Our professional team of Psychologists and Registered Dietitian's are here to help you build the skills and tools you need for recovery. Clinical programming is available in Nova Scotia, New Brunswick, Québec, and Newfoundland and Labrador. All sessions are virtual and delivered through a secure telehealth program called Jane. Our clinicians also recommend the app Recovery Record, which allows users to keep track of their meals, thoughts, feelings and behaviours and share them with treatment providers.

What would it feel like to share a space with someone that is giving you their undivided attention? A space without judgement, only curiosity about your story and who you are. It may be an unfamiliar image. All you need to do is show up and be whoever you need to be. I will offer you that space, and meet you where you're at. It can be frustrating not to understand why we are doing something that has undesirable results. It can be difficult to change a behavior that has an unknown cause. Maybe you are confused about how you are feeling or who you are. Whatever it is, I will hear you.

My three specialization are couples, individuals and families. I work to improve attachment and communication. We tackle those scripted cycles that can feel “stuck in a rut”. I use techniques and activities to deepen understanding and build intimacy. I work with a myriad of issues including trauma, addiction and burnout to name a few. I offer ways to help strengthen parenting skills in order to support children (Please note: I do not work alone with children). I work with adolescents with a focus on respect and strengthening skills for individuation. I hold a deep belief in supporting folks in finding resilience.

I'm Michele Gardiner, a registered Canadian Certified Counsellor with 17 years of clinical counselling experience helping individuals overcome challenges with Trauma Disorders (PTSD, CPTSD), Anxiety Disorders, Eating Disorders, and co-occurring mental health concerns such as BPD, Binge Eating Disorders, Body Image, Emotional Overeating, Depression, and Life Transitions. As a therapist and human being, I understand how seeking therapy can feel vulnerable and strive to ease this with a warm, professional and authentic approach that values you, your goals, and moves you towards those goals and lasting change, greater freedom and joy.

First and foremost, I provide clients with a space in which they feel safe, valued, comfortable, and heard. As someone with lived experience, I am all too familiar with the challenges of addiction and the destructive tendencies that accompany them. I want to validate your experiences: You are not alone. Let's take the first step together.

Are you struggling with anxiety, depression or emotional regulation difficulties? Do you feel like you are burdened by thoughts that are hindering your day to day life? My practice focuses on exploring the emotional and cognitive processes that impact your well-being on a personal, relational or family level. My approach aims at helping you develop concrete solutions for the issues at hand. My main goal is to offer you a safe space where you will feel heard and understood, but also supported in your quest to feeling better. I pay utmost attention to creating a therapeutical space where my clients can feel at ease.

I am the co-founder of the West Island Therapy and Wellness Centre. I have been working with children, teens, and their families for the past 20 years. I provide therapy and conduct assessments (psychological, psychoeducational, autism, developmental, etc). My particular area of interest is assessing and working with children and adults with learning disabilities, attention deficit / hyperactivity disorder, anxiety/depression, as well as behavioural and social problems. I earned a doctorate degree in Psychology from the Université du Québec à Montréal. I am a member in good standing with the Ordre des Psychologues du Quebec.

Mon client idéal est un adulte qui veut un allié, un thérapeute, un bras droit, pour lui être un support psychologique dans la tempête qu'est la vie. Il souhaite mieux se comprendre et travailler sur lui. Il sait où il veut aller, mais ne sait pas comment s'y rendre. Ainsi, je serais votre fidèle conseiller, celui qui vous dit les choses que vous avez besoin d'entendre, que vous aimiez cette chose... ou non.

I am an MSW graduate registered with the professional Order of Social Workers, Family and Marriage Therapists of Quebec (OTSTCFQ). My experience varies through different clinical settings and crisis intervention.

I work with individuals and couples who seek to improve their mental health and relationships. I work with individuals, who experienced trauma, struggling with anxiety, and/ or seeking meaning to life events. My unique life experience exposed me to different cultures and ways of living, which included the Middle East, Europe, and North America. I believe that relationships, mental health, and behaviors are better understood when body, mind, and context are examined simultaneously. I work with my clients to navigate through their experiences, including their spirituality, to create helpful meanings in their lives.

We all struggle sometimes and deserve support. Life can be hard, because of a conflict, transition, separation, loss, or because the world's sick and it's a lot harder for some to survive. It can help to talk, feel supported and heard by someone who can validate and understand our reality. I hope to create an environment full of care, including for queer and trans folks and their loved ones, and everyone living at the intersection of one or several forms of oppression. It's crucial for me to recognize and centre the expertise of each person over their own lived experience.

I believe that each us carries inherent goodness inside of us, and sometimes we can become stuck. As a therapist, I see my role as creating a space where you can feel supported to explore the parts of you that are hurting and also to nurture your own inner compassion and wisdom. Working from a non-pathologizing approach, I believe that all behaviour meets a need. The work of therapy is to develop a deeper understanding of what purpose protective mechanisms like addiction, anxiety, and self-harm have played in your life, and what you need to feel supported to grow and change.

Do you struggle with feelings of inadequacy, depression, intrusive thoughts, or anger beyond your control? Do you find yourself often in either withdrawing or pursuing patterns with loved ones? Are your coping mechanism no longer helpful? Have you experienced trauma or abuse? I can help you feel more balanced and in control. We can work on either present or past issues, whichever you choose, at your own pace.
