Grief Therapists in Nova Scotia

I am a Registered Psychologist and value the innate healing ability we carry inside. I believe my responsibility is to listen deeply and honour the resources and strengths of each person while creating an environment that feels open, warm and non-judgemental. Reaching out for help can be challenging. I have great respect for your journey as you take steps towards making changes in your life.

I'm a registered therapist who offers a compassionate and friendly-style to address mental health challenges. When in session, I aim to create an environment that embraces both deep conversations and moments of shared laughter. My focus is on supporting adults and university students to find pockets of peace in life's chaos, mend strained relationships (be it family, friendship or romantic), heal from past wounds, and find ways to ease the weight of anxiety and depression.

I am passionate about helping my clients develop a heathier self-relationship. Throughout our lives we can accumulate shame and fear, and dismiss emotions and experiences that are challenging to look at. This dismissal of the self can cause inner turmoil, emotional dysregulation, and may keep us feeling stuck in old patterns. I create a safe space for my clients to sit with and process their emotional experiences so that they may live more wholeheartedly, show up for themselves, and show up more fully in their relationships.

Life can be a lot, and we don’t get to skip over the rough parts. It might be an especially stressful time, or old issues and patterns might be holding us back. Sometimes it’s from moving through systems that cause harm. And sometimes we just get tired, and need someone in our corner. It can help to talk to someone who's not directly involved for support, insight, and a safe place to unpack it all. The longer I do this, the more I feel “mental health” isn’t quite the right term… it’s often physical, or spiritual, or cultural. The good news is we can start wherever you are. We can talk, move, go outside, or just feel what’s there.

The harsher the memory, the softer the poem. -pavana reddy. Have you experienced wounding in relationships and find yourself struggling to cope amidst conflict or the aftereffects of trauma or harm? Do you long to love and enjoy yourself and life again (or perhaps for the first time)? Harm can happen in many relationships, including romantic, familial, and with the social world around us. You might be facing triggers, anxiety, depression, feelings of hopelessness, or external barriers to well-being. My hope is to support you in feeling safer, overcoming harsh narratives about yourself, and living a life that feels right for you!

Life can be challenging and sometimes it can be hard to know the steps we need to take to better understand ourselves and live the life we want to live. I work from the perspective that being a human is hard and that we all face struggles throughout our life. While these challenges may be unavoidable, therapy can provide a place to feel seen and help shift your perspective, discover more about yourself, connect with your feelings, and discover meaning from your experiences.
