Lucienne Henry

Registered Psychologist

You and I are two people sitting together, each an expert in our own lives, and my job is to help you live a full meaningful life, whatever that looks like for you! I offer clinical psychological services in the forms of psychotherapy, psychological assessment (Level C testing and assessment), and group therapies. 

Psychological Assessment 

I offer psychoeducational assessments which include level C testing for ages six and up. I also provide adult assessments for enquiries surrounding ADHD, Intellectual and Adaptive Functioning assessments which may aid in applications for assistance from Persons with Developmental Disabilities (PDD) supports and services, and  Autism Spectrum Disorder Assessments, including adult enquiries. 

Psychotherapeutic Services 
My professional umbrella includes working with individuals, couples, families, children (as young as 4 years old) and adolescents, with concerns ranging from anxiety, depression, ADHD, autism, chronic pain, life transitions, finding meaning, and many other topics. I work from a relational standpoint. I believe that when I am sitting with my clients, we are two people who are both experts in their own lives. 

In my work with adolescent and adult individuals, I use Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) in my practice which focuses on being present, opening up, and doing what matters. In my work with children and families with young children we work with a foundation of play therapy which includes using sandtray, art, games and many more interventions. In my work with families with older children/adolescents and couples, I use Emotion Focused Therapy (EFT) which looks at issues that arise in a couple dynamic not at the fault of either person but as a pattern that has developed in your relationship, that we work to identify and learn to work with.

I also blend in approaches from other methods and theories, such as Play Therapy, Polyvagal Theory, Pain Reprocessing Therapy, Positive Psychology, Solution-Focused Brief Therapy, Person-Centred Therapy, Compassion Focused Therapy, Nature or Eco Therapy, and Attachment Theory. I also try to embody in my work a Two-Eyed Seeing perspective, which honours traditional Indigenous knowledge and teachings with psychological practices. All services that I offer are available in English and are offered in both Lacombe and Red Deer, or online if requested.

A bit about me!
I chose this career because it brings me great joy and purpose to be able to connect with many people and help them on their journey to a more meaningful life. I was born, and raised in Lacombe County, and have a passion for helping my community, including those who live in rural areas. If you are from a small community like me that also means you know that it’s a small world and a small bunch of communities we live in! I assure confidentiality with all my clients, as it is my responsibility as a psychologist! I live on an acreage in rural Lacombe County with my husband, four dogs, two cats, thirty chickens, and horses. I also have multiple gardens, fruit trees, and bushes. I love reading fantasy books, spending time with my fur family gardening or planning my garden in the winter!
