged if they seek help. Although these feelings are common, covering up problems can make it difficult to live a full and healthy life. At Cornerstone, our counsellors help clients learn to accept and understand their feelings. This awareness can be the first step toward becoming renewed, healed, and transformed.

Andrew McBeth
Andrew McBeth is currently a Master of Counselling Psychology student at Yorkville University. He graduated from Vanguard College in 2015 with a Bachelor of Religious Studies. Additionally, Andrew has worked in radio broadcasting and as a pastor with the Christian and Missionary Alliance in Canada.
For Andrew, working as a therapist is viewed as an act of human service, from which professional excellence and quality care entwine to promote a sense of safety and wellbeing for people seeking counselling. Andrew finds nothing more fulfilling than the experience of journeying alongside individuals during times of difficulty, helping them navigate the countless complexities of life en route to therapeutic change.
Andrew is also interested in spirituality and the exploration of what people consider to be spiritually sacred. He believes the counselling process, when integrated with spirituality, can facilitate health and wellbeing as people discover more of themselves through an inquisitive investigation of what is held most sacred.
Inspirational Quote
“Reality is more what we make of it than what it might really be.” –Steve De Shazer
How do you believe counselling can help
Counselling provides a bridge between problematic situations and change. As the cornerstone of counselling, the therapeutic relationship provides people with the opportunity to address and work through deep-seated psychological concerns free from such obstacles as bias and judgement. No matter the issue—emotional turmoil, life change, crisis, doubts, difficulties, frustrations, spirituality, or suicidality—counselling lays the groundwork for resiliency and provides a path forward towards personal healing and transformation.
Your Approach to Counselling
As a counsellor, my role is to facilitate depth of discovery by helping you develop a deeper understanding of yourself and your potential to enact change in your life. Through an integrative approach to counselling that draws from numerous therapeutic methods, the goal is to tailor the approach to your unique circumstance and needs. Aside from the therapeutic method, the counsellor-client relationship is paramount in that you and I, through a collaborative relationship, co-create a therapeutic experience conducive to the outcomes that you’re seeking to achieve.

Inspirational Quotes:
“To be one, to be united is a great thing. But to respect the right to be different is maybe even greater.” – Bono (Pop group U2 front man)
How do you believe counselling can help?
We are all trying to go through life as best we can, using the gifts that God has given us to the best of our abilities. Counselling allows us to recognize those gifts more clearly and use them in a positive and helpful way as we travel through the peaks and valleys of our own unique journey.
Your approach to counselling:
My main goal as a counsellor is to listen and work collaboratively with clients in achieving their goals. I aim to offer a safe and judgement-free space in which the client can learn and grow. I try to use theoretical approaches that will best suit the client; however, my background is in Solution-Focused Therapy.

How do you believe counselling can help?

Inspirational Quote:
“If you can’t fly, then run, if you can’t run, then walk, if you can’t walk, then crawl, but whatever you do, you have to keep moving forward.” – Martin Luther King Jr.
“Hardships often prepare ordinary people for an extraordinary destiny…” – C.S. Lewis
How do you believe counselling can help?
“I believe that counselling provides people with the opportunity to discover new things about themselves. I also believe that counselling can provide a voice to the voiceless, hope to the hopeless and power to the powerless. It is a place where people can grow, develop and experience their own uniqueness, which can be exciting and scary all at the same time. When our hearts are revealed to us, we are graced with seeing the beauty inside. On the flipside, we also are vulnerable to seeing the not so beautiful areas in our lives. To learn to love and respect all parts of who we are and what they have given to us provides a person with the affinity to move through and experience healing.”
Your approach to counselling:
“Multiple facets impact people and how they interact with the world. I desire to provide a safe place for people to be heard, respected and honoured through love and compassion. Through time, sensitivity and understanding, we come to process as to how to best bring peace, healing and hope, personally for you. This can be a scary, unpredictable journey, but I will always do my best for those who come, so I invite you to come as you are, and just be. I love to meet you where you are, and I love to walk into places that may be scary to go alone.”

