Meet Chloe Machielse, Registered Psychologist
Warm, collaborative, and genuinely affirming. Get to know the psychologist behind Sonder Counselling Group.

Hi, my name is Chloe Machielse and I am a Registered Psychologist, regulated by the College of Alberta Psychologists. I obtained a Bachelor of Health Sciences in Addictions Counselling with Distinction from the University of Lethbridge and a Master's degree in Counselling from City University of Seattle with Honours.
I have a particular interest in supporting young adults, and to Gen Z, I see you. I work with loss and grief related concerns, sexuality and gender exploration, anxiety, life transitions, and trauma. While supporting young adults is a passion of mine, I enjoy working with people of all ages. I also see couples for premarital and pre emptive counselling, and I provide inclusive counselling services for 2SLGBTQIA+, polyamorous, and other diverse relationship structures.
My practice is grounded in attachment based and trauma informed perspectives. I integrate approaches such as cognitive behavioural therapy, emotion focused therapy, Dialectical Behaviour Therapy, and mindfulness based interventions to best meet each client's needs. I aim to build authentic connections by fostering a safe, compassionate, and non judgmental space where you feel deeply understood.
Together we can explore your challenges, process your experiences, and develop coping strategies that support healing, growth, and a greater sense of well being. My goal is to guide you toward a life that feels meaningful, balanced, peaceful, and aligned with your values.
