Welcome – I’m glad you’re here.
Are you feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or exhausted from trying to manage everything on your own? Whether you’re struggling with anxiety, depression, substance use, or eating challenges like bingeing, restriction, or emotional eating — you don’t have to do this alone.
I’m Michelle, a clinical social worker with over 20 years of experience supporting adults (18+) through some of life’s most difficult challenges. I offer a warm, non-judgmental space where you can feel truly heard, respected, and supported.
What I help with:
• Anxiety & worry that won’t shut off
• Depression & low motivation
• Substance use concerns & addiction recovery
• Binge eating, restrictive eating, and body image struggles
• Life transitions, burnout, and feeling “not good enough”
Therapy with me isn’t about fixing you — it’s about helping you reconnect with yourself, discover new ways of coping, and move toward the life you want.
Convenient Virtual Therapy Across Nova Scotia. All sessions are held virtually, making it easy to access support from the comfort of your home — no commute, no added stress.
