About
Hello,
My name is Ciara Neave, and I am a Registered Provisional Psychologist working out of Instep Equine in Millarville, Alberta, and Center Street Psychology in Calgary, Alberta.
I am dedicated to providing professional psychological assessments (18+), ADHD assessments (18+), and therapy services in Calgary, Alberta, to help individuals address life’s challenges.
I support children, adolescents, and adults, offering both in-person and virtual sessions across the province. My work focuses on supporting mental health and emotional well-being through a compassionate, evidence-based approach.
I’ve worked in a variety of settings, including public schools, community programs, and private clinics, gaining experience with anxiety, depression, stress, life transitions, self-esteem challenges, identity development, childhood trauma, and more. I also support clients managing mental health alongside chronic health conditions such as ADHD, ASD, and Type 1 or Type 2 diabetes.
I use a range of evidence-based therapies including Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Dialectical Behaviour Therapy (DBT), Solution-Focused Brief Therapy (SFBT), Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), attachment-informed approaches, and mindfulness practices. I also offer equine-assisted therapy in combination with other modalities, providing a unique, experiential space to explore emotions and build coping skills.
In sessions, I aim to create a safe, inclusive, and non-judgmental environment where clients can feel heard, understood, and supported as they navigate life’s challenges and strengthen their emotional well-being.
