Hello, my name is Melanie Fox-Smith. I am a Registered Provisional Psychologist in Alberta
with over 15 years of experience coaching and counselling clients to reach their full potential.
My career was established as a Career Counsellor and grew into a holistic approach where I
counsel you as a whole person within the context of your personal, relational, social and
professional life.
I take a grounded, attachment informed approach rooted in social neurobiology. I have a
particular interest in providing culturally informed counselling on careers, spirituality, grief and
loss, complex and developmental trauma, depression, anxiety, mood disorders and chronic
health conditions. We will work together to create a safe, confidential, and supportive dynamic
that fosters confidence, and greater clarity, enabling you to effect the changes you wish to see.
I offer a warm, empathic counselling presence and maintain a structured and goal-oriented
counselling process.