When she took her first psychology course, she was totally inspired and knew that it was the direction that her career would take. She continued to believe that it was the most wonderful choice of career for herself. Marliss has always been fortunate to love her work. Marliss’s strongest interests in counselling are stress management, marriage counselling, Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder, understanding cognitive disabilities and special education needs, managing behavior problems, depression, and anxiety.
How do you believe counselling can help?

Your approach to counselling:

Inspirational Quotes:
“Every flower must grow through dirt.” – Laurie Jean Sennott
How do you believe counselling can help?
I believe that counselling provides a safe relationships and environment that allows individuals to test the limits of their beliefs and practice new behaviors they want to bring out into the rest of the world.
Your approach to counselling:
I generally work from a cognitive behavioral approach that shows clients how to tackle their thoughts, emotions, or behaviors. However, I also use a client-centered approach, and I try to match the client where they’re at in the process of change. This means finding the right techniques for each client and working with them to make sure we’re tailoring therapy to be just right!

Sean Rogers, Ph.D.
Sean graduated from the University of Alberta with his Bachelor of Arts in 1991. He went on to the University of Minnesota earning his Master’s degree in Counselling Psychology in 1994.
Sean completed an internship in adoption, attachment disorder and play therapy in 1996. He has been counselling for 21 years and his strongest interests are military families and the stresses they face, the impact of childhood trauma, adoption and how people adjust to later adoption, family dynamics, and adjustment to family transitions.
Sean works with children, families and couples. He works with children beginning in infancy, but any work with children younger than 5 takes the form of parental consultation and focuses on building therapeutic parenting skills. Sean does counselling and assessments with children and families. He chose to become a counsellor because he was always drawn to service based careers that involved helping others: policing, military, counselling, and teaching. He believes that counselling impacts lives in a very personal and satisfying way. It is humbling and awe-inspiring to be part of a person’s efforts to improve themselves and overcome the pain in their lives.
Inspirational Quotes:
“Be the person you want your child to become” – Noah ben Seah
“Experience consists of mistakes from which you learn. Failure consists of mistakes from which you don’t.” – Gary Emery
How do you believe counselling can help?
“Through the application of compassion, insight, and specific techniques within the context of a trusting therapeutic relationship, counselling offers people the opportunity to alter their frame of reference and re-write their working models (the assumptions we have about ourselves, others and the world around us). These assumptions colour our experience, decisions, and emotional responses. They are learned through our past personal experiences and create our expectations about the present and the future. A person’s anxieties or unhappiness today result from their past experiences, and the working models the person has created based on those experiences.”
Your approach to counselling:
“Eclectic. At its base, my approach arises from Humanistic-Existential psychology. I make heavy use of Cognitive Behavioral techniques. My work with children is fairly systemic, taking into account the context in which the child lives, and involving the parents in an ongoing consultation process, even when the work is focused on the child.”

Sheila Ennin
Sheila completed the Masters of Counselling program at City University of Seattle, Edmonton. She graduated from the University of Alberta in 2017 with a Bachelor of Science in Psychology and minor in Biological Sciences.
Striving to provide therapy to persons in need, Sheila has a deep interest in understanding people in their entirety. She believes it is important to see the person as a whole, and to understand the factors, events, and people, that have shaped who they are, and the path that has led them to therapy. Therefore, being aware of unique factors such as the oppression, pain, and barriers her clients face, is very important to her.
Inspirational Quotes:
“The wound is the place where the light enters you.” – Rumi
How do you believe counselling can help?
I believe each person is the master of their own life. Therefore, my main role as a therapist is to help support people and help them achieve insight about themselves, their relationships, and their behaviors. Counselling, just like many other environments, allows a space where people can build new and positive experiences. If the therapeutic environment is safe, supportive, and non-judgmental, a strong therapeutic relationship can be built in which healing and growth can occur.
Your approach to counselling:
Currently, my approach to therapy can be summarized as eclectic because I truly believe in meeting people where they are at. However, the roots of my work lie heavily in Psychodynamic Psychotherapy, Cognitive Behavioral therapy, and Narrative therapy. Furthermore, I am trained in EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) techniques for working with trauma.

