Eric Kang, Registered Psychologist, Vitam Mind Psychology, Cochrane Alberta

  • The human mind is the most complex formation of matter that we know of in the universe and I am guided by mine and its infinite curiosity to better understand the world around me as well as the people I encounter on my journey.

    Being a psychologist is a wonderful way for me to walk alongside many wonderful and complex people as we figure what it means to be human together. I really enjoy doing this work as it is an honor for me to be invited into the stories and journeys of those that I work with.

  • My journey in mental health has equipped me with the skills and insight to delve deep into understanding the root causes of symptomology. My experience as a neurofeedback technician provided invaluable insights into the intricate functioning of the brain and its profound impact on our perception of the world.

    Over time, my therapeutic approach has evolved into an eclectic blend, drawing from diverse psychological modalities such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT), Solution-Focused Brief Therapy, and Motivational Interviewing. Additionally, I integrate my understanding of human biological processes including the gut-brain axis, nutritional science, and neurophysiology. I also incorporate elements from philosophy and evolutionary psychology to enrich my approach.

    Utilizing a person-centered and humanistic approach, I strive to uncover the innate strengths within each individual I work with. My ultimate goal is to facilitate positive changes and promote growth in various aspects of each person’s life, fostering a path towards healing and transformation.
