Welcome, and thanks for visiting my profile. First, a few words about my personal counselling style to help you determine if we'd be a good fit. My clients and friends describe me as warm, friendly, down-to-earth, encouraging, kind and humorous. I aim to create a counselling space that feels respectful, safe, open, honest and flexible. As we work together, you can expect me to meet you as a fellow traveler. We all experience ups and downs in this life; I draw on my own lived experience so I can relate to yours.

Since entering the field of social work, Hannah has been working as a Mental Health and Addictions Therapist in both urban and rural settings. Her therapeutic work has largely been focused on working with individuals and groups who experience anxiety, depression, addiction, concurrent disorders, trauma related symptoms, relationship conflict and other social issues. Hannah uses a holistic, person-centered approach to therapy which is grounded in trauma-informed, evidence-based techniques.

Today you have taken the first step to getting your life back. I know that mental health issues and life circumstances can leave you feeling overwhelmed, out of control, and without hope. BUT, don't believe everything your mind tells you! Regardless of the issues or circumstances that have brought you here, starting right now, you are on the road to recovery. Together, we will work to build the knowledge and skills that will enable you to manage and even overcome your issues, so you can start living the rich, meaningful life you want, today.

My approach is collaborative, flexible and rooted in a concern for social justice. I aim to provide space for you to explore and examine your values, preferences, strengths and actions, and what they may be influenced by, in a supportive, accepting environment. While I do have training in structured 'trauma therapies' I'm most interested in following your lead; I may bring in specific approaches or techniques that are tailored to you once we've developed a relationship, however my style overall is not highly structured or directive. I value what you bring to the process equally as much as my training or education.

Are you struggling in this crazy world? Do you feel anxious, sad, frustrated, angry, overwhelmed, and/or tired? Do you feel lost and alone, that no one understands you, that you are fighting your struggles alone? Is it difficult to muster the motivation and energy to do things you once enjoyed? Are you constantly embroiled in conflict with those you love? Do you wish things were better, that you felt better, that the pain, sadness, and conflict would go away and in its wake would come happiness, peace, contentment, and joy?

Life can sometimes feel like a rollercoaster where we’re not quite sure who or what is in the driver’s seat?! This rollercoaster may be in ‘full force’ motion, get temporarily stuck on a turn or come to a complete halt with system shutdown. In either case, our thoughts, feelings, body, behaviours, and relationships can be impacted. Most of us humans desire peace of mind, clarity, connection and the freedom to move forward in life with ease and grace. This is my invitation to you. My name is Michelle and I’m a Well-being Counsellor, Hypnotherapist and Body-Mind Coach.

Everyone needs additional support at times. Life can become tangled with mixed emotions and underlying thoughts or beliefs. There may be unexpected obstacles, challenges and changes in your life causing you to feel stressed, anxious or overwhelmed, or you may not identify with how you are feeling, but you have noticed that your mood and behaviours have changed. You may not be aware of the physical and/or social impact this may be having on your life. Together we can identify your inner strengths and develop additional strategies and tools to not only help you cope, but to support you and help you grow.

Mental illness can mean something different to every one of us. My goal is to meet you at whatever point you are at, and walk with you towards a recovery goal. Whether it be addiction, trauma, emotional issues, personality disorders, or something else, I can offer help through various therapeutic approaches. I work primarily from a client-centred approach, which means I believe you are the expert on yourself. I will help in identifying other treatment options and plans that can help you become the best version of yourself.
