OUR STORY
THE NORTHERN SKY
Life, like the sky, is ever-changing—shifting between moments of clarity, storms of uncertainty, and the quiet in-between. But no matter how turbulent the weather, the sky remains vast and steady, holding space for transformation. Wherever you are on your journey, we are here to walk alongside you—helping you find clarity, reconnect with your inner strength, and embrace the brilliance that has been within you all along.

Meet Mariah

Hi there! I’m Mariah, a registered psychotherapist and certified clinical trauma specialist. I hold a double major in Psychology and Medical Science as well as a Masters in Counselling Psychology.

I’m often asked why I chose a career in mental health. For me, psychotherapy felt like a natural path—combining my deep fascination with the human mind and my innate desire to help others. This passion not only led me to this field but also fuels my commitment to lifelong learning.
When I’m not in the office, you’ll often find me in nature –hiking, camping, exploring local trails or stargazing. The outdoors is where I feel most at peace.

Our Approach

At Northern Sky Psychotherapy, we strive to create a space where you feel safe, seen, and supported—a place to unravel your experiences, deepen self-awareness, expand coping skills, and rediscover your strength, empowering you to move forward in a life that feels more aligned, meaningful and whole.

Our approach is trauma-informed, client-centered, and rooted in the mind-body connection, recognizing the mind’s capacity for healing and transformation. We honour your unique journey and ensure that therapy progresses at a pace that feels right for you.

Treatment Focus

Our treatment focus is integrative, trauma-informed and client-centered. Our work is grounded in evidence-based approaches that are proven to support healing and change. Drawing from modalities such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Dialectical Behavioral Therapy, Mindfulness-Based Interventions, the Gottman Method, Somatic Experiencing, Internal Family Systems, and more, we tailor therapy to meet your unique needs.

Whether you are working through trauma, anxiety, depression, life transitions or other concerns, we integrate science-backed strategies to help you move forward in a meaningful way.

Psychiatric Consultation Available

Mental health is complex and for some, a combination of psychotherapy and medication can be more effective than either treatment alone. If a mental health diagnosis or medication management could benefit you, we can facilitate a consultation with a psychiatrist. This service provides a comprehensive, collaborative and holistic approach to your care.

Asking for help is not a sign of weakness; it is a sign of courage.
