Female Therapists in Annapolis Royal, NS

I believe that everyone has inner wisdom which can lead them towards healing. Can I help you learn to trust yourself enough to make space for your pain, shame, grief, sadness, joy, and love to be felt and explored? By being curious about your resistance to feeling, we can process and digest it. I am trained as a somatic, relational, and trauma therapist, and I can help you understand the unique ways you learned to resist or avoid parts of yourself as a way of protection. I believe that human connection is an essential part of the healing process and I prioritize my role as a human first and as a therapist second.

Accepting new clients. Reaching out for help can be overwhelming and especially difficult when you are searching for support to understand, process and heal from trauma.

I consider myself to be an eclectic practitioner. I employ many different therapeutic approaches including: Narrative, CBT, Solution Focused, Trauma Informed therapies, Mindfulness practices, ACT and Behavioural Modification strategies. I tend to work primarily from a Narrative Therapy approach, which is an approach to counselling that seeks to be respectful and non-blaming. It centres the client as the expert in their own lives and views problems as separate from the client themselves. Narrative Therapists assume clients have many skills, competencies, beliefs, values, commitments and abilities that will assist them in reducing the influence of problems in their own lives.

We support you with individual & group perinatal counselling. There’s so much joy and wonder as you prepare to bring your new baby home. But the truth is, it’s not always bubbly feelings for everyone. From steep swings in hormones, fatigue, physical & lifestyle changes, and serious shifts in your relationships, it can take a real toll on your mental wellbeing. Your mental health from trying to conceive through your pregnancy and postpartum period can be met with resistance as you enter into many unknowns and while many folks experience feelings of excitement during this time, feelings of anxiety or depression may also be prevalent.

Do you need someone to talk to that can help you to process feelings and thoughts, help you identify skills for coping, and build on your inner strengths?
