Charlene Cullen, Registered Psychologist My name is Charlene Cullen and I am a Registered Psychologist in Red Deer, Alberta. I provide an attachment based developmental approach in my work with children, adolescents, and families and I like to take into account the 'whole' person (mental, emotional, spiritual, physiological) when working with individuals. Art with Impact does a great job capturing and sharing the impact of mental health on individual functioning, in an effort to raise awareness, decrease stigma, and encourage supports for individuals who are struggling.
