Stephanie Robson
MSW, RSW, CPT, TITC-CT Therapist
I am Stephanie, a licensed Therapist in Calgary.
With over 23 years of experience, I am a licensed therapist registered with the Alberta College of Social Workers, the Canadian Association for Play Therapy and the Alberta Equestrian Federation. My private practice offers services to clients of all ages and abilities with a focus on trauma and mental health. I specialize in creating a collaborative and supportive environment for clients to explore their own individualized path to growth.
Dragonfly Therapeutics also offers Equine Partnered Counselling Services. Equine Partnered Psychotherapy (EPP) and Equine Partnered Play Therapy (EPPT) sessions create opportunities for participants to work toward client-identified therapeutic goals, while working alongside an equine partner. No horseback riding is involved in EPP or EPPT sessions.

My Approach & Services
Dragonfly Therapeutics is a private counselling practice that works with people of various ages and abilities. A principle value is working collaboratively with clients in an encouraging & supportive environment that enables participants to maximize their individual therapeutic experience. Our counselling approach offers both inner-city office services as well as equine-partnered therapeutic services in a rural setting, located just outside Calgary.
As the only therapist in Canada trained in offering Equine Partnered Play Therapy, I have completed specialized training and consultations with the therapist who developed this modality, along with training as an equine-assisted learning facilitator, a Master’s degree in Social Work, and hold additional designations as a Certified Play Therapist and a Clinical Traumatologist.
