Nicole Thomson, MA, RCCThere are many reasons people come to counselling: Needing help through a crisis, Wanting to change, Feeling stuck in life

I am available for personal counselling as well as online counselling. Personal growth. Setting aside time for reflection, So many other reasons! My mission is to create a safe space for you to feel comfortable, so you can consider and discuss anything that’s going on for you. If change is your focus, we will work together to figure out where you’re at, where you’d rather be, and how we will get you there.

Despite each person being so different, here are some guiding principles I base my all of my work around: I’ve studied how people can change, but you will always know more about you. What does this mean? We will work on your goals, and you are in charge. When you don’t want to talk about something, I respect that I won’t make annoying suggestions without knowing what you’ve tried.

We’ll work at your pace. This approach has a few names, some call it “client led” or “client centred. ”Why is it important? Sometimes, we go through so much, or we end up in situations that we really want to change, and so part of us wonders if we can trust our own judgment.

Therapy can be an amazing process, where we discover that we have good reasons for being the way we are, and that we all have a natural drive towards self-improvement. It’s part of my job to support and nurture that instinct, but it comes from within you.

Nicole is available for one-on-one counselling as well as online counselling sessions.
