Meet Alora

 I truly believe that one of the most important factors that determines therapeutic success  is a strong therapeutic alliance- as such, I encourage everyone to come as you are and be your  authentic self and I will do the same. A goal of mine is to provide a safe space, free of  judgement, where we can work together to help reach your personal goals! I like to tailor my  approach to each individual and incorporate a lot of collaboration to ensure that each client’s  goals and intents are heard and addressed in ways that best suit them. 

​

I tend to use more of an informal approach; we deal with a lot of serious and challenging  themes and I find it can be helpful and easier for clients to open up in a more relaxed environment. Some things you can expect from our sessions would be empathy, authenticity  and of course, laughter- it's good for the soul! 

​

I work with teens and adults for a variety of concerns, such as stress management and  burnout, depression, trauma, anxiety, and relationship management. I also provide ADHD  assessments for children six years of age and older, adolescents and adults. I incorporate  themes of mindfulness, solution-focused therapy, cognitive behavioural therapy and  acceptance and commitment therapy. 

​

I’m a small town girl, born and raised in Medicine Hat, who moved to the big city originally to  complete my undergraduate degree. I fell in love with the city and was lucky enough to find my person here, so Edmonton is my forever home! I love to travel and I’m a huge horror movie and true crime podcast aficionado. My partner and I were that couple that got a puppy during COVID, so much of my free time is spent throwing a tennis ball and going for walks! 

Alora Kyllo

I received my Bachelors Degree in Psychology from the University of Alberta and my Master’s  Degree in Counselling Psychology from Yorkville University. I am a Registered Provisional Psychologist with the College of Alberta Psychologists. 

Wondering About ADHD?

Alora provides competitively priced neuropsychological assessments to determine the presence (or absence) of adhd in individuals age 6 and above.

The greatest piece of advice I've received:

My mom always told me to strive to do my best, never sell myself  short, and always trust my gut.

Something on my bucket list:

I love to travel and I’ve never been to Europe, so I would love to do a Euro Trip with my boyfriend and experience the history and culture, and of course, the  wine! 

My top 3 values:

Trust

Authenticity

Empathy

If I was an animal I'd be...

This is a surprisingly difficult question! I think I would be  a monkey - they are incredibly cute, live in warm, jungly environments and have hilarious  personalities. 

I have a day totally to myself, with no obligations. Where would you find me?

You would  definitely find me on a beach reading a book in the sun, throwing around the football and  having a picnic with my boyfriend and puppy! 

Besides my work, a special skill of mine:

I’m a huge theatre nerd- I’ve seen more  Broadway shows than I can count and I play the piano and sing myself. I used to do a bunch of  community theatre in my hometown.
