Savannah Beckman - Howatt
Hello! I am Savannah Beckman, a Registered Psychologist. I was drawn to the psychology field after my years of working with teenagers in a mentorship setting. Through this work, I realized how important it was to remind others of their worth and purpose. This is what drives my work today. You are important. You matter!
I view therapy as a team effort! Together, you and I will work to explore emotions, feelings, and situations. I work from a humanistic perspective, believing that you are the expert of your own experience and your own world. I use emotion focused therapy, emotion focused family therapy, and acceptance and commitment therapy in my work.
I work with families, couples, children (age 3+), adolescents, and adults in many different areas of life. I am trained in Gottman methods, and am a Therapeutic Play Practitioner to work specifically with couples and children. I can work alongside eating disorders, depression, anxiety, and a variety of interpersonal concerns. I acknowledge that every one’s journey is unique, and hold space for every story that walks through my office doors.
Personally, I live with my amazing husband, and we love to be with people! You can find us camping, hiking, or spending time with our families. I cannot wait to meet you!

I am a Registered Provisional Psychologist with the College of Alberta Psychologists with a Master of Arts in Counselling Psychology from Yorkville University. I have nearly two decades of experience working with families in the non-profit sector, and am here to help explore how attachment and family dynamics impact your current relationship with yourself, and with others.
I use a humanistic, emotion-focused approach to work with you to navigate your challenges and to uncover self-compassion and empowerment that leads to meaningful healing and growth. I specialize in men’s mental health and issues related to depression, anxiety, relationship difficulties, parenting challenges, divorce, and co-parenting. I work with individuals (age 13+), couples, and families of all backgrounds, cultures, religious affiliations, sexual orientations, and gender identities.
As an important part of my own mental health and well-being, I spend as much time as I can outside and I love to run in beautiful places. I am also a proud parent to three teenagers and am even prouder of how often we laugh together, even if they also sometimes roll their eyes at me.
