Kevin Jones
Psychologist, MACP
My approach to supporting older adults focuses on creating a respectful, patient, and collaborative environment where clients feel truly heard and valued. I help individuals navigate the emotional and practical challenges that can arise later in life—such as changes in health, mobility, relationships, identity, or independence—while offering tools to strengthen coping skills and emotional well-being. I work to understand each person’s history, strengths, and current needs, using evidence-informed strategies to reduce stress, improve mood, and support adaptation to life transitions. My goal is to honour each client’s lived experience while helping them maintain dignity, purpose, and connection as they move through this stage of life.

Mia Klassen
Licensed Professional Counsellor, MPCC #3875, CT #2438, LSCC
Sometimes you don't fit neatly into a category—you're just struggling, hurting, or feeling stuck, and you need someone who genuinely listens. Whatever brings you to therapy, you'll find understanding without judgment, validation without dismissal, and encouragement without empty platitudes. Drawing on years of training and diverse clinical experience, I adapt to what you need most: a compassionate witness, practical tools, deeper exploration, or all of the above. Your concerns matter, your pace is respected, and your story deserves to be heard fully. Whether your challenge is specific or you're simply seeking clarity and relief, I'm here to help you find your way forward.

Halifax is Atlantic Canada's largest city and a hub for universities, the military, and ocean-tech industries, creating a therapy community serving students, naval personnel, and knowledge workers navigating the pressures of high-achieving careers in a smaller city. Dalhousie University and Canadian Forces Base Halifax generate distinct demand for therapists who specialize in academic stress, military trauma, and the particular challenges of military family life. Nova Scotia Health provides public mental health services, with a private therapy community serving the South End, Bedford, and Dartmouth. Halifax's relatively small size means specialist therapist availability can be limited in some areas, and telehealth has become especially important for accessing care across Atlantic Canada.
