Donna McLean
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, BA Honours (Psychology), MSW, RSW
Chronic pain or illness can feel limiting , making it hard to find pleasure in life. I know, having lived with a chronic illness for decades. I can travel with you as you navigate these challenges, and offer tools for managing some of the psychological struggle that goes along with the physical struggle; struggles like "why me", the stress and pain of trying to get through the day, feeling different from others, and the uncertainty and helplessness you may feel. There are tools like grounding, mindfulness and acceptance I can help you with, and we can do work with past experiences that may be contributing to some of your present psychological suffering.

I have supported people with Chronic Pain and Illness for the last 9 years. I have also lived with someone who meets both of these criteria for the last 16 years. It is very prevalent amongst many populations. I work on the specific presentations of Chronic Pain and Illness brought forth and collaboratively design customized strategies to support individuals living their best lives in alignment with their values.

Aaron Chin
Licensed Mental Health Counsellor, MA, RCC
When working with chronic pain or illness, I like to start with some mindfulness around the issue to gain a deeper understanding of the experience, from here there are many options, and I rely of the client's wisdom to guide me.

Dartmouth sits across the harbour from Halifax, a proudly distinct community of lakes and working-class neighbourhoods now part of the regional municipality, with naval families and a growing young-professional presence. Mental health needs include military family stress, economic transition in older neighbourhoods, and Atlantic Canada's long-winter seasonal weight. Nova Scotia Health and Dartmouth General anchor public care, with Halifax's provider community across the bridges.
