Our Approach

At Strides Psychological & Behavioural Services, we believe in celebrating people for who they are and in supporting them so that they can find happiness, fulfillment, and peace.

 

We believe we have a responsibility to help to create an inclusive community. Our approach is centred around improving quality of life for our clients and their loved ones.

 

We pride ourselves in our ability to accurately assess our clients’ strengths and any obstacles that may be in their way, and in our compassionate and practical approach to addressing client concerns.

We would like to acknowledge that we are on treaty 6 territory, the traditional lands of the Cree, Saulteaux, Blackfoot, Metis, Dene, and Nakota Sioux peoples. We recognize and respect their enduring connection to this land, and we are grateful to live and work here.

Why Strides?

The name “Strides” was inspired by a technique used in track and field during training sessions.


It refers to running a relatively short distance at a controlled, fast pace, focusing on smooth and efficient leg movement, proper posture, and full range strides. These are designed to help improve running mechanics and increase acceleration and speed.


We believe that this technique serves as a powerful metaphor for the approach we take to helping our clients. Just like in track, the strides we take with our clients are strategic and practical and are designed to make life easier.
