Female Therapists in Baddeck, NS

I believe in the importance of understanding, trust, connection & belonging in the therapeutic relationship as the place where change can begin. Are you experiencing OCD and Anxiety and just feeling stuck. Are you feeling tired and exhausted of doubt controlling your life? Feeling as if your trapped in the cycle of intrusive thoughts and compulsions that when you finally have some relief, OCD is right back it again. Have you ever wished you had a remote control or tools where you could just turn down the noise. You don't have to face OCD alone, remember OCD wants you for itself, and its time to start to breaking OCD rules.

Accepting New Clients - Our life journey can be challenging! If you're experiencing difficulties in your life, I would very much like to support you on your journey to healing. I have over 18 years experience supporting individuals develop strategies to manage challenges, including eating disorders, anxiety, OCD, depression, stress, relationship issues, academic issues, grief, sexualized violence, domestic violence, etc. I am a Registered Counselling Therapist with the Nova Scotia College of Counselling Therapists and a Certified Canadian Counselling Therapist with the Canadian Counselling and Psychotherapy Association.

It is a beautiful experience to see people able to work through their trauma, set boundaries, learn healthy coping strategies and move on to a more peaceful, productive life. Therapy is more that just chatting, we will set goals and apply best practices to help you see the those goals reached. I offer a trauma informed lens with you and your well being the priority.

I work collaboratively with clients (age 13+) experiencing difficulties related to their mental health (anxiety, depression), grief and loss from the death of a loved one or significant life transitions, (dis)Ability and neurodivergence, burnout or strain from caregiving (family, parenting) or as a professional helper; body and self-image issues; & reproductive health (fertility, postpartum depression and anxiety, & abortion). I have extensive, specialized experience working with individuals and their loved ones affected by acquired brain injuries (stroke, TBI, etc.). I am also a registered Circle of Security Parent Facilitator.

Life is often difficult and trying to navigate challenges alone can seem impossible. I offer a supportive and safe space to explore both personal and professional issues. My approach is compassionate and person-centred and I draw on 25 years experience in the counselling field where I have practiced as a counsellor and also taught in a master’s level counselling program at the university level. We will work together to create a new understanding of your life circumstances as we strive to achieve your counselling goals.

You know, life is certainly not easy given the many worries, stresses, and losses in our world today. With all the demands and stress placed on peoples’ time and energy these days, even the strongest person needs a helping and supportive hand. Trying to balance life, and feeling like you constantly have to show up for others, is exhausting - leaving no time and energy to nurture your own needs. You are not alone! I understand that people are unique and therefore attune therapy to meet you where you are.

Do you spend much or all of the time feeling overwhelmed and over-stimulated? If so, you are not alone. Research suggests that roughly 15-20% of the population is highly sensitive. Highly Sensitive People (HSP) tend to process information more thoroughly than others, which can be a survival advantage but also lead to feeling overwhelmed. They also tend to be empathic, easily overstimulated by noise and smell, attuned to subtle environmental cues, and require more “downtime” than other people. If this sounds like you, you have come to the right place.

If you find yourself struggling with aspects of your life and feeling overwhelmed with how to cope, I believe that therapy could be a beneficial experience for you. Many people experience symptoms of depression, anxiety, feelings of hopelessness, or struggle with things like relationships or coping with stress and trauma, and aren't sure where to start. I provide therapy to adults (19+) who are looking to make changes and learn new skills to start a more positive and healthy life.

I am here to assist you in improving your mental health. For the last decade, my clinical background has been primarily trauma informed and crisis based. I offer counselling for PTSD; mainly DBT, CBT and soon to be EMDR (October 2024). I take a strengths-based approach in developing healthy coping skills for overcoming life’s everyday struggles. Counselling with me is relaxed but purposeful as we work towards your goals in a professional and confidential manner.

I am a Registered Counselling Therapist, licensed through NSCCT and CCPA. I am also a certified Master ART (Accelerated Resolution Therapy) Practitioner. If you are trying to make changes in your life that are just too much on your own, please give yourself a chance and try at least one session. Even my free intake might help guide you in the direction you need. Perhaps you don't know what you want or need. Sometimes just talking things out in a private setting with a caring and qualified listener can help. I hope you find the courage to take the first step. You have nothing to lose but worries and possibly past trauma.

