Owner and Registered Psychologist

Jas Badesha, M.Ed., R. Psych.

Welcome and thank you for visiting my website. 


Every individual has an inherent capacity to evolve and grow, even when confronted with adversity. My mission is to support people through their struggles and foster meaningful, lasting change. I am dedicated to providing effective psychological services to improve mental health and wellness, paving the way to a richer and more fulfilling life.


I graduated with a Master’s degree in Counselling Psychology from the University of Alberta in 2002 and have been a Registered Psychologist with the College of Alberta Psychologists  since 2003.


For nearly two decades, I worked with Alberta Health Services, where I had the privilege not only of supporting individuals and families, but also of serving in leadership roles that allowed me to guide teams, develop services, and contribute to system-wide improvements in mental health care. I have now  transitioned from this meaningful chapter into full-time private practice, where I continue my commitment to providing compassionate, evidence-based care to provide effective psychological services.


Outside of my work, I cherish time with my teenage son, my loving husband, and our sweet Havanese dog, Shanti. I find joy in Zumba, yoga, reading, gardening, and connecting with friends and family. These passions help me maintain balance and bring warmth and authenticity to my work with clients.

about Me

My Philosophy

Every individual has an inherent capacity to evolve and grow, even when confronted with adversity. My mission is to support people through their struggles and foster meaningful, lasting change. Although this can be uncomfortable, confronting the most challenging obstacles often serves as the catalyst for personal growth.  I am dedicated to providing effective psychological services to  improve mental health, empowering clients to break free from self-imposed limits, paving the way to a richer and more fulfilling life. Both in office and virtual sessions for therapy and counselling are available.  


Education and Experience

I am a highly experienced  psychologist providing therapy and counselling. Throughout my career, I have worked in diverse settings providing psychological services in Hospitals, Schools, Child and Family Services, Employee and Family Assistance Programs, Adult and Children's Addiction and Mental Health services, the Legal System,  Private Practice and Alberta Health Services. I have also trained numerous mental health and allied health professionals in client centered and recovery orientated care. 


Over the course of my career, I have developed a comprehensive understanding of the diverse challenges individuals face, which allows me to provide nuanced and effective psychological services to clients from all walks of life.

Clinical Supervision

Supporting the Profession of Psychology

   

In addition to my clinical work, I continue to provide supervision to Provisional Psychologists—an aspect of my role that I find deeply meaningful. Supporting the development of emerging clinicians allows me to give back to the profession that has given so much to me, and to honor the exceptional mentorship I received throughout my own journey. 


 If you are a Registered or Provisional Psychologist with the College of Alberta Psychologists and are seeking supervision, I welcome you to connect with me. Together, we can explore your learning needs to ensure a strong and supportive fit that fosters growth and confidence in your therapy and counselling practice.
