Kevin Jones
Psychologist, MACP
Kevin’s path to becoming a therapist wasn’t a straight line—it was a discovery of who he truly is and how he wants to contribute to the world. He initially followed the direction his parents encouraged, completing an undergraduate degree in psychology before moving into law. As a lawyer in a full-service firm, he found himself drawn not to the adversarial side of the work, but to the problem-solving, collaboration, and human connection that naturally unfolded when helping clients navigate difficult decisions.
Over time, Kevin realized that the parts of law he loved most—listening, understanding, and working together toward solutions—were exactly the pieces that aligned with his values and strengths. He began to ask himself how can I make this the whole job? That question ultimately led him back to psychology, where a collaborative, solution-focused approach could become the foundation of his work. Therapy, he realized, was where he could fully lean into who he is: calm, thoughtful, curious, and deeply oriented toward helping people move forward with clarity.
Kevin’s shift into couples counselling grew naturally out of his experience in divorce law. He often saw relationships break down not because of a lack of love, but because communication had eroded long before either partner sought help. Witnessing this was disheartening—it highlighted how many couples were struggling without support and how preventable many of those ruptures could have been.
As a therapist, Kevin now has the opportunity to be on the other side of that process. Couples counselling allows him to help partners strengthen communication, rebuild trust, and rediscover connection before the relationship reaches a breaking point. It’s meaningful work that aligns with both his professional insight and his personal desire to help people stay connected rather than fall apart.
Today, Kevin brings the best of both worlds—his background in psychology and his experience in law—into a grounded, practical, and deeply human therapeutic style. He is committed to creating a space where individuals and couples can understand themselves, improve their relationships, and navigate life’s complexities with confidence.

Alison McKnight
Life Coach, ADHD Coach
I’m a trauma-informed coach who supports ADHDers move forward from a space of shame, overwhelm, and people-pleasing to a more grounded connection with themselves and others. In my work, I weave together nervous-system regulation, body-based awareness, and practical tools for communication, boundaries, and executive functioning. I offer a warm, collaborative, and non-judgmental space where I meet you where you’re at, honour your pacing, and support you in exploring small, sustainable shifts that create meaningful change.

Melanie Brooks
Pre-Licensed Professional, MACP Student - Associate Therapist
I believe people are often more resilient than they realize. If you're struggling with anxiety, depression, self-image issues, loss or grief, or big life changes, let's talk. We can meet in a collaborative, non-judgmental space where you can show up in whatever way feels comfortable to you. If you're not sure about therapy, you can give it a try without worrying if you need to commit. Let's give you a chance to see if it feels right for you.
Whether you're experiencing high-pressure situations, stress, burnout, relationship challenges, and personal setbacks. I have also worked closely with neurodivergent individuals who often feel misunderstood or unsupported by the world around them. Even people who are finding that life is just hard also need someone to hear them out. It can feel powerful when you're heard, understood, and supported - this is my goal when working with individuals and couples.

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.
