Certified Sex & Relationship Therapist in Red Deer, Alberta | About Eros Therapeutic
Supporting individuals, couples, and other relationship structures in navigating intimacy, identity, and emotional connection—through safe, evidence-based care.
NICK’S JOURNEY: WHY THIS WORK MATTERS
A word from Nicholas:
“I didn’t come into this work by accident. My own lived experiences showed me how complex it can be to navigate relationships, sexuality, and identity; especially when you feel misunderstood or unseen.
Over time, I realized I wanted to be the kind of therapist I never knew I needed: someone who listens deeply, shows up fully, and respects each person’s path without judgment.
Today, my practice is centered on helping others unpack their stories, feel safer in their relationships and bodies, and build trust, both with others and with themselves.
I work with adults from all backgrounds and orientations. Whether you’re struggling with anxiety, trauma, intimacy, or self-worth. I’m here to support you, not to fix you.
I believe the best therapy happens at the intersection of clinical skill and genuine human connection.”
Here’s what that looks like in practice:
CLINICAL APPROACH & METHODS
Every therapist has a style. At Eros Therapeutic, we work from a framework that blends clinical structure with genuine human connection.
Our process is informed by research, guided by collaboration, and built around your unique needs, not a one-size-fits-all model.
1. Authentic Presence
Our therapists show up as real people, not distant experts. We believe that authenticity builds trust. While maintaining clinical professionalism and healthy boundaries, we bring our full, human selves into the work so that you feel safe, respected, and truly seen.
2. Grounded in Research
Our methods are rooted in well-established, evidence-based frameworks such as Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Cognitive Processing Therapy (CPT), and the Gottman Method for couples. We’re committed to lifelong learning—and we bring that knowledge into session with humility and clarity.
3. Adapted to the Individual
Therapy is never one-size-fits-all. We adapt every session to your needs, experiences, and goals. Whether we’re addressing trauma, sexuality, gender identity, or relationship dynamics, we honor your uniqueness in every step of the process.
4. Affirming & Inclusive
Every part of who you are is welcomed here. We work with adults of all gender identities, sexual orientations, relationship structures, and cultural backgrounds. You will never need to justify who you are in this space.
5. Collaborative & Transparent
You’ll always know what we’re working on and why. We openly share techniques, provide psychoeducation, and invite your feedback—so you feel empowered, not uncertain. This is a partnership, not a prescription.
Whether you’re stepping into therapy for the first time or continuing an ongoing journey, our approach is designed to meet you where you are, and walk with you from there.
We offer both in-person and online sessions.
What We Do
Sex Therapy
Sex therapy offers a supportive space to explore concerns related to desire, arousal, intimacy, or sexual wellbeing. You don’t have to navigate these experiences alone.
Relationship & Couples Counselling
Relationship structures can be complex. Couples counselling provides a structured environment to work through communication issues, disconnection, or conflict — together.
Individual Counselling
Life can be overwhelming at times. Individual counselling gives you space to explore your thoughts, emotions, and experiences — with professional guidance and care.
Gender-Affirming Therapy
Gender-affirming therapy supports individuals exploring or navigating gender identity with respect, affirmation, and informed care.
Trauma-Informed Therapy
Healing from trauma takes time. This therapy helps you process difficult events safely and at your own pace, using proven therapeutic methods.
