Aspire Psychological Services: How it all Started!

It all Started with Dawn

Aspire Psychological Services (APS) started out as a one woman show. Dawn Marie Chalas is the founder and current owner of APS. APS was a force behind the scenes of many programs within the Spruce Grove area, which included the PCN Obesity Clinic, FCSS Counselling Services, and ZenDen. Before APS included a team of professionals, there was only Dawn! Dawn is experienced in trauma-related issues, obesity-related counselling, anxiety, and depression. Dawn has always been committed to clients and has a strong sense of community. APS began to grow when the demand for Dawn’s services became so great that she recognized the potential for being more involved in the community and to be able to provide more services to those in need. Therefore, she began to take on interns within her counselling services program.

Then There Were Three...

There were many great interns that helped with the development of programs and provided needed services as part of their placement. APS is proud as they too move towards their educational and occupational goals. In 2016, two interns started with APS, Sheila and Vanessa, who changed things for Dawn, because - for the first time - the interns weren’t going to leave after their practicum; no, these two interns were determined to stay! Vanessa and Sheila completed their Provisional hours with Dawn and committed to their roles within the company. Sheila has become specialized in children’s anxiety and depression, couples therapy, and psychoeducational assessments. Vanessa focuses on adult anxiety disorders, especially with men, weight and body image issues, and anger management in both youth and adults.

Along Came a Dog...

Somewhere in between Dawn working alone and Sheila and Vanessa staying, Garnet entered the equation. Garnet is a certified service dog who had once assisted a lovely man who required him for his ability to live and complete activities of daily living. Unfortunately, due to medical issues, Garnet was left without his handler and the agency decided that APS could benefit from his services for our amazing clients. Dawn hiked 309 kilometres across England to raise money for his agency, Dogs with Wings. Garnet has embedded himself in the heart of APS and, along with the beautiful pictures of Dawn’s hike, he is often the first face that new client’s will see when entering the office.

Now There Are...

At this moment, APS consists of Dawn, Sheila, Vanessa (yes, they still haven't left), Garnet and a great mix of Registered Psychologists, Provisional Psychologists, Psychology Interns, and an amazing Office Manager! Every team member brings their own level of expertise, specialized knowledge, and unique skills to APS!

Our Team is ever expanding - along with our locations! We were happy to open up a location in Onoway and provide services to clients in the Lac St. Anne County.

APS continues to grow and expand to meet the needs of those in the amazing place in which we live. We are committed to assisting the community and those that live in it.
