Dr. Laura Friesen, Registered Doctoral Psychologist
Meet the Psychologist & Practice Owner
Welcome! I am the director and psychologist at Warrior’s Way Psychological Services Inc. I have a Ph.D. in Counselling Psychology from the University of Alberta. I have been training in clinical and counselling psychology since 2010 and have worked in outpatient, inpatient, community, and private settings. I am licensed in Yukon, Alberta, and in the Northwest Territories, Canada. While the title of “Doctor” represents years of specialization, therapy is in the business of relationships so I welcome you to just call me Laura.
I currently have a few remaining spots for new clients. At this time, my couples and family slots are full and I am only accepting new individual clients.
Please feel free to contact me at 587.599.5649 or laurafriesen.warriorsway@gmail.com to set up a free 15-minute phone consultation. I try to respond to messages within two business days. Please check your spam folder as responses can end up there.
My licenses and jurisdictional agreements allow me to work only with clients physically located in Alberta, Northwest Territories, Yukon, Nunavut, Nova Scotia, New Brunswick, and Quebec.
I PROVIDE VIRTUAL SERVICES ONLY FROM A PRIVATE SECURE PROFESSIONAL OFFICE SPACE. Check out the images below for a peek into my office space.
I work with various concerns including trauma, anxiety, depression, boundaries, grief, relationship problems, and more by taking an integrated whole person, and strength-based approach. To learn more about the different approaches I take, head over the Approaches tab.

Welcome to the doc’s office: where professionalism meets personality.
-
While my office could say "clinic" or "office," I'm in the "business of relationships" (Malone, 2011) and for me, that means being a genuine human with likes and interests.

A peek inside this private space where the time is yours and what you share is confidential.

One of my favourite book recommendations and a blanket - a great combo!
