Narrative therapists in Nova Scotia, Canada CA

I believe that healing is possible for everyone, and it is an honor to be part of your journey towards personal growth and well-being. My name is Michelle, and I am a dedicated therapist specializing in ADHD, trauma, PTSD, panic attacks, anxiety, and depression. I understand firsthand the impact that these conditions can have on your daily life, relationships, and overall sense of self. Through my own experiences and professional training, I have developed a deep empathy and understanding of the challenges you face. My goal is to provide you with a safe, compassionate space where you can explore your emotions, heal from past traumas, and develop effective strategies for managing your symptoms. In our sessions, I emphasize a personalized approach that respects your unique experiences, strengths, and goals. Together, we will delve into the underlying factors contributing to your difficulties, working collaboratively to develop strategies that address both immediate concerns and long-term well-being. I am committed to utilizing evidence-based therapies tailored to your needs, such as cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT), trauma-focused therapy, and mindfulness techniques. My ultimate objective is to empower you to reclaim control over your life and embrace a sense of hope, resilience, and fulfillment. I believe in your innate capacity to heal, and I will provide unwavering support as we navigate the ups and downs of your therapeutic journey. I also recognize that life can be hectic and finding time for therapy can be challenging. That's why I offer both in person as well as flexible online sessions, allowing you to prioritize your mental health without sacrificing your other responsibilities. You can receive the care you need from the comfort and privacy of your own home, eliminating barriers and making therapy accessible and convenient for you. I invite you to take the courageous step towards a brighter future by reaching out for a confidential consultation. Together, we will embark on a transformative path towards personal growth, emotional well-being, and a life that is not defined by your struggles. Remember, you are not alone. I am here to walk alongside you, providing guidance, understanding, and unwavering support. Let's embark on this transformative journey together. Warm regards, Michelle Bourque Licensed provisional psychologist specializing in ADHD, trauma, PTSD, panic attacks, anxiety, and depression"  

We’re passionate about our work. We're constantly engaging in professional development to ensure we’re the best therapists we can be. We meet regularly to exchange ideas, and even have a book club. Our team members hold several additional certifications treating Clinical Trauma, ADHD, and are trained in EMDR. We work with clients dealing with a number of struggles and we're here to help. The research has consistently shown the importance of good fit for successful counselling. That's why we start with a consult with the Clinical Director, followed by a consult with 1-2 of our therapists to empower you to have a say in who you work with. You will not be matched off a spreadsheet or by the next available appointment. We're a counsellor-led practice. I’ll be uncomfortably blunt with you on this: there are a lot of practices out there run by people who know nothing about counselling, hiring subcontractors at every step, trying to maximize how much they can charge the client, and minimize how much they pay the counsellor. These environments inhibit counsellor growth, may have high turnover, and usually do not deliver the quality of care you deserve. It’s just the 4 of us and a monthly bookkeeper. Since we’re virtual, we pass the savings on to you where possible. We do not have a large ad budget, relying on the quality of work we do leading to word of mouth referrals.