Shelby completed her Master of Counselling degree at City University of Seattle in Edmonton and is a registered provisional psychologist through the College of Alberta Psychologists.

Shelby works with adults, adolescents, children, couples, and families from all walks of life. She believes that we are all responsible for creating our own meaning in life.

Shelby will work with you to overcome the things that may be holding you back in life and to strengthen your genuine self.
Inspirational Quotes:
“Meanings are not determined by situations, but we determine ourselves by the meanings we give to situations.” – Alfred Adler
How do you believe counselling can help?
Each person has a unique perspective that shapes the way they view the world and make sense of things. These perspectives dictate how and why a person behaves the way that they do, but sometimes we get stuck in negative patterns that are hard to get out of. Awareness of our unique patterns and ourselves is the first step to creating a meaningful life. Counselling provides a safe environment in which we can explore and work towards a healthier version of ourselves.
Your approach to counselling:
As a counsellor my role is to teach, guide, and encourage people in creating a better understanding and changing the parts of their life story that is holding them back. My goal is to create a cooperative, optimistic, respectful, and growth-focused therapeutic environment in which people can feel safe. Although much of my practice is influenced by Adlerian psychotherapy, I draw on other counselling models to fit the unique needs of each individual.

He has much experience in working with adolescents in various capacities as well as adults. He is most interested in working with people with various types of anxiety, phobias, and depression since his theoretical orientation is both CBT and REBT.

Inspirational Quotes:
“Men are disturbed not by things, but by the view which they take of them.” – Epictetus
How do you believe counselling can help?
“I believe therapy can help by developing trust with people while they begin to share very personal aspects of their lives. As clients start to open up and feel comfortable, they often discuss issues that they have never disclosed before, and it is often during these times that the process of change starts to occur.”
Your approach to counselling:
“My approach to therapy involves seeing the client as the expert, as they know themselves better than anyone. Regardless of which modality I use, I always take a client centered approach by showing empathy, congruence, and unconditional positive regard which is arguably most important.”

“Just keep swimming” – Dory in the movie Finding Nemo
How do you believe counselling can help
Counselling is a gift to yourself. It provides a safe space to get to know the real you, explore your challenges, and find meaning, healing, and peace.
Your Approach to Counselling
I approach counselling from a humanistic, person-centered perspective where clients are accepted unconditionally, with empathy, and without judgement. I believe people’s lived experiences hold clues towards understanding themselves and alleviating their current distress. I am learning to practice in a culturally responsive and socially just way by attending to clients’ cultural identities and spirituality. Keeping in mind each individual/family’s unique needs, I am drawn to integrated psychotherapy approaches including Solution Focused Therapy, CBT, REBT, Spiritually Oriented, and Mindfulness-Based Therapies.

“Choose, everyday to forgive yourself. You are human, flawed, and most of all worthy of love.” – Alison Malee
How do you believe counselling can help
In creating a therapeutic connection, individuals can feel heard and seen at their deepest levels. In this space compassion, validation, strength, and worthiness are cultivated and individuals can become more equipped to better walk through situations they are experiencing. I truly believe that positive growth best occurs through human connection.
Your Approach to Counselling
I strive to create a compassionate, dignified, and safe environment. The foundation of my practice is built on person-centered techniques and I often utilize cognitive behavioural, attachment, feminist/liberationist, and emotion-focused theories. In this space, there can be collaborative work in exploring new areas, inspiring awareness, and fostering healthy lifestyles and relationships.
