Ashleigh Yule, PhD
Registered Psychologist
Hi! My name is Ashleigh Yule and I am a registered psychologist specializing in child and adolescent mental health. I provide counselling, assessment, and consultation services for children, adolescents, and their families. I also provide professional development around general mental health and specific challenges of childhood and adolescence (e.g., anxiety, depression, behaviour, autism spectrum, gender creativity, and LGBTQ+ issues).
I have a PhD in School and Applied Child Psychology from the University of Calgary, where I am a member of the Autism Spectrum Education, Research, and Training (ASERT) group. I am a member of a number of psychological associations, including the Canadian Psychological Association (CPA), the Canadian Association of School Psychologists (CASP), and the Psychologists’ Association of Alberta (PAA).
I am also a member of the World Professional Association for Transgender Health (WPATH), the Canadian Professional Association for Transgender Health (CPATH), and I have specific training to work with LGBTQ+ youth and their families. My research interests include fostering safe and inclusive school environments for LGBTQ+ students, enhancing social supports for children and teens, and deepening our understanding of gender diversity in the autism spectrum.
