About Touchstone:

Individual, Couples & Family Counselling | Edmonton, Alberta

Understanding Emotions. Exploring Relationships. Creating Meaningful Change.
Our emotions influence how we understand ourselves, respond to difficult experiences, make decisions, and relate to others. At times, past experiences, recurring relationship patterns, or overwhelming emotions can leave us feeling stuck, disconnected, or uncertain about how to move forward.

Therapy offers an opportunity to explore these experiences, gain new perspectives, and develop greater understanding of yourself and your relationships.

At Touchstone Counselling, Linda McFalls, Ph.D., LCSW, RSW, brings more than 30 years of clinical experience to counselling and psychotherapy with individuals, couples, and families. Her approach combines advanced therapeutic training, current research, and an appreciation for the complexity of human emotions, relationships, and lived experiences.

How Counselling Can Help:

Individual Counselling

Support for anxiety, depression, trauma, grief and loss, emotional regulation, self-esteem, workplace challenges, relationship difficulties, and life transitions, including separation, divorce, parenting, and retirement.

Couples Counselling

Helping partners understand recurring patterns of conflict, emotional disconnection, communication difficulties, intimacy concerns, betrayal, and challenges rebuilding trust and emotional security.

Family Counselling

Supporting families navigating conflict, changing relationships, parenting challenges, emotional distress, and significant life transitions.

Experience and Advanced Clinical Training

Linda’s clinical approach integrates specialized training in:

Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT/EFIT) — attachment, emotional connection, and relationships.

EMDR — processing trauma and distressing experiences.

Somatic and neuroscience-informed therapies — understanding the relationship between emotions, the nervous system, and bodily responses.

Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) — exploring thoughts, emotions, and behavioural patterns.

Internal Family Systems (IFS)-informed and attachment-based approaches — understanding internal emotional experiences and protective responses.

Additional training in Hakomi, analytical psychology, and expressive therapies further supports an individualized, integrative approach.

A Thoughtful, Individualized Approach

Therapy is not simply about managing symptoms or changing behaviours. It can also involve understanding how experiences, emotions, and relationships have shaped the ways we respond to ourselves and others.

Through thoughtful exploration, emotional processing, and practical therapeutic strategies, counselling can support greater self-awareness, emotional flexibility, improved relationships, and meaningful change.