Hello and Welcome! My name is Tiffany. I believe in a whole-person approach to therapy, focusing on individual experience through a trauma-informed lens. I will offer guidance and support as you navigate your life story, showing up authentically with integrity, empathy, honesty, and gentleness. I trust in the bodies capacity to heal and achieve a state of balance and 'wellness', and that interconnection and community are an integral part of this healing.

With a warm & genuine approach, the focus is always on ensuring you feel heard, respected, safe & valued within a space of non-judgment. Sometimes a good laugh and some added humour can help as well. Trauma care is here and statistics show that most of us have experienced some form. Sometimes, we don't even realize what is troubling us, but not always. So much human suffering can be treated with a trauma-informed and EMDR-trained therapist.

Do you feel stuck, lost or anxious in your career? Want to weigh your options or get ahead/change jobs? Despite societal pressure to know exactly what you "should" do, many adults still struggle with this big life question. I want to help you better understand where you've come from and how you hope to experience your future. Do you want to feel valued, supported, and part of a team? Would you rather be independent and free with a job full of adventure? I'll help you feel clear about your purpose, what you want & ultimately be guided by your values, interests, natural abilities and life experience. We'll unpack everything.

Life can be challenging and stressful at times. Therapy can be a place to sort out distressing emotions, thoughts, and situations that are interfering with the quality of your life. I am passionate about working with people to support them in making changes, setting goals for themselves and achieving them, and becoming unstuck from thoughts and behaviors that no longer serve them.

My ideal client is someone who is wanting to feel heard and understood. Each client has their own array of unique experiences and it is therefore the ultimate goal to better understand the self and interactions with others and the world around them. Once this is achieved we can together facilitate change through new perspectives.

I am an Art Therapist who is passionate about helping adults navigate complex issues using the creative process. I offer individual and group Art Therapy sessions for those who are seeking mental health support that differs from talk therapy. Using a person centred and strength based approach, I strive to create a safe space where clients can reconnect to dormant parts of themselves and find meaning and joy through art making. I have practiced art therapy with diverse populations in a wide range of settings such as; inpatient mental health settings, outpatient oncology, long term care homes, and weekend holistic retreats.

I'm a Clinical Therapist specializing in working with youth, young adults/students, & adults who may need support with substance use or mental health concerns like anxiety, depression, ADHD, trauma, anger, & managing intense emotions or stress. Therapy can help you understand yourself & your environment in a different way by gaining new perspectives. We can work together to explore new ways of thinking & doing to help you leave behind what doesn’t serve you & keeps you feeling stuck. I’m accepting self-referrals for those aged 14-40 & will happily consider those over 40 on an individual basis.

Counsellors at Forging Forward Counselling Services are with our clients on their journey, every step of the way! Our counsellor works with the client using approaches that foster self-determination and promote resiliency. We believe that people have a natural and intrinsic tendency to behave in effective and healthy ways. We understand that enduring recovery is an continuous process that requires a customizable treatment plan based on each client or group's specific needs.

I help youth and adults navigate mental health challenges, increase self-awareness, and intentionally go after and get what they want from life. I'm a warm, open, accepting counsellor. I care deeply about the wellbeing of those I serve, and I believe that if someone feels accepted and valued just as they are, it provides the perfect environment for them to recognize their strengths, build stronger connections to others, and walk away from those relationships that no longer serve them in a healthy way.

Taking a leap of trust and reaching out for help improved my life. My healing journey has informed me in my work as a therapist. I work from a stance of "what is right with you, and what have you done to get you from there to here?" I don't fix. I make suggestions, and you practice. I welcome your input, especially when you think I make mistakes. You will learn about the gifts of imagination, and what it means to become aware of inner resources already present within. Knowing the difference between anxiety, stress, and worry is life changing. Awareness of an inner life as well as an outer life brings one to a place of inner peace.
