Maeleen Brown Portrait
Evidence-Based Mental Health Strategy

Establish sustainable resilience to navigate professional demands.

High-demand roles require exceptional emotional and cognitive resilience. Whether you are a student preparing for finals, a lawyer making partner, an executive navigating a complex organizational transition, a banker managing relentless hours, a medical professional with a recent diagnosis, or an overloaded project manager, the strategies that got you there can suddenly break down. This is often triggered when intense responsibilities collide with personal health and life changes - such as becoming a new parent, experiencing major career changes, or adjusting to mental health concerns (e.g. ADHD, chronic pain, anxiety).

As a Mental Health Occupational Therapist, my practice bridges inner wellness with external function. Together, we establish neuroscience-informed strategies designed to stabilize your emotional health, improve your cognitive performance, and sustain effective habits. My ultimate goal is not dependency; it is to equip you with tools and systems to restore you to your meaningful life and personal pursuits.

Executive Function in Daily Life

In high-responsibility roles - from parenting to professions in emergency services, construction, or law - dysfunction rarely looks typical and is often masked. It shows up as severe burnout, imposter syndrome, task paralysis, or sudden performance decline.

Traditional productivity advice assumes good mental health and brain function, which often compounds the shame of professional struggles. We approach you're concerns, such as inattention, disorganization, or overwhelm, to construct individualized systems that allow you to function effectively without "boom-and-bust" productivity.

Frequently Asked Questions

What should clients know about working with you?
I bring a practical, holistic approach for healthy function to our sessions. We work things out together, looking at your internal (mind and body) and your external (environments, tasks, relationships, and daily life). Whether you are navigating a career transition or struggling with concentration, my goal is to collaborate with you to build health, resilience, and robust systems so you can perform, recover, and thrive in your pursuits.
Do you offer free consultation calls?
Yes, I offer a free 15-minute consultation. This provides an opportunity for us to connect over phone or video, discuss your needs, and ensure my approach is the right fit for you before committing.
Are your services covered by insurance?
Yes, as a Registered Occupational Therapist, my services are covered by most extended health benefit plans under "Occupational Therapy", as well as Health Spending Accounts if applicable. Receipts are provided after every session for you to submit for reimbursement. All out-of-pocket expenses are tax deductable. Please check the specifics of your plan to confirm your annual coverage limits.
Do I need an official diagnosis to work with you?
No. Occupational Therapy treats the internal symptoms and external dysfunction, not the label. Whether you have a formal mental health or neurodivergent diagnosis, or are simply experiencing difficulties, I am happy to help.
Where do sessions take place?
My services are delivered remotely via secure Virtual Sessions, allowing me to seamlessly support professionals across Canada. However, I do provided dedicated, in-person meetings (such as for Exposure Therapy and Functional Evaluations) for clients local to Central Alberta, including outdoor walks by Sylvan Lake.
