Meet Preeti Rakhra 

I am a Registered Provisional Psychologist at Airdrie Counselling Centre, dedicated to supporting adults (18+) who are navigating challenges such as ADHD, anxiety, depression, stress, trauma, OCD, grief, and major life transitions. I aim to create a safe, non-judgmental, and collaborative environment where clients feel heard, respected, and empowered to make meaningful and lasting changes.

I am currently completing my Dissertation (Psy.D) in my Doctorate Clinical Psychology program, and remain committed to ongoing learning and the use of evidence-based practices. I am certified in ADHD and incorporate established therapeutic approaches, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Internal Family Systems (IFS), and trauma-informed care. My approach is client-centered and integrative, allowing me to tailor treatment to each individual’s unique needs, values, and goals while regularly monitoring progress to support growth and lasting change.

I also provide culturally responsive care to immigrants, newcomers, and refugees, recognizing the importance of cultural identity, lived experience, and personal values in shaping mental health. My approach emphasizes respect, inclusivity, and sensitivity to each individual’s background.

Seeking psychological support can feel like a significant step, and I am here to support you in working toward meaningful and sustainable change.
