Dr. Margaret Penfold, C. Psych.

“Hello there! I am excited to have this opportunity to continue to serve my community and to join this multi-disciplinary clinic. It is my honour and pleasure to be able to offer you time and hold space with you for this part of your journey.   

I believe that setting the stage for a collaborative therapeutic relationship and honouring the client as the expert about their life and challenges are core pieces of working effectively in psychotherapy. I blend this client centered approach with Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) and Cognitive Behavior Therapy (CBT) approaches, which are applicable to many of the common difficulties that lead people to seek psychological services.  

I have over ten years of experience working with clients across adults aged 18 to 65 years with a range of mental health, physical health, and adjustment difficulties in the public health system and private practice settings. My specific areas of experience and expertise include adjustment concerns (e.g., career and life changes, chronic illness, etc.), anxiety (generalized anxiety, panic attacks, phobias, social anxiety), depression, emotional dysregulation, grief, insomnia, nightmares, obsessive compulsive disorder, posttraumatic stress disorder, and substance use problems. 

I am a member of the following professional associations: Association for Contextual Behavioral Science, Canadian Psychological Association, and Manitoba Psychological Society. 

I am currently registered as a psychologist with the Psychological Association of Manitoba.” 

Dr. Penfold has appointments available for individuals aged 18 to 65 at our Corydon Avenue location.
