Therapists in N2P

At times life can take us far away from ourselves, and each day can feel challenging. While therapy cannot remove our challenges, or erase our past, it can allow us to manage more effectively, and discover we are more resilient than we ever imagined. I work with youths and adults on a broad range of topics such as emotional regulation, anxiety, depression, PTSD/trauma, grief, postpartum depression, self-esteem/body image issues, and parenting or relationship challenges. If you are looking to change unhelpful patterns, unhealthy coping mechanisms, and want to build a more fulfilling life, take that first step and reach out.

I am a Registered Psychotherapist (Qualifying), and have a Master's Degree in Applied Psychology. I have over eight years of experience in providing mental-heatlh support to teenagers/students, adults, and families. I am dedicated to assisting others to live a life that includes joy and fulfillment, while also providing counselling support and strategies to support mental health concerns that are impacting the ability to live a full life. I am comfortable and have experience working with clients who are experiencing: anxiety, depression, mood disorders, life transitions, immigration challenges, and relationship/family stressors.

If you are feeling overwhelmed, depressed or anxious, our therapists can help you work through it. We understand how challenging it can be to reach out for help. You might be going through something that’s not easy to talk about and we believe that you are worthy of support. We at The Mind Collective are here to provide this reliable source of care for you whenever and wherever you need it.

I offer help with many issues stating from a particular problem you need to address to unresolved trauma and life coaching. I teach skills that help you to be emotionally stronger, to bounce back from stress, to be more effective in everything you do, to connect better with people. Unresolved trauma may manifest itself in low self-esteem, anxiety, depression, self-harm, short fuse, impulsivity, addiction, eating disorder, inability to maintain healthy relationships, perfectionism and more...You don't have to suffer alone. I offer support and treatment. People do heal! You can choose healing, and as a result, a better life.

When meeting with clients, I prefer to utilize a range of therapeutic approaches that best meet the needs of each client as a unique individual. Some of the primary approaches that I draw from include acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT), person-centred therapy, compassion-focused therapy (CFT), mindfulness, and cognitive-based approaches. In addition to traditional therapeutic approaches, I practice from an intersectional, anti-oppressive, and holistic lens to ensure that clients feel safe, respected, and understood.

Shalyn Dussiaume-Good is a Registered Psychotherapist and is currently working with a wide variety of clients with varying life issues. Her therapy models include using CBT (Cognitive Behavior Therapy) and DBT (Dialectical Behavior Therapy).

Perhaps you're down or anxious, feeling trapped or distressed? Maybe you're unsure about the future of a relationship, or just feel that you aren't living the life you want to lead? Whatever your needs may be, I am here to offer support and guidance. Therapy is a process of insight building, growth, and self-discovery. In my sessions I promote emotional intelligence, deeper emotional connection with others, and helping you broaden your understanding of your behaviours, feelings, or reactions (yes, we don't always know why we do some things we do). I have both the professional and life experience to help you get back on track. ​
