Hello there. I commend you on taking this first hard step for yourself or your child. I’m Abrielle (Abby) Heck and I get how scary this can all be. Over the last 16 years I’ve had the honour of supporting & collaborating with children, adolescents, young adults and caregivers. I have a passion in demystifying mental health, and helping families struggling with emotional regulation, anxiety, tough life events & transitions and thriving with neurodiversity such as ADHD. I love to get creative and use art, toys and play to meet kids and adolescents where they’re at.
I am a Registered Social Worker with the Alberta College of Social Workers with my Masters of Clinical Social Work, specializing in infant, early childhood, school-aged and adolescent mental health. I utilize an Attachment Theory lens to walk alongside families in acknowledging their past and instilling hope for the future.
I have training and experience in Parent-Child Attachment Relationships, Trauma-Focused Cognitive-Behavioural Therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Emotion Focused Therapy, Play and Art interventions and I am a Certified Circle of Security Facilitator.
