My name is Matthew Capowski and I am a therapist located in Edmonton, Alberta, Canada that also provides services virtually. I hold a degree in psychology from the University of Alberta (2004) and I am a member of the East West Psychology practice. I also serve as the executive director of the David Bohm Society. I have worked in the human services fields for two decades.
Therapeutic Services
My approach to therapy is rooted in deep inquiry, presence, direct perception, and the exploration of consciousness. Drawing from the insights of David Bohm and Jiddu Krishnamurti, I view self-knowledge and dialogue as a space of transformation—where thought is questioned, conditioning is seen for what it is, and awareness itself becomes the key to freedom.
Influenced by Transpersonal Psychology, I recognize that healing goes beyond symptom relief; it is an unfolding process that reconnects us to the deeper dimensions of who and what we are. Through self-inquiry and integrative practices, I support individuals in moving beyond limiting patterns, unresolved emotions, and false identifications, toward a more expansive and authentic experience of life.
Inspired by Advaita Vedanta, I see suffering as arising from misidentification—with thoughts, with the past, with the transient. My work invites clients into a space of stillness, where they can directly encounter the deeper awareness that is already whole, free, and untouched by psychological conflict.
While there absolutely is a place techniques and methods, I facilitate a space of listening, reflection, and radical honesty—where insight can emerge naturally, and transformation happens not as a forced effort but as a deep shift in perception.
If you are drawn to self-inquiry, inner freedom, and a holistic approach to psychological well-being, I welcome you to explore this journey with me.
As a practitioner of Ayurveda I also consider additional factors beyond what a conventional therapist looks at. Living in harmony with the rhythms of nature and engaging in an appropriate daily routine is essential for both physical and mental health.
My intention is to work myself out of a job as soon as is possible. There are some things that another person can do for you and point out to you, but at the end of the day it will be the attention you give that determines the outcome.
