Hello, my name is Miranda Parkinson and I am a Registered Provisional Psychologist. I have an undergrad in Education and I have a Master’s Degree in Counselling Psychology. I believe that everyone is capable of transformational change as well as the importance of normalizing that at times we all need support and guidance to facilitate us through this process. As a counsellor, I feel honoured to walk with my clients through their individual healing journeys toward lasting and meaningful change. I bring a calm energy to my sessions and I strive to create a warm, non-judgmental, caring, accepting, and safe environment for my clients.

Has life stress become too much? Do you feel like you are just surviving each day? You are not alone. Anxiety and mood issues can manifest in many forms, including low energy, irritability, anger, and more. Identifying and coping with the core issues can lead to better every day functioning and even gaining enjoyment out of life. How is your teen doing with not only school and peer pressure, but also the added stress of COVID-19 and isolation? Working with adolescents is a special area of interest of mine and I can help with issues such as anxiety, depression, bullying, suicidal ideation, and self-harm.

As owner, operator and lead clinician at Jennifer Berard & Associates, I believe that all people have an incredible capacity for change. I've had the honour to observe individuals, with seemingly insurmountable challenges, create meaningful and lasting change. My approach is client centered. I believe that you are the expert in your life and I aim to help you find your own strength, in your own time, at your own pace. I have extensive experience and training in the Addiction and Mental Health field, with specialized experience in the addictions, trauma, forensics and first responders.

I work with individuals who have survived traumatic life experiences. I understand their challenges, having gone through and overcome my own. Survivors of trauma realize that their pain patterns have changed them, and impacted their loved ones. Their goal is to find relief from their pain and agony, and their desire is to be heard, witnessed, understood, validated, and mended from the pain they carry as they find their inner healing. The pain and agony that was carried will be released in absolute privacy.

Clients are more than an issue or a diagnosis, and therapy needs to reflect this. People need to be understood in their entirety, and therapy should adapt to the whole of what they present. Clients are working to overcome the barriers of mental health struggles, while also trying to function in relationships, work, school, and other important domains of life; I want to help them thrive in all of these settings.

As a registered Social Worker for over 30 years, I offer extensive training, experience and a passion for a therapeutic approach in regard to supporting individuals who have experienced past traumas and/or present struggles. I believe in facilitating the healing process through an individual approach that is client-centred and non-judgmental. There are a variety of therapeutic methods which can facilitate the healing process. I strive to determine the most appropriate method based on open communication and with an understanding for the individual. Through a partnership, and established trust, the healing process is possible.

My ideal client is someone who acknowledges that their life is in need of some changes. Someone who continues to make the same mistakes over due to not having any other coping mechanisms. Someone who is eager to explore their negative habits and life patterns- and someone who is willing to share/reflect on their struggles with me. My ideal client is someone who is looking for healthy coping strategies and is willing to put in the work! It is not easy- but it will be worth it, I promise you that. You are worth it!

Are you surviving rather than thriving? Going through the motions but not really feeling 'it'? You are not alone! Whether you are feeling overwhelmed, stressed, sad, chronically anxious, depressed, unable to relax and enjoy life, or simply unclear about where to go or what to do next, there is hope! It is my goal and honour to work collaboratively with you, to support you in clarifying and creating the changes YOU are wanting to see in your life, as quickly and cost effectively as possible. I am consistently amazed by the courage and resilience of the human spirit to create and maintain change!

As a clinical social worker I have had the privilege of walking beside acutely ill and often terminal patients (and families). Many times those patients struggle with severe addiction and trauma, and want to find a different way to live. Even if addiction or trauma are not the primary issues, the pain. suffering and fear that accompanies a life limiting illness, mood disturbance, relationship conflict or loss, can be extraordinary. I believe people are the experts of their own lived experience. My job is to provide compassion, insight and direction (when required) for that pain, with the intention of creating a healing path forward.

Life is a gift and it's beautiful but sometimes it brings us challenges, that maybe difficult to navigate and resolve. Every life challenge has its underlying root causes. Whether they are past or present experiences. I firmly believe that nothing just happens. However, for every life challenge there is HOPE. Hope sustains us.
